Torzon
High-volume English market. Escrow by default, BTC + XMR, rotating mirrors after DDoS weeks.
DarkScan
Where people went after Abacus
Migration map for Abacus searchers — live verified desks only.
Abacus market-link searches never really stopped after the July 2025 exit/shutdown era. This page is not another Abacus onion dump — DarkScan publishes no Abacus mirrors. It maps the six live desks researchers actually open when Abacus is gone.
Where this differs from the Abacus market-link page
The Abacus market link page is a single-brand archive: status, why onions may be empty or historical, phishing notes for that name. This alternatives page answers a different question — where researchers moved after Abacus — with a comparison of DarkScan’s six live verified desks and CTAs to each live market-link. We do not dump dead-brand onion strings here.
People leaving Abacus-shaped search intent usually split by need: high English volume toward Torzon; Monero-forward habits toward Drug Hub or Black Ops; Canada toward We The North; quieter/newer English stacks toward Catharsis or Omega.

Open a verified market link
Drug Hub
Multi-mirror Drug Hub endpoints. Save all three onions — rotation after load or DDoS is routine.
Catharsis
Catharsis market link trio — new English desk listing; compare every character against clones.
Omega
Omega market onion set — bookmark the full trio; phishing kits follow new brand publicity fast.
Black Ops
Black Ops onion published. Expect name-squat clones; compare the full string before login.
We The North
Canada corridor market. Smaller catalog, long uptime culture, PGP messaging.
Phishing warning
After a brand dies, clone kits reuse the old name hardest. Compare full onion strings from this desk’s live pages — never from ads, DMs, or “migration support” chats. Educational research only — not a buy recommendation.
