-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 We have passed the 100.000 users milestone and we are pushing yet another update. Notable changes: - - Vendors can have promoted listings on the front page. Only 8 spots are available and they are auctioned every Monday. Vendors can see details under Account - Vendor Tools. Most likely at the time you read this message the auction is open. Sticky listings are coming with a future update. - - Added a special API for vendors to be able to manage their messages, orders and disputes much easier while maintaining our enforced end to end encryption. Details under Account - Vendor Tools. - - Changed the "Account" page. - - All images are now accepted, not just JPEG. - - New captcha system on the front servers. - - Removed registration and login captcha requirements. - - Removed the option to get refunds to external addresses as things were sometimes confusing. Refunds are added to market wallet and they can be withdrawn or used as a full/partial payment for next orders. Please pay attention to your pending order page, details on the amounts are shown there. - - Improved order page for vendors: added pagination, order message opens in a panel, order actions can be performed from the order message panel. - - Improved messages page: added pagination, message filters, clarification on key usage. - - Messages linked to active orders can no longer be deleted until the order is finalized or canceled. - - Added "Simple Search" and a new front page. Top 20 vendors are picked up by their final sales (by XMR amounts) for the last 45 days as we don't keep order records longer then that. They are displayed randomly for privacy reasons. - - We now have 8 balanced, permanent mirrors. - - Bug fixes, UI and backend tweaks.

Access to old key is required before changes. Back up your PGP key and do not lose it. Treat it with the same respect you treat your cryptocurrency wallets (or real wallets for that matter). Except under very special circumstances if you lose access to your PGP key you lose access to your account. If your key expired you won't be able to log in, however you can contact us, sign a message with your old key and we will restore access. Speaking of PGP: STOP using Igolder! You are basically GIVING your address to a third party. If you don't care about that maybe you care about the fact that some vendors cannot decrypt Igolder messages. Use a modern PGP client, most of them are point and click. * Order payment window has been increased to 120 minutes (two hours). That is more then enough to make a payment. Payments received after the order is canceled may be lost, so if paying by Bitcoin make sure you use a decent transaction fee. Stop paying your orders from online wallets / exchanges. Send the coin to your local wallet first because paying from online wallets / exchanges: - - Is dangerous for your privacy. - - Some of them add extra verification/delays and you won't make the 2 hour window. - - Some use a ridiculously low transaction fee and the transaction will be delayed. Transfer to your local wallet first and don't be cheap on the transaction fee. Late payments create unnecessary support work and you may lose your coins. * Order history and messages are now deleted after 45 days instead of 30. * Users can edit feedbacks for 30 days after an order is finalized (escrow released). * Added "Top 20 Vendors" based on number of sales and feedback. * Added random sort to "Search". * On "Your orders" page we added the exact time when the auto finalize can be extended or the order can be disputed. On the order tab you will find a yellow box showing the exact date and time when Dispute and Extend AF buttons will be available. Eg: "You can dispute/extend AF between 2020-02-28 18:44:51 and 2020-02-29 18:44:51 (UTC)" * Added two new V3 mirrors: 3ffonw4wo7npl2rxld5dlhskesekyermcyickdtaa3ca3quindctnfqd.onion flkzk2qjqe2yo5etsb7klxjihgrj7bi54k3iscccvkk7xbkif6x5etad.onion * Bug fixes and stability improvements.

Those are a bit obfuscated and are shown as 0-10, 10-20, 20-30 and so on, because some vendors don't want their exact sales numbers made public. Note: This feature has been introduced recently. Since we don't keep order records for too long, some vendors may show lower sales numbers then real ones. Orders older then ~ 40 days will not be added. * All vendor reviews are now visible. Number of reviews does not equal the number of sales so that shouldn't be a problem for vendors. * Changed customer stats on the Login page: "Active" customers are the ones who added a PGP key to their account, "All" are the ones who registered (PGP ones included). We decided to allow customers without a PGP key to browse listings, but nothing more. Maybe they find something they like and decide to learn PGP. We also stopped deleting them. * Details on how long we keep some data: - - - Pending orders canceled for non-payment: deleted after 5 days. - - - Finished orders (canceled, canceled by staff, finalized): deleted after 15 days. - - - Vendor sales records under "Your Earnings" page: deleted after 30 days. - - - Messages (all of them, old or new): deleted after 30 days. - - - Withdrawals and refund records: deleted after 30 days. Note: For users who decide to remove their account, everything is deleted immediately or their user name replaced by "[deleted user]". * Added direct links for vendor info and vendor listings: Vendor info: http://anymarketlink/vendor/vendorname Vendor listings: http://anymarketlink/shop/vendorname * Made some things more obvious, like order statuses. * Added more automated messages on order status changes. * Some bug fixes here and there. * Vendors please remember: You can set the auto-finalize timer for your orders, and it starts at 5 days. If your FE application is denied you can re-apply after some successful orders, and you won't have money locked in escrow for too long. Your AF time is a bit randomized so an adversary won't know exactly when you were online and marked the order as "Complete". * Customers please remember: You can extend the AF timer or open a dispute 24 hours before the timer expires. The timezone is UTC. If you care about your orders keep an eye on them, don't let the timer expire and don't finalize your orders until you receive your product. Also keep in mind some vendors don't work on weekends and given this particular time of the year delays are to be expected. Before opening a dispute try to sort it out with your vendor first. * It has been brought to our attention that there are some phishing pages impersonating us, thanks darknetlive for pointing that out. Check our PGP key from multiple sources, check our signed canary / mirror list and if you are too lazy to check PGP signatures at least make sure your links are from valid sources. As of now the only trusted sources for legit mirrors are: - Darknetlive: darknetlive.com / darknet7rl4epe24.onion - Dark dot Fail: dark.fail / darkfailllnkf4vf.onion - Our Dread sub: dreadditevelidot.onion/d/WhiteHouseMarket - Our Envoy sub: envoys5appps3bin.onion/index.php?board=136.0 (Sources are not listed in a particular order) If you do get phished and you lose your money, there's nothing we can do about it, so mirror checking is important. * We will be working on holidays too, so if you need us we will be around. * Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everybody! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEc4TySQeVvYawDu/c067gT8TGAH4FAl3+SlIACgkQ067gT8TG AH5SQxAApeBAoy2f6iFROHzckMtFat4X7hcvtSIZyMDtj5gEmJP2eem00LjVIroH z2mr7e3wQ6ujewwHfUbY7uZRVda+ZDizdztJNqIhrVBPJ5YFJ383a2BXpgBmYSAT E53KJNlxheNhCu8JZvZHqoy+uMj4KHO5pZR765L1wCqF/fmF0RuXvL4iJ2zoCf0L e2nwFvbITM5r+2Q3nN7TaQ7IP9LsIyU5FdI8GvH8z2HgOrvLuCfWhH0gCgQ0cfBQ V2A9pNwLbi7bwqkaoSVFWg0x9LSjrhy4oDp1pIyHLgPAF5C2c6sIIkpsvw4s2eW3 FQl3VvHNh7G1ZYuA2V3v2DQsZMNf70uMqgO8VlZcF38+jA2IbpjQB2iJbe+4Oo+0 oDOZ8tTQomXI9u0ObUO76cjujBH2dA95e+u6zCtnn6knDFs6RLEtc5vpVVUBq9mW KjfDbqg026T48pXkIKvZGylD7C+l+LIuhUlXHZwdUCDU3U4YaQYxiJnpuHNnyM1o +E/E1JJruGdVYvQfB0p8cc8DZkFq4948SY2jzZC6dhFchvVJuYi/WJGxf12YE/8d lW6VQOGvUyCUHsLm37rruUJlbQnu7zWVujBj6IdiTkm/HflrkhBP2K36k+8UbmKQ ljrpQXFJxfoQoTxAQ+P+FqCdPz6E8y/KHbgmdRi5nVLRfQD8/WM= =0Fu5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Changelog December 14 2019 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 * Added GBP, AUD and CAD. On the Gallery page prices will be displayed in all supported fiat currencies. * Added QR code on the payment page. * Added email alerts. Only .onion addresses are accepted. Alerts are PGP encrypted and everything works the same way as jabber alerts. * Added animated PGP guides for several operating systems and clients. * Receiver's PGP key name and email are shown on the send message/reply page. It will make key lookup easier. * Bug fixes, UI and backend improvements. UI is now more mobile friendly for users who insist on accessing DNMs from mobile devices. * Increased the order payment window to 90 minutes. * Reached ~ 13500 users: ~1000 vendors, ~12500 buyers (~7000 added their PGP keys) and ~3800 active listings. Only for buyers: Since many buyers, against all recommendations, pay for their orders via exchanges anyway, we thought of making things easier for you. Now you can pay for your orders by Bitcoin, using a 3rd party exchange service. Please keep this in mind: * Bitcoin payments are processed via a 3rd party exchange service. We do not have a BTC wallet and we are still XMR only. The order flow is: 1. You place your order and you get to the payment page. 2. You will be given the option to pay by Bitcoin. 3. If you choose to, you will be taken to an Exchange page. 4. You send BTC to the exchange. 5. The exchange sends XMR to your order address. 6. Once everything is confirmed, your order is sent to vendor and the difference refunded. * This option is highly experimental, support for it is limited, may be buggy and may be removed in the future. * You will be introducing a 3rd party into your transaction (the exchange). The exchange will know the BTC origin and the XMR destination. * This will be more expensive, as the exchange fees and rate fluctuation need to be covered. The extra amount will be refunded either to your XMR refund address or to your market wallet. * Refunds are only sent out via XMR. We don't have a BTC wallet. So you will need to learn how to use XMR, eventually. * Use a decent Bitcoin transaction fee. Everything has to happen within 1 hour. If you send the payment too late your coins can be recovered but you may lose money due to rate fluctuation. * Save your exchange ID until your transaction is complete. If things go wrong you may need it. * Keep an eye on your pending order until it shows a status change (canceled, refunded, sent to vendor). If the payment is sent too late and you contact us within a reasonable amount of time, we can help you. If you contact us more then 5 days later we can't help you, as we don't keep records for too long. 90 minutes is more then enough for a payment to be sent, and how you manage your payment is your responsibility. * Bitcoin payments are not under our control. If we do get the XMR for your order we can help you, otherwise we can't. * Learn how to use Monero. This option has no effect on vendor accounts. Thank you for your business and Happy Holidays to everybody!
