Its not hard to find a link to the site but this message is kinda sketchy:
"To avoid the registration of spam accounts and fraud activity in the market, we introduce additional user verification using small amount of BTC. The volume of payment is generated at random by our system for each profile. This payment will appear in your profile balance and can be spent on any goods or can be withdrawed to another Bitcoin address. "
Amount: 0.0041 BTC
Address: 13HMeimPJQU3ttsg89EUXUjzHAhdxUK3sS
I've done a lot of business on this site over the years and they've never asked for btc in order to register. Spam accounts might be an issue but wouldn't 2 bucks be just as effective in confirming that you're a real person as much as 47$ would?

Um, Dream is long gone. Use dark.fail to find a viable alternative. I suggest Empire.

We are ~36 hours into Empire Market being completely offline. Last year extended periods of downtime were common before the Endgame DDoS enhancement was released.
After months of nearly perfect uptime, this downtime feels more stressful than the frequent Empire downtimes of 2019. - Empire
Any alternate ideas?
