Quick Answers
Is using Torzon Market legal?
+Accessing a Tor marketplace through Tor Browser isn't itself illegal in most places. What's illegal depends entirely on what's bought or sold, and that varies by jurisdiction. This site doesn't offer legal advice on specific transactions.
Does this site sell anything or take deposits?
+No. This is a documentation and verification resource — no products, no crypto deposits, no accounts. Actual transactions happen on Torzon Market itself, reached through the addresses on the links page.
How do I access Torzon Market?
+Install Tor Browser, copy the current address from the links page, and register once you're through the captcha. Full walkthrough on the access page.
Why won't the site load?
+If a specific address won't load, check the links page for a current mirror. If Tor Browser itself can't connect, the access page covers bridges and other connection fixes.
Can I use a regular browser instead of Tor?
+No — .onion addresses only resolve inside Tor Browser. A regular browser can't open them at all, and typing one into Chrome or Firefox does nothing useful.
How secure is Torzon Market?
+Torzon documents PGP-encrypted messaging, escrow-held payments, and optional 2FA. None of that covers phishing clones or your own OPSEC mistakes — see the security page.
How does escrow protect an order?
+Payment sits in escrow until you finalize or a dispute is resolved — the vendor isn't paid on checkout. Full lifecycle and common mistakes on escrow and disputes.
What cryptocurrencies are supported?
+Bitcoin and Monero. The trade-offs between them, plus fee details, are on the features page; for acquiring XMR privately, see buying Monero without KYC.
Are there fees beyond the crypto network fee?
+An escrow fee applies on completed transactions, on top of the standard network fee for whichever coin you use. Rates are detailed on the features page.
What if I forgot my password?
+Recovery runs through a PGP-encrypted message to support from inside the market, with proof of account ownership — there's no email-based reset. Write down credentials offline when you register.
How do I contact support?
+Through the market itself once logged in, via a PGP-encrypted ticket system. This site has no contact form or support desk — it's documentation only.
Can I use Torzon Market on mobile?
+It's possible but not advisable. Mobile devices leak data through installed apps, GPS, and carrier metadata in ways that are harder to control, and PGP setup is more limited than on desktop.
What happens if a vendor doesn't deliver?
+Don't confirm receipt — open a dispute instead, so staff can review the order before escrow releases. Details on how disputes work.
How do I know if a vendor is reliable?
+Rating alone isn't enough — account age, review detail, and response time matter more. See how to read vendor feedback.
Are there country restrictions?
+The market is reachable from anywhere Tor works. Some countries block Tor at the network level, which needs a bridge rather than being a market-side restriction. Vendor shipping and product availability vary independently by region.
