The Nexus Handbook

A short guide you can read straight through. By the end you will know what Nexus is, how to reach the real market, how to pay without leaving a trail, and how the escrow keeps you covered.

This handbook is written to be read in order the first time. Each chapter builds on the one before it, so if you are new to Nexus, start at the top and work down. If you have used it before and want one thing, the contents just below jump you straight there.

A word on what this is. It is a guide, not the market and not a shop. It sells nothing and it stores nothing about you. Its only job is to get you onto the real Nexus safely and to explain how the place works before you have money on the line.

What the chapters cover

Chapter one is what Nexus actually is and why it has the reputation it does. Chapter two gets you onto it safely, the part where most mistakes happen. Chapter three is money, the two coins it takes and which one to use. Chapter four is ordering and escrow, how a deal holds together. Chapter five is the handful of habits that keep you out of trouble. Read them in that order and nothing later will surprise you.

When you are ready to reach the market, every chapter carries the verified links at the foot of the page. Copy one, open it in Tor Browser, and confirm the address on the login screen before you sign in.
