[GeneralQuestions] Is it safe to come out yet? ;(

Made a handful of purchases on Evo before it disappeared. Looking to make a few more on a different DNM but I'm not sure where to go with my money at this point.

Agora and Blackbank appear to be the go to markets based off what I read here. When I try to go to Blackbank from the link in the marketplace list I get an unresolved address and I've seen some things with Agora in regards to transactions not working or something.

So my question is, if I tumble my coins where should I go with it in the next 24 hours so as to avoid marketplace issues and have the only possible issues be vendor related? Both vendors I'm looking to deal with are apparently both on BB and Agora.

BlackBank's got my vote - the downtime you experienced today is very much the exception to the rule - they've been up literally every time Ive tried to get on until today - and it was a pretty intense DDOS attack that had them busy, which they resolved quickly.

Agora on the other hand, as much nostalgia as I have for them, they're down almost every time I try to get on, and it has been that way for a LONG time now. Just look at their uptime stats. Its sad. Couple that with two outright freezing of withdrawls/deposits in the last 30 days - and I had to leave. Tinfoil hat Delvx believes agora is trying to scare away their own user base for some reason. Like this is their form of a 'going out of business' sign. But either way - its just too unstable these days.

On one hand BlackBank is down far less than Agora these days.

 

On the other hand, Agora has many more listings and vendors than BlackBank.

 

Since you're trying to make a purchase tomorrow I would say go with BlackBank, unless you can't find a particular product that you want. It's also worth looking around Agora though because you might be able to find some better deals than you would get on BlackBank, even if it might take a few extra days for your order to ship due to site downtime.

Blackbank worked fine for me. Just made a purchase, vendor confirmed. Sent coins and they showed up after about 35 minutes.

If I was a vendor I would be moving all my coins off Agora as soon as possible. In the last two months I think that site has been down more than it's up.

Maybe I'm just lucky but Agora has been working fine for me the past two weeks

Was just able to get on both Agora and BB consecutively. Agora seems more stable.
