Ladies and gentlemen,
I would like to announce our new home:
http://silkroad5v7dywlc.onion
As I have always stated, even with Silk Road itself, you should act at all times as though any site or marketplace you visit has been compromised from the very beginning. That is the only way to ensure that you do not become lax with your security.
Do not fall into a false sense of security at any time on any site. Do not get comfortable. When you get comfortable you get confident, when you get confident you get cocky, and when you get cocky you get caught.
With the necessary security warnings out of the way, I look forward to seeing you all over on the new site. Let LE waste their time and resources whilst we make a statement to the world that we will not allow jackbooted government thugs trample our freedom.
We are born free, yet moments later we are shackled by the rule of law. It is time, once again, to break free of those shackles.
Libertas

Excellent news libertas.
I was already over there, but hesitant to believe...
-
Is this real. Ive been gone for a while and Im not up on everything, Ive got loads of reading to do.
Are we talking like the same site, are the vendor accounts from before all still there. Are vendors able to use their old name and password to get in or is it like a totally new site starting again and the old vendors have to buy new accounts. ?
I know I could check it out but Im hesitant about doing anything.
Oh please god, let this be true.

Flyspray, here are a few key facts for you:
1. The marketplace is not up-and-running yet
2. The forum already has many ex-Silk Roaders signed up
3. Many of the senior staff from the original Silk Road are involved in this project
4. Previous vendor stats will be lost
5. Original Silk Road vendors who can prove their identity to admin will be given a vendor account without having to pay the fee, and the verification procedure is fairly sophisticated
I hope this helps a little.
