Operational Briefing
Accessing Drughub Market requires strict adherence to security protocols. The platform operates exclusively on the Tor network to ensure cryptographic anonymity for all vendors and buyers. This documentation outlines the exact steps to verify the market signature, establish a circuit, and initialize a secure session.
01 Tor Network Configuration
The Drughub Darknet infrastructure is not accessible via standard clear-net browsers. You must utilize the Tor Browser (The Onion Router) to resolve our .onion V3 addresses.
Tor routes your connection through three random volunteer nodes (Guard, Middle, Exit), encrypting the traffic at each step. This process masks your IP address from the marketplace server, ensuring your physical location remains undisclosed.
02 Establish Secure Connection
Connection integrity is paramount. Utilize the official Drughub Onion address listed below. This address is cryptographically generated and cannot be spoofed on the Tor network.
Latency Note: Initial connection may take up to 45 seconds while the Tor circuit is built. If the connection times out, generate a new Tor identity (Ctrl+Shift+U) and retry.
03 Identity Registration
The Drughub Market platform operates on a zero-knowledge basis. We do not require emails or personal data. Registration creates a cryptographic container for your wallet and messages.
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Username | Unique identifier, case insensitive. Do not use cross-platform handles. |
| PIN Code | 6-digit numeric code required for all XMR withdrawals. |
| Mnemonic | 12-word recovery phrase. MUST be stored offline. |
04 PGP 2-Factor Authentication
To harden your account against unauthorized access, adding a PGP Public Key is highly recommended. This enables 2FA (Two-Factor Authentication).
- 1. Generate a 4096-bit RSA key pair using GPG or Kleopatra.
- 2. Navigate to Account Settings > Security on the marketplace.
- 3. Paste your Public Key. The server will challenge you with an encrypted message.
- 4. Decrypt the message to retrieve the validation code.
Once enabled, login requires decrypting a unique token, rendering password theft useless.
