Core protocol — 04 guarantees

Engineered so the market cannot steal

Four non-negotiable guarantees. Each maps to a documented procedure in the archive sections below.

No Custody

2-of-3 multisig / per order

Each deal spawns a fresh multisig address. Nexus holds no balance, so exit-scam is cryptographically impossible. Details in /crypto/.

PGP Identity

Challenge login / signed mail

Your key is your account. Every order and dispute is PGP-signed; logins use challenge decryption. Ritual in /opsec/.

Staked Reputation

Bond + trust weight

Vendor bond plus escrow-weighted score makes review farming a net-loss game. Economics in /marketplace/.

Signed Mirrors

Rotation + canary phrase

Onions rotate roughly every 72h and are PGP-signed; your personal canary phrase exposes clones. Protocol in /mirror/.

Where to start

Three steps before you touch escrow

Read in order. Each step takes minutes and eliminates the most common loss vectors.

1. Verify first, trust never

Documentation describes checking the PGP signature of the announcement, confirming the personal canary phrase renders, and requiring a PGP challenge at login. The full ritual is documented in /mirror/.

2. Fund with dust

Researchers describe a sub-$20 test escrow to learn the release flow before larger amounts. How 2-of-3 signing is documented is in /crypto/.

3. Master PGP

Documentation notes that decrypting a challenge is the baseline readiness check before mainnet funds. Baseline setup is in /opsec/. Open questions are answered in /faq/.

Authority signal: we don't sell, host products, or handle funds. We publish the map and mark where dragons live. This gateway is a research archive, not a storefront: we publish structure, procedure and history; any transactions occur only inside the Tor environment after independent verification.
