[Darknet Analysis] How NOT to Launch a Darknet Market - Blackhole's Epic Fail[s]

Let's check out the recent horrific launch of Blackhole Market, a darknet market that has already shown itself as an absolute trainwreck. From its disastrous choice to host on Amazon Web Services (AWS) to using Microsoft's IIS for it's server technology, the developers behind this market have made one poor decision after another. We'll go through the glaring security issues, broken user interface, and fundamental flaws that make this market one of the worst in a long time.

I'll explain why hosting a darknet market on AWS is not just a bad idea but outright reckless and why using IIS is a massive red flag for anyone concerned about their security and anonymity. We'll also look at how their CAPTCHA system, which is supposed to keep bots out, is so poorly implemented that it actually gives away the answers in plain text—making it a hacker's dream.

Throughout this analysis, I'll highlight why these mistakes are more than just technical oversights; they point to a fundamental lack of understanding of running a secure and trustworthy darknet market. Whether you're a potential user, a developer, or just curious about how these markets work, this video will give you a clear view of why Blackhole Market is something you should steer clear of.
