Estimates suggest Hydra Market was the darknet platform with the highest turnover worldwide — with sales of $1.35 billion in 2020 alone.



The world's largest illegal darknet marketplace has been shut down — with police in Germany seizing 543 Bitcoin.


Hydra Market has been accused of facilitating money laundering and the sale of narcotics.


The Russian-language darknet platform had been under investigation since August 2021, and the U.S. authorities were also involved in this operation.


According to German prosecutors, Hydra Market had been in operation since 2015 — and more than 17 million customers and 19,000 sellers had accounts on the platform.


One service allowed users to obfuscate the crypto transactions they completed through the platform, making investigations even harder for law enforcement.


Hydra Market's homepage has now been replaced by a message from German prosecutors.



At the time of writing, the Bitcoin seized has a cash value of $25 million.

Cakes you should taste before the end of the year

Chocolate and Almond Tiger Cake This almond cake depends on lenders, the little, typically ingot-formed cakes originally made in Paris in the last part of the 1880s. The baked good gourmet specialist Lasne made and named them for his stockbroker clients, keeping them simple and slick to eat on the run - piece of cake. Made with egg whites, ground nuts and a great deal of dissolved margarine, the formula is enticingly riffable. My beloved take is the tigré, a round, chocolate-dotted cake finished off with a spot of ganache. Years prior, I misread the name, and I've called them tiger cakes from that point forward. My play on the tiger is a huge cake, somewhat less rich than the first, go through with cleaved chocolate and covered with enough ganache to leave obvious smircesh. Stockbrokers be careful.
