DrugHub’s creators claim to be former staff members of WhiteHouseMarket, an extremely popular dark web market which closed its doors (without exit-scamming) in October 2022.
Trading on this good reputation appears to be working, as DrugHub has become a frontrunner in both number of listings and number of active vendors in recent months. Key features include Monero-only transactions, mandated PGP login, and a multi-vendor shopping cart system.
DrugHub recently absorbed the userbase of another platform, SuperMarket, after one of SuperMarket’s admins was alleged to have absconded with its customers’ on-site cryptocurrency.
