Topic: [2014-05-07] Silk Road 2.0 Now Larger Than Silk Road Ever Was - page 2. (Read 4749 times)
I visited the original one a few times, never bought anything. I'll have to check out SR2 if it's still around one of these days.
True,I should have pointed out that I meant there are lots of other markets on The darknet that do use escrow,safely
The other markets don't have the variety which SR 2.0 offers. Most of them have only two or three active vendors, and at the most 100 items on display. Compare that to the SR 2.0, which is having thousands of active vendors and tens of thousands of merchandise.
Escrow is not safe either.
Plenty of site operators have stolen escrow funds.
Multisig escrow is the only way you can even claim your money is safe

I would be very weary about using SR2.0, or any of the many others out there. I just know how easy it would be to rob someone on there/get scammed....
Rubbish,how do you easily get scammed by escrow,
it's used on this very site for safety and SL2, idiot
They removed the escrow last time I checked, and that's how people got scammed.

Well the way to go is to make escrows off site and decentralised, which is what I think they plan to do. For these markets to survive they need to be fully decentralised really.
If they take-away the escrow, then it becomes a peer-to-peer trading in SR 2.0. Nothing wrong in that, although it is riskier. But right now I am hearing about a lot about accounts of established vendors being hacked and further used for conning the unsuspecting buyers.
I suspect a lot of them are using the 'hacked' excuse. I think most just probably turned and took advantage of the lack of escrow. Do they not have any form of 2-factor auth on vendor accounts?
What if Silk Road 2.0 didn't have any customers, but claimed they did, then claimed they were hacked, then claimed all it's customers were to be made whole, with nobody complaining because there were no customers in the first place. Now that the hole is plugged sans a leak, trust is now established to garner real customers to participate in the long con.
What if Bitcoin is make believe and everyone has been hired to play a prank on you?

I think that they should bring back the Escrow. Without escrow, buyers will be conned by people who hack in to the accounts of reliable vendors. But that said, if they bring back the escrow, then they will have to worry about another robbery.

I meant just the fact of using drugs shouldn't be illegal. Obviously the caveat of as long as you're not harming anyone else applies here. I don't think alcohol should be illegal, but drink driving obviously should be and quite rightly is so.
What if a person is able to drive drunk without harming anyone? Should driving be illegal?
Nah. If someone plants a bomb and it doesn't kill anyone then that doesn't mean they're not guilty of a crime.

Or, maybe it has survived so long because it is the Feds running this site? Is that beyond the realm of reason?
Possible, and there is no easy way to tell for certain.
I've never visited either Silk Road, but they make for an exciting story.
same here, i dont even know how to access it

Anyway, this is offtopic. More power to Silk Road 2.0!

Most of the time stopping cold turkey wont kill you and continuing to take the drugs is far more dangerous. And I smoked for about a year in high school and just decide to stop one day. It's not easy, but it really is just down to your own willpower. Same goes for any other drugs. People can do a lot of things if they only put their mind and willpower to it.
But most People are just not going to do that.When you really think about laws, you have to take in account, that they are for everyone, also the stupid ones and I don't even trust the average Person with this issue. If it is really no Problem at all to just legally try out some Heroin, we would have more drug addicts, which will never get away from their addiction, than any System(regardless which Country) can handle.
We can't be responsible for the actions of others, nor does anybody have the right to tell an adult what he can and cannot put into his body. And making drugs illegal doesn't stop people from taking them, it just pushes their use underground and makes criminals out of the users and cartels and kingpins out of the suppliers.
I don't understand, why you suddenly turned to this Extrem-Anarcho-POV.
Some post earlier, you did recognize laws.
Alcohol can make you see other people as monsters and can also turn you into one. Logic should be used in most of these cases. You shouldn't smoke or drink whilst pregnant, and you shouldn’t do any other drugs either as they all harm your baby.
If you are addicted and realize you are pregnant, it is not like you can just stop taking drugs. That's the Definition of an addiction.I know that alcohol isn't as safe as most People think, but there are still a lot of worse stuff out there.
All it ever takes is for an addict to just stop, and they're not just harming themselves anymore but another, and they should have help with that, and if they don't stop then that could be punishable by law.
You're confusing yourself and not getting what I'm saying as these are not comparable at all. How can we be responsible for what other people choose to do? We can punish them if their actions effect others though, but that is their choice they made. I am not responsible for what you do and vice versa, but if either of us do something that harms or endangers others then we can be punished by law for that careless/reckless crime.
