Darknet market

Sheep Marketplace was a darknet market that launched in March 2013 and was one of the lesser known sites to gain popularity with the well publicized closure of the Silk Road marketplace later that year. It ceased operation in December 2013, when it announced it was shutting down after a vendor stole $6 million worth of users' bitcoins.2 Wikipedia text CC BY-SA 4.0
