Market Notes
Four years of operation without a documented exit scam is unusual — most markets close within one. Abacus has maintained this record partly through conservative operations: it has not aggressively marketed itself as the dominant market, which reduces law enforcement targeting. Its multisig-by-default policy is a buyer-friendly choice that protects users who do not know to look for the option.
Safety Checklist
| ✅ Verify PGP-signed address before every session | |
| ✅ Select multisig escrow — never standard escrow | |
| ✅ Encrypt shipping address with vendor PGP key | |
| ✅ Enable 2FA immediately on account creation | |
| ✅ Use Monero rather than Bitcoin | |
| ✅ Withdraw wallet balance immediately after each transaction | |
| ❌ Never finalize early (FE) without extensive vendor history | |
| ❌ Never reuse shipping addresses | |
| ❌ Never leave funds in the market wallet between sessions |
