01 Configure Tor Environment
The Nexus infrastructure operates exclusively within the hidden service network to ensure sovereignty and data integrity. Standard HTTP browsers are incompatible with the .onion protocol utilized by the Nexus Market URL.
Users must deploy the Tor Browser Bundle. This software routes traffic through a decentralized network of volunteer relays, effectively masking the origin IP address and wrapping the session in multi-layered encryption. Ensure you are running the latest stable build for optimal compatibility with our frontend architecture.
02 Initiate Connection
Accessing the ecosystem requires a valid entry node. We provide a signed, rotational list of mirrors to ensure high availability and load balancing. Using the official Nexus Market link below guarantees connection stability and bypasses network congestion.
Latency Warning: Initial handshake may take 10-30 seconds depending on network circuit length.
03 DDOS Mitigation & Handshake
Upon establishing a route to the Nexus onion service, you will encounter the perimeter defense system. This layer protects the marketplace from denial-of-service attacks.
- Queue System: During high traffic, you may be placed in a priority queue. Do not refresh.
- Challenge Response: A rotating captcha must be solved to verify human interaction.
- Session Token: Once verified, your browser is issued a temporary session token for navigation.
04 Identity Creation
The Nexus Market requires no personal identification. Account creation is strictly pseudonymous. The registration process generates a cryptographic seed for account recovery.
Credentials
Select a high-entropy password and a unique PIN code. These are hashed client-side before transmission.
Mnemonic Seed
The system will display a 12-word mnemonic sequence. Save this offline immediately. It is the only mechanism to restore access if credentials are lost.
05 PGP 2FA Implementation
For maximum account integrity, PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) implementation is mandatory for vendor accounts and highly recommended for buyers.
Navigate to User Settings and paste your Public PGP Key. Enable 2-Factor Authentication (2FA). On subsequent logins, the server will present an encrypted message that only you can decrypt, ensuring that even if your password is intercepted, the account remains inaccessible to unauthorized entities.
06 Wallet Funding
The platform operates on a decentralized wallet system. Supports Bitcoin (BTC), Monero (XMR), and Litecoin (LTC).
Navigate to the 'Wallet' tab to generate a unique deposit address. Note that Monero (XMR) is recommended for optimal privacy due to its ring signature architecture. Funds typically require 2 network confirmations before becoming available for market operations.
