Seven boards in this directory

This editorial directory compares 7 darknet community hubs by access, registration, focus, and status. 7 onion addresses come from the forum data. Dread can surface status claims and scam alerts, but a forum thread does not verify a shop address. Pair this list with Tor phishing detection and the darknet market catalog.

Some market cards mention an in-house board (Omega is one). Those die with the shop. The 7 names below are external hubs. Longer history: Darknet forums as infrastructure.

Breaking Bad

Chemistry-themed board that public directories file as a darknet chemists’ hub — not a Hidden Wiki onion dump and not a market card.

onion.live lists Breaking Bad Forum as a community of chemists, with threads and vendor-style listings around reagents, drugs, and synthesis guides, plus advice from other posters. A March 2024 admin-signed PGP note on that directory repeats a set of clearnet fronts and a Tor mirror. We record that catalog role on this hub, not as a darknet-market card: the listing is a board first. We do not publish synthesis methods, recipes, or shop onions from a forum row.

Independent press coverage is thin next to Dread. The name is a television-show joke, not a brand we can treat as one shop. Directory comments and a 2025 hobby OSINT note describe open registration plus later bazaar talk; that is gossip, not a census. This row is not Check Point’s unrelated 2021 headline about job-seekers on hacking forums.

Darknet Army

Founded 2022

English-language hacking and carding board (DNA) that threat-intel write-ups treat as a mid-tier underground hub — not a Hidden Wiki onion dump.

Flare’s 2025 forum round-up dates a public DarkNetArmy Forums launch to 2022, after a prior DNA community on Telegram and smaller boards, with both a clearnet front and a Tor mirror. Membership is described as free access plus tiered vendor ranks; deals often leave the board for other channels. onion.live’s Darknet Army Forum blurb matches that shape: hacking and carding threads, a verified-sellers marketplace, and escrow advertised for premium members. Escrow on a forum card is a tag, not protection.

This row is not DarkForums, the 2022 DARK4RMY board that later absorbed BreachForums traffic — overlapping names, different catalogs. We do not print tutorials or combo lists.

Dread

Founded 2018

The largest darknet forum — community intelligence hub for market status, scam alerts, and OPSEC discussion.

Dread is a Tor-only discussion board, not a shop. HugBunter launched it in 2018 after Reddit banned r/darknetmarkets that March. The layout copies Reddit: topic boards (subdreads), votes, optional accounts. Wikipedia records about 12,000 registered users within three months and lists HugBunter and Paris as administrators. Reading does not require a login.

In September 2019 a dead-man’s switch fired during a weeks-long outage. HugBunter later blamed a server failure; the board returned in November with a rebuilt interface and some recent posts gone. Denial-of-service against onion sites is ordinary weather. A thread is a claim until it is PGP-signed.

Market staff sometimes post signed status there, and seizure or exit-scam talk often appears first in public threads. We still do not treat a Dread post as a verified onion for a catalog card.

OnionForum

JavaScript-free Tor forum that public directories list for threads, replies, votes, and karma — not a Hidden Wiki onion dump and not a market card.

onion.live lists OnionForum as an online forum with threads, replies, up/down voting and karma, plus per-post tipping, and as fully JavaScript-free so it works in Tor Browser’s Safest mode. That directory marked the listing Online with one reachable mirror at last check. We record that catalog role. We do not treat an OnionForum thread as a signed canary or a source of shop onions.

Independent press coverage is thin next to Dread. onion.live does not publish a registration policy or a founding year on the listing we used; we do not invent those fields. Older paste dumps sometimes reuse the name OnionForum with short v2 onions — those strings are not this row.

Suprbay

The Pirate Bay’s discussion forum, listed by public directories for torrenting, file sharing, and digital freedom — not a Hidden Wiki onion dump and not a market card.

onion.live lists Suprbay as the official forum for The Pirate Bay, covering torrenting, file sharing, and digital freedom. That directory marked the listing Online with three reachable mirrors at last check, including clearnet fronts and a Tor onion. We record that catalog role on this hub, not as a shop card: the listing is a board first. We do not treat a Suprbay thread as a signed canary or a source of shop onions.

Independent press coverage is thin next to Dread. onion.live does not publish a registration policy or a founding year on the listing we used; we do not invent those fields. Older v2 strings sometimes circulate for the same name — those strings are not this row.

Tenebris

Secondary discussion hub — redundancy when Dread experiences downtime.

Tenebris appears in editorial directories as a smaller Reddit-style board for market talk and clone warnings. Independent press coverage is thin next to Dread.

Its listed job is continuity when Dread is unreachable. We do not treat it as a second source of verified shop onions.

Zeroday

OPSEC-styled Tor board that public directories also file as a shop for high-tier access, exploits, and digital goods.

onion.live lists Zeroday as a high-security, OPSEC-focused forum and marketplace for high-tier access, exploits, and digital goods. An admin-signed PGP note on that directory repeats the same blurb. We record that catalog role on this hub, not as a darknet-market card: the listing is a board first, and we do not print shop onions from a forum row.

Independent press coverage is thin next to Dread. Third-party directory comments describe a closed, English-language community; that is gossip, not a census or a registration policy we can verify. We do not publish exploit methods.

Frequently asked questions

Which darknet forums does TorBible list?

The directory names Breaking Bad, Darknet Army, Dread, OnionForum, Suprbay, Tenebris, and Zeroday, with type, access, and registration in the comparison table. See the darknet forums directory.

Does every forum have an onion address here?

7 of 7 entries include an onion already stored in our forum file. We do not scrape competing wikis or invent mirrors.

Are forum DMs safe for market URLs?

No. Treat messages as stored on someone else’s disk. Do not follow user-supplied onions. Use OPSEC fundamentals and the market catalog for context, not a single PM.
