One public directory dates Vortex to December 2023. A second says 2023 and repeats the same longevity claim already in our note: about three years of continuous operation, which is long for this category. Uptime is not a safety guarantee. It is only a public-history signal.
Our tags are Bitcoin and Monero, plus 2FA, PGP, and escrow. Directories also mention USDT and an in-platform BTC-to-XMR conversion, plus personal vendor .onion storefronts for higher-tier sellers; one mentions USDT in one checkout, automatic withdrawals, and finalize-early for trusted vendors. Those extras are not in our tag list, so we do not promote them as verified catalog features.
The 4,300+ listing figure is the number we already store; it matches a public July 2026 comparison table. Listing depth is not the headline in directory write-ups; mixed-coin convenience is treated as the thing to read carefully.
The Official onion on this card is the string we store. Treat any other mirror as untrusted until you check a PGP canary.
Status, tags, and listing counts come from our catalog file. Editorial notes below the card come from open public reporting and are worded as reported when we have not verified them in-house. Treat every mirror you find elsewhere as untrusted until you check a PGP canary and a second independent source. See phishing detection and OPSEC fundamentals.
