New target time is 23:45:00 but no promises. Security comes first over meeting deadlines. Given the intensity of recent events, staff has decided that an extra few hours will help ensure a smooth opening. The marketplace will re-open at 23:00 UTC on the 28th of December, 2013. Several long-awaited features will be launched. More details will follow. I trust that you raised a glass for our fallen crew this holiday. They sacrificed their freedom for the world's first truly free online market. Long live Silk Road!
