couple weeks?
couple months?
couple years?

From a business and work-related stand-point, I care.

A lot of us former vendors fit it around a daily routine or schedule that works around our lifestyle and/or day jobs. Heck, some vendors are in "career mode" with the market.

Please rethink the "it'll be up, when it's up" way of thinking. Even a rough estimated time would do wonders.

Be patient, its in your best interest.

Somewhere between days and weeks. When we have a launch date, we will add a countdown timer to the big launch.

[Mr Lucy]

How do we even know this site is legit? It takes months to set up a site. Why so sudden?

Count down time.

Like a game console release day. When it hits zero you can have drugs and bitcoins shoot out of it.

@ Mr Lucy

If you trust the old staff from the original SR, and trust that their forum handles weren't all compromised (and that LE managed to match their writing styles to perfection), you can trust this new site.

If you don't, you can't.

Looking forward to this...Call me naive but I just get a really, REALLY good feeling about this

Great joke !!

Everybody cares...

[whitebread]

For those unaware, it is obvious that the new DPR clearly doesn't want to set a release date as it would mean that he would be working toward meeting a deadline and not meeting the security requirements of the website he is creating. Be thankful that he/she is taking security as seriously as possible - it will save us ALL in the future.

For those vendors out there, sheep and BMR are available in the mean time and I'm sure they could do with your services.

Not only this, but signed PGP messages with their original keys is a big plus! ;-)

Hey folks,

Thanks for the rough timeline, much appreciated. 

Any tips for vendors/buyers who want to hit the ground running on day 1?  For example, I'm getting the impression that a buyer running orbot on a phone and who has never used PGP may have some homework to do. 

Please, give us some homework!

Cheers

honestly I would only ever use orbot for browsing,  AFAIK there is no good PGP program for Android
people alot smarter than me might know better but I've not found one myself that's reliable and I don't know how safe orbot and Android are.
It might make things easier. But easier is not always better.

Thanks seventysix76 (76 squared?),

Agreed.  I think I garbled my own question by focusing on the technology rather than the skills.  I guess what I'm asking for is a "minimum qualifications"-type list like what we see in job postings. 

1. knowledge and ability to use TOR
2. knowledge of PGP encryption using public keys
3. ??Knowledge and ability to use and maintain a private key??
4. ??Knowledge and ability to verify PGP signatures??
5 ??

The minimum requirement to be a buyer on Silk Road Classic was #1.

Don't even think about leaving your house without #2 if you are buying. If you trust your android operating system, APG is an app you can use for pgp.

Always be mindful when it comes to your personal info, or anything that can be used to distinguish you

[V]

Thanks seventysix76 (76 squared?)

If seventysix was the number 76, and 76 represented an algebraic symbol that we knew to have the value of 76, this would be correct. Just like 2x (where x = 2) would be 2 squared.

I see you're a bit of a mathematician?

I can get "V" to 100 posts in no time solely on the basis of making fun of my math skills!  :-)

Making fun? Au contraire, my friend. Rather, I'm admiring and analyzing your casual observation :-)

But who have the balls to buy on Day1 :3

But who have the balls to buy on Day1 :3

If I can identify a vendor that I trust through his pgp I will buy on day 1

[Quixote]

Normally I'd think implementing a timer spells disaster (traffic), but is this intentional? To help gauge load limitations?

[blorgbots]

But who have the balls to buy on Day1 :3

Me. First, I trust the intentions of neo-DPR and the other couple of users that have moved over here. This is because nobody's giving us an exact date: the way I figure, if the feds were in charge of this new thing it would be up already.

I also know that I'm quite safe considering I'm only a buyer. I can see a problem with vendors not moving over through suspicion, but we'll have the same security and plausible deniability that we had before. I just hope to shit that PGP is unconditionally required this time.

agree.Don t  see the point for the feds to open up a new site,
they wouldn t have shut down the site in first place

[EyeManIFest]

I hope vendors are switching up package labels....     

i know a good amount of the vendors had tons and tons of customers who didn't use pgp encryption.  Your packaging can easily be flagged.

[Hedonisticshaman420]

I second this, With the right validation of the vendor in question I would most deff grab off the new road on day #1

How do we even know this site is legit? It takes months to set up a site. Why so sudden?

They are working with backups. Cut the time down alot.

Working with backups? They don't have any copy of the server more than anyone else has. They are verifying vendors through the old Silkroad forum, so if it was that they had access to backups they wouldn't need to do that. Besides if they had backups, it wouldn't take more than a couple of hours at most to get started again. They are building an entirely new site for sure.

That's not really the backup he's talking about... just an old scrape of all the SR vendor pages.

new forum and website could be run by Obama himself it really doesn t matter as long as you
          -buy from trusted vendor(pgp identification)
          -use pgp for every messages
          -do not store bitcoin in your account
          -deposit/withdraw  bitcoin from/to a bogus wallet



STRESS THIS EVERYONE.. ^

oh and woop woop!

-Don't Finalize Early

woop woop x2

[sacha16]

-do not rely only on tor to remain anonymous

[fecesmatter]

PGP + If it's too good to be true, it's LE/Scam!

[TheNakedApple]

I'm longing already! Sadly I had some orders in transit when the site went down and have been dry for over a month before that already so really would like some new wares soon
