And most of the newbies only buy smaller amounts, and or... not often.Definitely not 1 million. And these numbers are WORLD WIDE. 350,000 out of roughly 7,000,000,000 isn't too bad.I'd believe 350,000. And a lot of accounts have probably never been used. People have to make an account just to take a look at Silk Road.That means 1 in every 20,000 people in the world have a Silk Road account. There is so much room for growth... I'd say at least 1 in 50 people use drugs, so if very drug user used Silk Road, this place would be just too big.As a rule of thumb, for each person who uses the forums at all, there's about ten who don't in my experience. A quick check reveals something in around 64,890 accounts are registered on this forum. Due to circumstances I doubt the same rule of 10 heuristic applies here. Even so, even conservative estimates are huge in comparison to every other black market that was online in the past.
