How DNM Compare ranks

We rank Anubis and Nexus on five measurable axes — tenure, uptime, vendor depth, dispute throughput, and currency support. The two markets are directly comparable across the board: both run 2-of-3 multisig as the default escrow contract, both default new accounts to Monero, and both publish a multi-mirror rotation with independent guard pools.

The structural tiebreakers most users find decisive: Nexus has the longer track record (~3y vs ~2y) and a deeper vendor-feedback corpus; Anubis has the marginally cleaner dispute-panel UX and routes new vendor accounts into multisig by default rather than as opt-in. Both translate into measurable buyer outcomes; the directory does not declare a single winner.

Phishing notice — cloned storefronts are pixel-identical to legitimate mirrors. Always copy onion addresses from this directory or the operator’s announcement; never retype.
