In News

Before Silk Road, the dark web was less known to the general public. Silk Road’s operations brought significant attention to the capabilities of the Tor network, which anonymizes users, making it a household name among those interested in online privacy and anonymity.

It significantly boosted the adoption of Bitcoin. Before Silk Road, Bitcoin was primarily known within a niche community of tech enthusiasts. The marketplace’s use of Bitcoin for transactions demonstrated its potential for anonymous, peer-to-peer transactions, leading to increased interest and value in cryptocurrencies.
