Knowledge Base & FAQ

WeTheNorth is a decentralized marketplace infrastructure designed specifically for the Canadian jurisdiction. By enforcing a domestic-only policy, we mitigate the primary vector for law enforcement interception: customs borders. All vendors and buyers must be located within Canada.

Cryptographic verification is the only method to ensure authenticity. Always verify the PGP signature of the landing page against our official public key. The current verified V3 onion address is hn2paw7w627n5bro3zirrhb5bchugcjmm2mvxggnnlxqjkhhwzolbdid.onion. Do not trust links from unverified sources.

Yes. WeTheNorth enforces mandatory PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) for Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) and shipping information. All addresses must be encrypted using the vendor's public key. The marketplace stores only encrypted text blocks, ensuring that even in the event of a server seizure, no user data is readable.

We operate on a strict "No Logs" architecture. Transaction history is retained only for the duration of the escrow period. Once an order is finalized and the feedback window closes, all metadata associated with the transaction is purged from our databases.

For optimal OpSec, we strongly recommend accessing the market via Tails OS (The Amnesic Incognito Live System) running from a USB drive. Tails forces all connections through Tor and leaves no digital footprint on the host machine.

We accept both, but Monero (XMR) is heavily recommended. Bitcoin ledgers are public and traceable. Monero utilizes ring signatures, stealth addresses, and RingCT to completely obfuscate the sender, receiver, and amount. Using XMR breaks the chain of surveillance analysis.

Upon checkout, funds are moved to a temporary market wallet. The vendor is notified to ship. The funds are locked until:

• The buyer manually finalizes the order (confirms receipt).
• The auto-finalize timer expires (14 days for physical goods).
• A dispute is resolved in favor of the vendor.

If an order does not arrive, do not Finalize. Open a dispute before the auto-finalize timer expires. A moderator will review the vendor's shipping proof and the buyer's history. Communication logs within the order page are the primary evidence used.

WeTheNorth maintains strict ethical standards. The sale of Fentanyl (and analogues), weaponry, explosives, CP, and hitman services is strictly prohibited. Vendors found listing these items will be immediately banned and their bonds seized.
