Black Market was one of the sites listed in a note sent with a bitcoin transaction to the FBI’s blockchain.info address. That sender also posted the Tor link to another, called Sheep Marketplace. Others are proposing alternatives that move entirely outside the Silk Road system, in which a central arbiter held bitcoins in escrow, releasing them when both parties to a transaction were satisfied.”
