“Yesterday, Sheep Marketplace, an anonymous digital narcotics bazaar that grew popular after the shutdown of the Silk Road, announced that it had been robbed of 5,400 bitcoins—the equivalent of $6 million at current exchange rates—and then promptly shut itself down. This came just days after Black Market Reloaded announced it would be shutting down due to an inability to absorb a massive influx of new users leaving Sheep Marketplace. So, was the Sheep Marketplace a scam, or was the site, as its admins claim, the victim of theft? The consensus on Reddit, SheepMarketScam, and the site’s forum is that the black market’s creators were the thieves.”
