Coins and fees
Awazon accepts Bitcoin and Monero only. This short list simplifies decision making for buyers. You choose based on privacy preference or transaction cost. There are no hidden fees for specific coin types. If you hold a different currency, exchange it before checkout. Complete the swap in your preferred wallet or exchange. Do not attempt payment with unsupported assets inside the marketplace. Keep your funds ready when you finalize the cart contents.
Bitcoin, public ledger
Bitcoin offers a public ledger for all transactions. Every transfer leaves a visible trace on the blockchain. Choose this option if you prioritize liquidity and familiarity over anonymity. Many users prefer it for larger purchases due to established infrastructure and lower volatility compared to newer assets.
Monero, no public record
Monero provides private transactions with no public record. The network obscures sender, receiver, and amount details automatically. This aligns with the core purpose of operating within a hidden service. Users select Monero when they want their purchasing habits to remain entirely opaque to outside observers.
Network fees
Network fees depend on current blockchain congestion levels. These costs are paid to miners or validators, not to the marketplace. Expect fluctuations during high activity periods across global networks.
Always deposit funds into your personal wallet first. Never send coins directly from an exchange to the market address. Direct transfers create a visible line connecting your verified exchange account to the marketplace. Use your own wallet to break this direct association.
Payment questions
Does Awazon accept stablecoins?
No. The platform supports only Bitcoin and Monero. Stablecoins like Tether or USDC are not listed as payment options. Convert them to BTC or XMR beforehand if desired.
What if the Bitcoin network is congested?
Transaction speeds may decrease significantly during peak times. Fees might increase to ensure timely processing. Consider switching to Monero if delays become unacceptable for your purchase timing.
Can I pay with a credit card?
Direct credit card payments are not supported within the market. You would need to buy cryptocurrency first. Then transfer those coins to your personal wallet for final payment.
