We’re now relying more and more on machine-code rather than other human-operated institutions like banks backed by the government. Whether this bubble bursts or not, it indicates another major trend in human behaviour. This downiness is the biggest disadvantage. Since it mainly handles illegal drug sales, a tidal wave of disbelief also sticks around it. A value of about 39 cents to over USD 18,000 in just eight years is really startling but the increasing drug demand justifies it. So the price of Bitcoin also skyrocketed in last two-three years. In those two years, they would mainly depend on drug sales. Between 20, ‘Silk Road’, the DE-facto ‘E-Bay of Drug Sales in Dark Net’, had made 1.2 billion dollars. When FBI stopped ‘Silk Road’ in 2013, they found an astonishing report. And that too after the FBI had banned ‘Silk Road’. In 2014 alone, the daily sales volume in six dark net markets rose to USD 6,500,000. The anonymous Dark Web, which is only available through the TOR browser, was the game changer. And there was a rock-solid support of the dark web behind it. In eight years the value jumps just over many thousand times. Eight years ago? It was only 39 cents! This tidal surge in value is awfully baffling! Dark web is one of the main reasons why today one Bitcoin equals nearly eighteen thousand dollars. Bitcoin has become almost a bona fide currency for the dark web now.
