Darknet marketplace ‘Sipultie’, which facilitated the sale of illegal narcotics by anonymous users, has been shut down. The seizure was a collaborative effort between Finnish customs, Europol, Swedish police, Polish law enforcement, and cybersecurity researchers.
The site in its current form had been operational since February 2023, when it replaced its predecessor ‘Sipulimarket’, which was shut down by feds in December 2020 - but not before it made over €2 million. Moderators from a separate but similar platform, Tsätti, were also reportedly identified in the raid.
