Darknetlive was a news and information site[1][2] covering darknet markets and other dark web activities.

In the beginning of 2024, the website was sold to the admin of the Incognito market.[3] The admin purchased it as part of a plan to commit a exit scam. [4] It now publishes no new news, and many features such as comments on the site have been disabled.

Regular topics include major drug dealer 'vendor' arrests,[5] and all kinds of information surrounding darknet market activities and closures.[6][7][8]

A part of the Blueleaks hack, an FBI document mentions that non-commercial sites such as Darknetlive are "legal gateways" for accessing darknet markets.[9]
