GammaGoblin, also known as PushingTaboo, is a veteran darknet vendor specializing in the sale of LSD, MDMA, DMT, and other psychedelic substances. GammaGoblin has been in business since January 2012, initially vending on the now-defunct market SilkRoad. This positions the vendor as one of the veterans, with over 11 years of business experience.
GammaGoblin vendor store opened around 7 to 8 years ago, in 2013 or 2014. The most popular product in this store is LSD tabs, but you can also find LSD in powder form. However, this powder must be handled with utmost care and only by people who know what they are doing.
User interface
The user interface of GammaGoblin is very simple and straightforward. Once you enter the store, you will be presented with the few products this vendor offers. At the top right corner, there are login and registration links. I don't think the interface needs much elaboration as it is very simple.
Payment handling and Supported cryptocurrencies
"Gammagoblin currently supports Bitcoin (BTC) and, for those looking for extra safety, the Monero (XMR) cryptocurrency. The buyer pays directly on the order page, so no funds are stored in a wallet, which is a great advantage. When it comes to escrow, there isn't one, as it would make no sense due to the store being run by the vendor himself and having full control of the escrow system if it existed in the first place."
Registering on GammaGoblin
To register on Gammagoblin the user must choose a username, password as well as public PGP key for encrypted communication, this means the buyer must be familiar with the concept of PGP and know how to use it.
How GammaGoblin managed to stay in business for this long
Due to the fact that the store consists of a single vendor and specializes in a singular type of product, its attack surfaces are restricted. Consequently, there exist significantly fewer points of failure that could potentially result in infiltration or seizure by law enforcement. Notably, the market lacks an escrow system and a central wallet to store funds. Instead, it relies solely on the trust that the vendor will fulfill their obligations. Thus far, the vendor has established a reputation for delivering on their promises. The reselling of GammaGoblin products is widespread across the globe, with their intricate print patterns being renowned for their artistic value.
Due to their low-key and discreet approach, GammaGoblin(PushingTaboo) has successfully avoided any form of intervention from law enforcement or competitors. The enduring success of these vendors can be attributed to the nature of their product. Despite its potency, LSD is considered safe when consumed in small-to-moderate doses. Overdosing on the drug is highly unlikely, unless one ingests numerous sheets (equivalent to thousands of doses) within a short timeframe.
