If archetyp has been seized by LE, what are the implications for small time buyers? : Archetyp | Torhoo darknet markets

The Archetyp situation is shady: /post/8c3be43630cb9ce926a0/#c-00d7757b23d0ee2beb

Possibly seized by LE. https://torhoo.cc/go.php?u=TDNVdmFIVm5ZblZ1ZEdWeQ==# said there's possibility of a honeypot type situation

What are the implications for small time buyers here? Should people who've placed recent, unshipped orders expect LE to come knocking? Will LE have people's info moving forward, and will this make shopping on other markets riskier for former Archetyp users in the future?
Most likely nothing since everything is PGP encrypted and if its not then ur a fool?

Can anyone please explain to me, if the site auto-encrypted your shipping details? It seemed like it used your key and the vendors key to auto-encrypt.
If you used auto-encryption there is a POSSIBILITY they can view the text before it was encrypted.

Are you able to explain any further? It seemed like just a pgp key that was sent in the message.
Yes but understand you have to send the clear text to archetyp server to encrypt so it goes like this ' Your address > archetyp server > encrypted to vendors key > sent to vendor encrypted.' At archetyp sever part it comes in cleartext and comes out encrypted.

Thank you very much for the info, this was the answer I was looking for. Now I'm very scared though... not that I'm even a big fish lol
Learn to manually encrypt and you should be fine, but for now clean the house. Who knows whats going on atm.

I do know how, that's the sad part. I thought it was just built in on this site. My house stays clean these days :) hoping I'll be fine.
Please.
PLEASE.
PLEASE.
Do not ever use the built in encryption ever again for the rest of your life. /d/pgppractice if you have to.

You should be fine, unless ASNT set it up to store all your data like Incognito did... but I doubt it, because this is a market that is unlikely to exit scam in my opinion, it was founded for the message, not for the money.

Exactly, great explanation. Also, who really knows exactly how it worked behind the scenes after the orders were finalized and completed. Maybe that cleartext info was able to be completely purged and made unrecoverable, maybe not. Nobody really knows but I would always expect the worst and hope for the best.
Exactly, everyone should of learnt from incognito bullshit where they said everything is deleted but they in reality never deleted shit.

Yep. I do have more faith in the Archetyp team being more tech savvy and caring than Incognito but maybe my faith there is a bit misguided.

Well, looks like I misplaced my faith as well. Please say a prayer for me gentleman. Probably won't be on here again, either way.

seek another market, and be aware that some people lost 1k 2k 10k so small buyer mean small loses.

as a rule , only pay what you are willing to take the risk to lose.

i mean police wont spend 50 k to seek an user who buyed 25 pills on a 2 years lifespan. most likely a love letter

If you had tight opsec; Your fine.

If your not a person ordering kilos and oz's; Your fine.
Relax, have a cup of joe my friend and enjoy the chaos.
