MGM Grand market emerged in March 2021. The reason behind its rapid success was execution.
When other marketplaces such as Alphabay, Empire Market, and DarkMarket were struggling, the team behind this marketplace was busy seizing the day.
I must say this marketplace is growing rapidly because there are:
- 98,794 buyers in total, out of which 36K are active
- 23.1K products listed
- 745 trusted vendors
- 6 active staff members
And guess what? That’s not it. There’s a lot more that you should know about MGM Grand.

Interface and usability
MGM market has a sleek interface. I must say it’s well-organized, neat, and modern. Unlike other marketplaces that look like they were built around the 90s, this one looks like the domain of clear web.
As soon as you open the MGM market link, you’ll come across this page.
Being a new user, you have to register on the platform. So fill the form like this:
Once you’re done filling the form, click on the ‘register’ button and you’ll get this mnemonic that you need to save somewhere, just in case you forget your password, this might help you recover it.
That’s all you need to do. Once you’re registered, you’ll have to login with the same username & password and you’ll get to this page which is the homepage of MGM Grand market.
The marketplace has two modes: light and dark.
