German Police Dismantle Dark Web's Kingdom Market in Global Crackdown

German police, in collaboration with international authorities, have shut down Kingdom Market, a dark web marketplace for drugs, cybercrime tools, and fake government IDs. The marketplace, which operated since March 2021, facilitated the sale of various illegal items and services, with payments made in cryptocurrencies. One administrator has been arrested in the US, and investigations are ongoing to identify others involved. Competing dark web markets are already inviting sellers from Kingdom Market to join their platforms.
