About Torzon Status
An independent reachability and uptime monitor for the Torzon onion service — a connectivity signal, nothing more. We do not run the marketplace, hold escrow, or store anything about the people who read this page.
Why This Site Exists
"Is Torzon down?" is one of the most common things people type when an onion address stops loading — and the honest answer is usually "no, but something between you and it is". Torzon Status was built in 2022 to make that distinction quickly, with evidence instead of rumour. The Torzon service runs as three Tor v3 onion mirrors in separate hosting regions; this monitor records whether each of them answered a connection attempt, from where, and over which transport.
Search engines and chat groups are a poor status source. After any block, they fill with "new working links", some reachable and fake. A monitor that publishes timestamped, documented readings — and a signing fingerprint to verify addresses against — is a far safer first stop than a fresh search.
We are deliberately narrow. We measure the front door and report on it clearly. Everything behind that door — listings, accounts, transactions — is outside this site entirely, and we have no visibility into it by design.
Principles We Hold To
Four commitments that shape every reading we publish.
Documented, never invented
Every figure comes from a probe and carries the timestamp of the sweep that produced it. We never publish a green reading we did not measure, and we never fake a live counter.
Nothing collected from readers
No accounts, no cookies, no analytics, no logs tied to you. The site is static. Our probes test the mirrors, not the people reading the results. See the privacy notice.
Connectivity, not endorsement
A reachable status describes a network fact. It is not advice to use anything, nor a safety guarantee. We document availability and leave decisions to the reader.
Verify over trust
We publish a signing fingerprint and explain how to check it so you never have to take our word for an address. The verification steps work without trusting this page.
Who This Is For — and Who It Is Not
If you are on a free, unfiltered connection, you may never need a status page; the mirrors are reachable through plain Tor Browser. This monitor is for everyone else — readers behind national firewalls, corporate TLS allow-lists, or throttled ISPs — who need to know whether to wait, switch transport, or switch endpoint.
It is not a help desk for the marketplace, not a vendor directory, and not a place that can recover an account or a transaction. Those questions belong to the service operators, not to a connectivity monitor. What we can do is tell you, with a timestamp, whether the door is open.
START WITH THE STATUS TABLE
See which mirror is reachable right now, then verify the address before you use it.
