I'm the organizer of an event called "Onionket" (or "Onion Comic Market"). Onionket is a decentralized, censorship-resistant online doujin/art festival hosted exclusively in the Dark Web. Our goal is to provide artists with a simple, free, and censorship-resistant way to both share their work and receive support from their fans (if they want to). There's more detailed information available on our websites, for those interested:

MAIN - https://onioncomic.market
NoJS - https://onionket.com
TOR - http://cfxnvps5mxzdfh7aw5gwhhx2hmbr5vbww4m4m3znk6sjxnrd6l7bvnid.onion
I2P - http://onionket.i2p

The event centers around using a software called OnionShare (www.onionshare.org) to easily create a simple .onion website to host and display one's work, plus any wallet addresses/QR codes/support links desired. The event then publishes a catalog advertising and linking to each artist's site.

We also host a Tor instance of a Fediverse software called "Mitra", which has several useful features that allow it to be used as an XMR-powered Patreon for artists. While the OnionShare sites only last the two days of the event, all participating artists are invited to create accounts on the Mitra server to share their work in the long term, and for fans to follow or subscribe to them using Monero.

Our Mitra server can be found here:

Any artists in the Monero community interested in participating, you're more than welcome to apply. And any XMR users, we'd be happy to have you as viewers and general participants. I'd like to do some small part to encourage a circular economy between artists and fans while cutting out the middlemen, censors, and moral busybodies who've been plaguing art communities online.

Thanks
