RE: Monero could overcome to Bitcoin in Darknet transactions? - Safety and untraceability in the first place in The Monero Project - Darknet users do not trust only Bitcoin anymore
Oasis Market did not accept Monero until yesterday and Alphabay will not until September 1. There was no interest in Monero on the darknet until the SIGAINT email service on Tor started a Monero service a couple of weeks ago. That is the reason for the recent price rise, along with the announcements from Oasis and Alphabay. All of this has been well covered already on Reddit.
