AlphaBay was a darknet market operating at different times between September 2014 and February 2023.[2][4][5] At times, it was both an onion service on the Tor network and an I2P node on I2P. After it was shut down in July 2017 following law enforcement action in the United States, Canada, and Thailand as part of Operation Bayonet, it was relaunched in August 2021 by the self-described co-founder and security administrator DeSnake.[1][6][7] The alleged original founder, Alexandre Cazes, a Canadian citizen born on 19 October 1991,[2][8] was found dead in his cell in Thailand several days after his arrest, with police suspecting suicide.[9][10][11][12]
