As another year draws to a close, it's time to look forward yet again to another Onionket.
Onionket (or "Onion Comic Market") is a decentralized, censorship-resistant online doujin/art festival hosted exclusively in the Dark Web. Onionket gives artists a SIMPLE, FREE, and CENSORSHIP-RESISTANT way to distribute their work. Using an open-source program called "OnionShare", each artist creates and hosts their own simple .onion website on the Tor network. Onionket collects and publishes a catalog of these links, allowing others to browse and access them.
After five successful outings over the last three years, we're ready for Round Six.
The next Onion Comic Market will be held on February 17th and 18th, 2024, so check our website on how to sign up and join the event:

・(Tor) http://cfxnvps5mxzdfh7aw5gwhhx2hmbr5vbww4m4m3znk6sjxnrd6l7bvnid.onion
・(I2P) http://onionket.i2p
As with previous Onionkets, all participating circles will also be eligible for an account on the Onionket Mitra server, which offers Patreon-style fan support using Monero and other cryptocurrencies. Even when Onionket is over, you can share your art or support your favorite artists whenever you want:

・https://onionket.com/mitra.html

Additionally, we're happy to report that we finally have a Session Open Group again! Thanks to the support of a participating circle member, we no longer have to rely on temporary Closed Groups with size limits.
・Inside the Session app, choose "Join Community" and paste the following address: http://oniket-group.com/onionket?public_key=31e87d05bf25621709b06f1cd2018277650dcb2d526ec4dcafce22e85cff080b
・...or scan the QR code available at: http://oniket-group.com/r/onionket/
If Session isn't your speed and you prefer something more technical (and private), a Tor-based XMPP chat is available thanks to our friends at LibreShack.

In an era of rising censorship and centralized control by governments, corporations, and angry mobs, artists need the tools to secure their own freedoms online. Onionket aims to help them find and use those tools.
Join Onionket. And together we can say NO to Censorship.

Onionket: the Darknet Anti-Censorship Art Festival (prominently featuring XMR)
Hello monero.town
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:
http://okmtrc4dpgacu2yvtdtb2p4s6zcxbvcrjs5fdgxwnxmmwokb4wb3rzqd.onion/
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
