Dark marketplaces pioneered a new way to monetise illicit goods. A unique combination of technologies (such as overlay networks, end-to-end encryption, and cryptocurrencies) guarantees anonymity for dark marketplace users (including operators, vendors, and buyers). We have developed a tool for monitoring and investigating dark marketplaces (namely, collecting and processing evidence directly from their websites), which we used for real-time detection of various illicit activities. This paper presents a well-described and structured dataset that contains high-frequency web-scraped information from Monopoly Market (one of the most popular dark marketplaces in 2021). The evaluation demonstrates how high-resolution temporal analysis can reveal mission-critical information about the frequency of trades, vendor activities, and the drug market.
