🔗 Two mirrors, both live

ShadowX uptime, measured: a year of downtime

How we measured a year of availability, the outages in order, what caused them, and what 97% uptime actually means for you.

We checked both .onion mirrors once a day for twelve straight months. Simple ping, recorded time. The result is roughly 97% availability — solid, but the remaining three percent still stings.

Three noticeable breaks occurred during the year, none longer than fourteen hours: two in spring, one in late fall. All traced to infrastructure — a failed mirror sync and a minor server migration. No hack, no vendor drama. PGP channels stayed open, so orders kept moving even while pages flickered.

What it means for you
97% puts ShadowX comfortably ahead of peers that vanish for days. If your package is due next month the brief gaps barely matter; if you trade daily, plan around the maintenance windows they post in advance.
