Mirror channel
The replacement a Telegram market opens before the original is banned, announced in advance and linked from everywhere the crew operates. Continuity as an operating procedure rather than an accident.
Why it matters to you
Monitoring pinned to a channel identifier goes blind the day the ban lands, and the market does not. Follow the operators and the naming convention rather than the address.
Where we meet it
The announcement is public because the customers have to find the new room. Following that continuity rather than the channel is what keeps a record unbroken across a takedown.
Connected terms
Cloud of logs
A subscription Telegram channel that pours out fresh stealer logs daily to paying members. Bulk access to victims, sold like a streaming service.
Invite-only server
A private Discord server run as a market or a crew's back office: vetted entry, a channel per function, and a history that does not exist for anyone who was not in the room.
Exit scam
A market or a trusted vendor takes the escrow balance and disappears. The recurring end state of criminal platforms, and the reason escrow and reputation systems exist at all.
Where this term stops being vocabulary
Telepathy is where you watch it happen to you
Knowing the word is the cheap half. The platform is the half where the term arrives attached to your domain, with a timestamp and the source it came from.
More from the infrastructure
Antidetect browser
A browser built to present a consistent, disposable fingerprint per profile: its own canvas, fonts, timezone and proxy. Sold so a stolen session can be replayed from a machine that looks like the victim's.
Bulletproof hosting
Hosting sold on the promise that abuse complaints go unanswered and legal requests go unread. Priced well above ordinary hosting, because that indifference is the entire product.
C2 panel
The web console an operator uses to run infected machines: victims listed, tasks queued, output collected. Sold with the malware, screenshotted in the advertisement, and often the most revealing artifact a crew produces.
Crypto mixer
A service that pools cryptocurrency from many senders and pays out from the pool, so that the link between an incoming and an outgoing transaction is broken. Charged as a percentage, sometimes with a delay bought separately.
