Step two — choosing a verified Mars Market mirror
The second step is copying a current Mars Market onion address. Five verified addresses are listed below. Each line is rendered as a plain link whose visible text is exactly the address, so the text you select is the text that lands on your clipboard.

What a Mars Market address looks like
A current Mars Market onion is fifty-six lowercase characters from a-z and 2-7, followed by the literal suffix .onion. Every line above starts with the four letters m, a, r, s — that prefix is the visual fingerprint that ties the string back to this storefront. Scan the prefix and the length before you click. Anything that begins with something else is not Mars Market, no matter how convincingly the surrounding page presents it.
Copy, do not retype
The single most common cause of landing on a lookalike storefront is retyping a long random string and getting one character wrong. The copy button next to each line removes the temptation. So does selecting the visible text and using the system copy shortcut — either way, the clipboard receives the exact address. The mirrors are listed as plain links specifically so that no entity, no zero-width character and no extra whitespace can sneak into the copied text.
Which mirror to pick
It does not matter very much. All five land on the same storefront, the same login screen and the same wallet, so the choice between them is only a question of which Tor route happens to feel quick for you on a given evening. If you have no preference, pick the top one. If it loads slowly on the next step, come back here and pick another. Saving more than one address in a private note for later is reasonable too.
Where to keep the saved address
A short private note kept on the same machine you use the Tor Browser on is enough. Avoid a cloud sync that mirrors the note to other devices, since that widens the surface for a stray screenshot or a curious housemate. A local text file in a folder you control, or a bookmark inside the Tor Browser itself, is friendlier than a sticky note next to the monitor. If the saved address rotates out later, come back to this page and refresh the line — the cost of doing so is a copy and a paste.
