I spend way too much of my day reading underground forums. Might as well share what keeps these tabs open. 👀
PART 1 — 5 forums from my daily reading list.
If you’ve seen these names before but never understood the differences, here’s the context behind the logos.
DamageLib
Hacking tutorials, malware-development discussions, vulnerabilities, and technical threads. There’s more to talk about here than the name and logo. For this first overview, the technical discussions are the main thing to know about.
RuTor
This is where the subject matter gets darker: illicit marketplaces, drug-trade discussions, vendor disputes, and underground community news.
A forum can tell you a lot about the market around it. The arguments and complaints are part of that picture too.
XSS
One of the established names associated with malware, stolen credentials, leaked data, and access to compromised networks.
The 2025 crackdown matters. It disrupted the community and raised serious questions about trust, so an old description of XSS only tells part of the story.
Then there are two more that regularly end up in my tabs ↓
WWH-Club
More focused on the fraud side: stolen personal information, payment-card abuse, and cybercrime training. Ordinary-looking forum threads can cover some pretty ugly subjects.
Exploit
Malware, stolen credentials, exploit discussions, and access to compromised corporate networks. Technical conversations and criminal trading exist alongside each other.
“Daily reading” describes my routine. It isn’t a recommendation to trust anyone there. ⚠️
I wanted to start sharing these notes because a list of names barely scratches the surface.
Part 2: one forum, a closer look at its history, what changed, and the details a quick overview misses.
Which one should I start with?

Binance has allocated US$6.34 billion of its own corporate funds to the User Fund. In the current User Fund, BTC, ETH, USDT, BNB, SOL, USDC, XRP, USD1, RLUSD, and ZEC have all achieved 100% full reserve backing. We will continue to purchase other altcoin assets that are not yet 100% matched through market and over-the-counter (OTC) channels until the replenishment ratio for all tokens reaches 100%.
We completed a new Proof of Reserves snapshot at 08:00 (UTC+8) on October 31, 2026, and have updated it on the Proof of Reserves website. This snapshot presents the latest fully verified asset position and is part of our ongoing commitment to transparency. Because generating zero-knowledge proofs requires substantial computing resources, it is expected to take approximately 40 to 50 hours. If you hold any of the aforementioned ten tokens, you can independently verify, once the complete proof is generated, that your assets are backed by at least 1:1 full reserves. The complete proof is expected to be published on Tuesday, November 3, 2026 (UTC).
