Step 1. Install Tor Browser from torproject.org directly. Verify the installer signature against the Tor Project published key. Do not install from a third-party mirror; do not use a clearnet VPN as a substitute.
Step 2. Open Tor Browser. Click the shield icon top-right. Set the security slider to Safest. Standard mode allows JavaScript and remote fonts; Safest disables both. Nexus storefronts work without JavaScript.
Step 3. Bookmark this directory on the clearnet, not the onion address. The directory rotates with the platform; a bookmarked onion eventually goes stale.
Step 4. Copy a mirror from the home page or the Nexus profile. Use the copy button. Never retype a fifty-six character v3 onion. Paste into Tor Browser. Wait for the page; if a challenge appears, complete it.
Step 5. Create an account. Username and password new to this platform; save both to a password manager. Enable 2FA right after first login.
Step 6. Fund in Monero. The deposit page gives you a fresh subaddress; send from a wallet you control. Two minutes to first confirmation, ten minutes to platform credit.
