Why the Anubis Market Address Rotates
Anubis Market runs three onion addresses at once, all resolving to the same market. The reason is not redundancy in the way a backup server is redundant. It is that a flood targeting one address does not affect sessions on the other two, and the market can stage and verify a new address before retiring an old one, which means zero-gap rotation. This page is what rotation costs you when you switch, and why the slowness is usually the circuit.
The three addresses

All three resolve to the same market with the same account and balance. The address you open changes only the route your traffic takes, not your balance, your open orders, or which coins a vendor will take.
Why three at once
A flood targeting one address does not affect sessions on the other two. The market can stage and verify a new address before retiring an old one, which means zero-gap rotation. There is no moment when the market is unreachable because the old address is gone and the new one is not up yet. The three addresses are not three different markets. They are three routes to the same market, and the route you take is the one that is not under attack at that moment.
What switching costs you
A fresh connection, tens of seconds, plus signing in again. Your browser treats each address as a separate site, so signing in on one leaves you signed out on the others. Doing that once because an address is genuinely unresponsive is sensible. Doing it three times in an evening because pages feel slow costs you several minutes and gains nothing, since the slowness is almost always the circuit rather than the address. The detail is on the mirrors page.
Why the slowness is the circuit
A Tor circuit is a path through roughly six relays, and the path your traffic takes is not the same every time you connect. A slow circuit is not a slow address. The address is the destination, and the circuit is the road. If one address feels slow, the fix is a new circuit, which Tor Browser can build with "New Tor Circuit for this Site," not a new address. Switching addresses to fix a slow circuit is like changing the destination to fix a slow road.
What rotation does not change
Your account, your balance, your open orders, the coins a vendor accepts, and the escrow on any order in flight. None of those move between addresses. The address is the route, and the route does not carry the account. If a deposit is slow, the address is not the cause. The payment is happening on a blockchain that has no idea which onion you signed in through. The detail is on the deposit page.
The habit
Pick one address and finish on it. Switch once because an address is genuinely unresponsive. Do not switch three times in an evening because pages feel slow. The slowness is the circuit, not the address, and a new circuit is the fix, not a new destination.
