Your comment is unnecesarily presumptuous, but regardless...

I don't really understand why OpenBazaar would use UDP, and I can't seem to find any information about it, but it looks like they tell server operators to open up both a TCP and UDP port. I guess they might use it for DHT control messages? Their documentation site is down right now, so that's the best I got.

The server would need to be re-written for native support since it uses UDP, but I think it might be possible using a 3rd party like onioncat.
