Title: Would you trust an onion?
Post by: CoinCleaner on August 13, 2012, 05:08:07 AM
I run a washing service on an onion address and i went to add it to the onion search engine..

In doing so, I found an investing company that gives 3% back guaranteed on 2wk deposits and 3.5% on 4 week deposits.

Would you trust a .onion site? I understand just cause its an onion site doesn't mean its sketch, it just means its by someone that wants to remain anonymous.

But if I were to invest 500BTC I would want to know who is holding onto my money. Is that too much to ask? I mean, I guess with normal TLD's like .com/.net there is no guarantee either. Chances are still greater than not that all their registrar info is fake.

But I suppose realistically .onion is no different than regular domains..It just seems like its more legit with a .com.

Am I the only one that thinks that?

I would never blindly deposit a large amount of bitcoins in promise of getting more in return without reports from several members verifying their service.
