Bitcoin Forum

Since nowadays there are lots of organization that made their own ICOs/Whitepaper etc. So to you, which is the most secure and trusted ICOs that you guys have been using?

I am going with DeepOnion for my security and privacy currency. It is tied in with the TOR network and seems to be maturing very nicely. They have a strong team and good support from the community. They have other products like Deepsend and Deepvault that look very interesting and useful.

Just to let you know. You can also route a bitcoin client through Tor[1], aswell as other significantly better privacy coins like Monero(XMR). I really don't see why this DeepOnion coin is so fascinating to some people.

After Bitcoin, my choice is DeepOnion... DeepOnion is an anonymous cryptocurrency that is natively integrated with the TOR network. With DeepOnion your anonymity is always guaranteed.

I suppose you are correct but isnt there also a convenience factor in being able to open your wallet and everything is running from the start. No need to rout through Tor because it is already running. I am just asking Why is Monero fundamentally better?

There are also Zcash and Dash, which are as anonymous as Monero and have a large and cohesive community of their followers who own these coins, and this always plays in favor of the coin. In addition, their price is constantly growing.

These ICOs are showing significant promise for 2018:

1) Cypherium: permissionless and highly scalable. The company’s team is made up of former staff of Google, Amazon, and Microsoft. This company has been making headlines!

2) Experty, a voice and video-calling application, is seeking to alleviate the talent crisis that exists within the blockchain community.

3) RightMesh, which aims to connect people around the world, has developed a platform that can help identify nodes (devices) around the world with Ethereum accounts and then allow them to link to each other.

I think monero (XMR) most secure cryptocurrency. you can google it or read monero whitepaper

All cryptocurrency are secure because all cryptocurrency has a unique wallet address. Which nobody can hack. However, some cryptocurrency uses the TOR network Like as deeponoin, XMR, DASH, Zcash. Its use for extra secure.

What do you mean by secure and trusted? The discussion seems to have derailed into "anonymity" which, while important, isn't what I think you were asking?

The most secure and trusted cryptocurrency is Bitcoin, obviously. Longest track record, comparably stable price, largest ecosystem, largest amount of hardware securing transactions ie. hashrate.

After that you have Ethereum and Litecoin, possibly Monero. Centrally issued currencies such as Ripple are not to be trusted in my book, but make up your own mind.

As far as ICOs are concerned I personally don't trust any of these.



Now that I finally took a first glance at the Deep Onion white paper, I don't get it either. Propagating cryptocurrency transactions over TOR is nothing new and not even the actual challenge to solve. And the bit were it would get interesting -- ie. how the anonymization of transactions are actually to be taken care of -- is simply a list of the techniques used by other cryptocurrencies with little discussion on the matter and with an offhanded statement on how they'll apply a coinjoin / mixing technique. Where's the meat? I'm rather disappointed to be honest.

Lets clarify a bit! CryptoCuttencie ! = ICO
Any ways, choose an ICO that you believe in, and contribute. That's the lesson I learned.

In my view, I think it is bitcoin. Because of it's security, if came so far without any problem as a leader for all other coins.

I don't think there is a 100% correct answer to this, because we have to understand what we mean by secure. If we mean them not collapsing, then the big and unique one's won't (like ETH, LTC, XRP, XMR, BTC). For instance, I can call IOTA is a bit insecure in this regard, because its hashing algorithm has not been confirmed yet, if it turns to be wrong, IOTA will collapse...

If you mean secure in terms of the price, then again, none of them are secure because cryptocurrencies are too volatile and lots of factors influence their prices. However, I can say that ETH and LTC have relatively stabile prices these days (compared to BTC), so maybe I can call them relatively secure coins.

XRP can also go in the category of secure coins, because it has already been trusted by respected enterprises and banks, so the chances of XRP collapsing are too low.

I hope I covered your question!  ;)

Just remember: there is no security in cryptocurrencies! Cryptocurrencies are highly speculative and they can fall any second to zero forever. So even when there a technically good coin with a goo project and a good team, its highly speculative and theres no real value behind. So just remember this, and dont put all your money in. Even when the end of the last year was such a hype and everbody was thinking that they go to the moon. Just put enough money in cryptos which you can handle losing.

A lot of people are saying deeponion. I agree but since the source code is closed and the developers are all anonymous. How much can we really veryify about this Deeponion?

That is the scary part.

Probably Bitcoin cause it is the longest in the teeth  :)

A lot of people are saying it because they are being paid by them to do so. This thread has rather become a shillfest. As you said, you can't verify anything about them and i believe it is just a matter of time before something bad happens to them..

Also, Secure =/= private/anonymous. I don't get why everyone seems to think so.. Monero doesn't get any more secure by hiding how much your adress owns in comparison to Ethereum, where they do display your balance..

I personally use 2fa for my Paxful account. Customer support with them is really the best

give my vote for the monero (xmr) is a beautiful coin, never let me down. in recent polls is leading in the darknet
