the question if the clients / pools are just acting as "clients" in TOR network or if they are used as ENTRY / EXIT nodes was also overseen somehow....
I've approached a few people on bitcointalk who seem to have the wherewithal to have a close look at the project and report their findings. It actually would be helpful to have public, independent review of the tech. I let the main dev of DeepOnion know - after I had sent out the PM's - and he/she seemed genuinely pleased that I had done so. |

Yes he/she is very friendly, but don't answer to the question, how we are helping the tor-network.
Or am I to stupid to understand the answers ? ...

I would assume that it is because the wallet is configured to act as a Tor relay. |

Dev said severral times, that the wallet is not acting as an exit node, if I have time, I will study the program a little bit more. |

It's hot in main thread just now, because of staking the airdrop stash.
I'm curious about what's the answer from dev will be.

I don't know what your technical background is, but you should probably know that a Tor relay is not the same as an exit node. In fact, it's quite the opposite. Running a relay is perfectly fine and supports the network, running an exit node is risky and is usually done by big institutions. |

Oh, I see, you spoke about a relay ...
So every wallet user acts as a tor relay for all tor activities?

My technical background is normal, can use some softwaretools for finding network traffic. But also did mix up with Tor relay and Tor exit.  |

As i understand it is bacause of POS and the connections to the network... i often have 30 connections to the tor network while wallet is open. im pretty new to this community but it looks really nice and worth to take a look. there are 90% of the coins premined by x13 and getting dropped all over the community, 10% of the coins are for the devs. |

Of course it has, there are many anonymity-focused coins... Monero, Verge, Spectrecoin... latter is the one I am currently involved with, it is basically doing the same as DeepOnion, but do it "right"... we are also operating via Tor, we already have stealth transactions, project transparency, good distribution and community-funded development.  |

Writing that here as well, before it gets deleted.

How does it help you to rank up in Bitcointalk?
DeepOnion has no features other Bitcoin based coins also have. DeepVault? Sure, highly useless. Contrary to what they claim it is also not anonymous. Transactions can be traced on the blockchain as with every other shitcoin out there.
It's a spam coin. People are actively encouraged to spam the whole Internet, Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, Forums, you name them, how superior DeepOnion would be. Which it is not. And they pay people for spamming. It is called DeepPoints.
You can read this up yourself.
Besides being a huge scale spamming operation it does not go anywhere price wise and is stuck on sub 1$ level. There are way better coins out there, with projects attached, not spamming and with a future.
The only thing anonymous with DeepOnion is their creators that hide in the dark. Go figure.

So censorship kicked in the the official thread. I don't repeat all. Just this.
Let's keep it simple. This coin has nothing really to offer.
It's a nice scam to let you all do domination tasks.
Price may go up to 2...3$. That time the developers will dump all the premined coins and all of you "dominators" will be left out in the rain.
My advice, watch the volume closely and when it shoots up, sell immediately or lose all.

Sold my onions today for a nice 100+% profit for 2$ a piece (LTC market). Nice 1000$ present, even before Xmas. Thanks for the hype, your spam, and the fish  . |

The functionality they call "DeepSend" and were unable to implement so far is called coin mixing. There are a number of coins that have this already and are truly anonymous, like Monero, Dash or Zcash. Also TOR is nothing new.
They forked the code somewhere, I'm too lazy to look this up now, and got stuck with it. A nice bunch of logos and graphics or a forum does not mean they can code anything for real.
People should watch Deeponion very closely. It's a huge hype and a big community was created to do guerrilla marketing and spam everywhere how good Deeponion would be, which it isn't. On the other hand we have anonymous developers that sit on a huge stash of premined coins.
Price is driven up by the clueless community. At one point will a threshold be reached, when all the millions of premined coins will be dumped. That will be probably towards the end of the airdrops in about 5 months from now, or when a set limit is reached, or it could also be a stop loss trigger should the pricetrend turn negative. And that will be the end of the flight for the Onions. Lot's of people will lose lots of money, but greed eats brain. So it shall be.
