Topic: DEEP ONION SCAM!!!! - page 5. (Read 2420 times)
damn the responses here are ridiculous. The Deep Onion herd are flocking here to defend the coin to their death haha. Hopefully you wake up one day and realize how you've been all tricked to a p & d system
The airdrop is fair, it has certain rules. Newbies aren't welcome, because then, everyone would be making 10 accounts and getting x10 ONIONS.
There are new rules now and they're much softer. Previously you had to keep 90% of coins in your wallet, now that rule is gone.

Why don't they have a whitepaper?
Why are they on only one exchange?

Deep onion really did pick a weird distribution scheme for its system's tokens. I think that it's quite indicative of the seriousness of the project. Its market capitalization has remained low thought the release of it and I don't think that it will be going anywhere higher. More than likely that it will be forgotten sooner or later, no big loss.
The new rules are the compromise between making members invest in the community and rewarding those have put more effort in. Yes, you can buy your way up the % ladder, but mostly those are going to be the members that have been there since the beginning that have earned their onions through the airdrops. I personally don't have a lot of onions so I'm on the newbie side of things, and I can see the compromise being made here. Previously any freeloader could just do their minimum posts per week and earn some onion, now they added another drop that anyone can get into on the forum for being active. Both these together make it more obvious that their goal is to reward those that participate.
I have been following the project closely these last weeks and at least I think people are especially committed to the project, taking solid steps towards the consolidation of a truly interesting and useful crypto.
The simple fact that it is distributed through airdrops, and that its distribution rules are modified over time does not make it scam, although many people complain and cry for having missed the opportunity to join at a better time.

Airdrops are a scam anyway.
What is your reasoning behind such a statement? Did you even think for a second before posting something so silly? I agree that majority of the airdrops are indeed scams, but there are airdrops like NEM, Decred, DeepOnion etc that have rewarded people with a lot of free money for just signing up for their airdrop. I am talking about thousands of dollars. DeepOnion actually made many people happy by giving them free money on a regular basis(2 of my friends can attest to this) and people still call it a scam. They have the right to change their rules whenever they want to. I can see why deeponion is scam. Then pretty much every coin out there is scam becouse they are all based on same principle...
Some really good projects out there. For DEEPONION I think the recent airdrop kind of exposed them.

So i was scouting BCT for some new airdrops and found the Deep Onion one. It seems to have a solid community at first but upon deep research in their forum it seems like there's a problem with their new airdrop system. The new participants are now required 100 Onions to participate and the previously BCT rank based distribution was changed to a percentage. This sounds fine when you first here it but when you do the math, all the top holders will be holding 1/8 of the total airdrop distribution system!! There is a very large gap with the old participants vs the new ones, imagine the top holders having 100K onions that receives 7k onions a week vs new participants which receives a mere 7 PIECES - that's right you read it properly, 7 pieces.
And to think that they removed the 90% hold rule, the top holders gaining a massive 1000 times Onion per week could just dump their onions to all the new participants who needs to buy 100 pieces to participate in the supposedly "FREE" airdrop.

For newcomers it's pointless. Newcomers basically invest for the longterm holders who do f all.
None are missing out yet, but you have to do something else than shouting scam if you want in.
Even if you for whatever reason can't join the airdrop, there are lots of ways to get coins for free by contributing to the project.
I got 150 onions today (I must be easy to bribe) just from being active on the forums and trying help a little where I see I can (bugs, suggestions, what not), and in addition some from giveaways and events in the deeponion forum.
The 150 onions are from less than 2 weeks, and I'm not the spammy kind of guy.
The airdrop model may seem unfair, but there are still 23 airdrops left, so if you do a little bit of an effort, you can join, and still even have a chance getting founder status, if your bitcointalk account is created before 1.oct. You need jr member status too. (I just got in on the airdrop, contributing to the scam:p)

What a shame, it looked like it had real potential. Will be staying well away from it. Thanks for the info.
So what is the problem? Try another airdrops or find a work to get money for future investments. There are too many projects,so will be great count of scams.
I'm not disappointed because I'm missing out - I'm disappointed because it seemed to have nice features and to be a good project.
Hah, a new registered account...
BTW, did you see there is a big volume trading in last several days? How can you prove that the big whale dumped the coins? In order to get more coins, I actually bought a lot. I believe this project is worth to invest, and then I just buy the coin.

So what if I'm new, i just stated that I am new to crypto and looking to get in some airdrop coins, does it make my post less valid now? yes, a big volume after falling from 5USD just weeks ago lol.
I new to crypto but not new to trading. I'm a stocks trader before moving in to this crypto space, so better check you facts before labeling someone. and checking on the chart, it sure was a pump and dump scheme when it rose from 5 and dropped to less than a dollar. happens to penny stocks as well 80-90% of the time.

I knew it, from the beginning it looked like it was a sh! tcoin 
I just think the marketing of the onion team is fantastic.But!!!He didn't elaborate on the development of Onions!I see every day in the BBS discussion posts about Onions, most of them are promoting the participation of onion, attract more people to participate, and for the introduction of the development team and the update of onion, is just a few.
They have a good "marketing" only because they use and allow others to make multiple accounts and tell them to spam Bitcoin talk...

Yes there are a good marketing team we do all to have more interest from investors and they even have a dedicated forum, the only problem is at the level of their aidrop.If they are not careful everything will be fine until the end of their airdrop, at this moment most of their big investors are going dump and the price will drop
