DeepOnion is making a nice staircase chart, you can just walk right up and get some before they pass the 10$ mark, and keep walking until you get to the moon.
Bad jokes aside - have a look if you haven't already - it is a solid project, the team have proven that time and time again.
On top of the investment opportunity, there is still airdrop going, and they have lots of bounties and even giveaways on their forums.
The community is passing 10.000 members about now, the announcement here on bitcointalk is the 3rd most replied to of all altcoin announcements ever:

https://novaexchange.com/addnodes/ONION/)
Happy New Year!
No offence, but you show chart from one week and you call this project solid!? Take a look at the chart of any top 10 altcoin to see what it means solid. This coins working to achieve this positions years - this is solid base!
That's fair, one week is not very long - but you have to at least acknowledge that this coin has made tremendous progress for only being around approximately 6 months. Not only that, but looking from an investor's standpoint, the extremely low coin supply (in relation to a lot of other altcoins) combined with the next 14 weeks of airdrops means that the price of this coin is ready to pop. The airdrops have been updated to factor in how many onions are in your wallet, so this means there's 587 dedicated hodlers, and each one has to have at least 100 onions in their wallet. Here's a larger picture on coinmarketcap, over three months.
First off, I'd like to point out that the price never dropped below ~$0.50. Over the course of three months, we never saw any major price drops. This is at least in part to the constant updates that the devs have been putting out - not only to the DeepOnion official forum, but to the wallet, and to different activities in the community (such as the DeepPoints system, which rewards users for participation). People have realized that this group of administrators is always listening to the community, as demonstrated by their reactions to what people have to say. We were getting a lot of complaints about our members spamming boards and not making good comments - so the administrators cut everyone off of the rewards system, and now it's by application only. So, there is a competent team of developers, leading a low supply coin that is privacy based (Tor integrated, and currently contributing over 800 nodes) - so when you look at these charts, and see the price jump over the past week to a new ATH of $8.00, does it seem more of a pump-and-dump, or that the community of over 10,000 members with thousands of them convinced that Onion is undervalued is starting to affect the market?
It's not just a hype train with new investors getting sucked into a project they don't understand. The whitepaper has been a long time coming, but the technology implemented into the DeepOnion wallet is attractive even to experienced investors. The key feature is the Tor integration for sending transactions, which not only routes your IP through the Tor network but helps the entire Tor network in general by acting as a node (hence the 800+ I mentioned earlier). But, my personal favorite is the DeepVault. I'll be honest, this took a little while to grow on me, but I really like this program now. You can take whatever files you want, and for a low fee, pay to have that file permanently attached to the blockchain and verifiable with your public address. I'm personally a fan of PGP verification, and Kleopatra for Windows doesn't allow images because "reasons", I guess. The DeepOnion team solved this, and created DeepVault. There's a web-browser edition being worked on right now, and is one of their highest priorities to be released. Further along in the future is DeepSend, which is going to be an integrated coin mixing system to anonymize transactions from address to address (similar to bitcoin mixing systems found on the deep web).
I really think that the team has some amazing ideas and it's obvious that they're trying their hardest, plus they keep their reward for all this work until the end (2,500,000 onion given to them at the end of the 40 weeks). The progress that this coin has made to becoming well-known and important in this community has been incredible over the last six months, and while it's obviously up to you to join in and see, don't say I didn't tell you to.
