How Positive Behavior Reigns Inside the Deep Onion Community

A typical online cryptocurrency community grows in correlation with the interests of its people and that of the developers of the coin. The community want their coin to be unique, with features that in the future would translate to value for the coin. The developers want their coin project to be successful; to be used by many people in the real world. All these translate to big financial rewards for both parties if they can work together and achieve their objectives.

In the ideal world, both developers and the community work together in a positive environment where they cooperate and help one another. Unfortunately, the real world shows us the many conflicting interests that aligning all those to achieve a single goal are quite a challenge. People often become confrontational and impatient when their investment in a coin loses value. Developers can become indifferent when they see their efforts not being appreciated and compensated. If this negativity spirals out of control, the community loses interest in the coin and abandons it while the developers burn out and stop improving the coin. This leads to the demise of the project.

The airdrop system created by the Deep Onion team has produced many positive effects. To better understand the Deep Onion Airdrop, please check my previous article “Building An Online Community, The Deep Onion Experience” for more details. The conditions placed upon the initial participants of the Deep Onion airdrop encouraged positivity, cooperation, community contribution, and civility towards one another in the community. These behaviors were rewarded handsomely by the system the developers have put into place. These coin rewards are now worth a significant amount of bitcoins or dollars. Destructive behaviors such as quarrelling, cheating, unruliness, intolerance, and uncooperative ways were punished severely by the airdrop system that resulted in members being banned or blacklisted from the airdrop. Once a member was banned or blacklisted, it was very difficult to get back into the airdrop list. Those who were able to get back had to prove to the community and developers that they were worth accepting back. They had to contribute to the project and be active in the community.

The Deep Onion community was built and shaped on encouraged positive behavior using very strict rules. Even though the rules have now been changed and relaxed, the positive culture of the community has already been ingrained. It is unlikely that the community will change when new participants to the airdrop arrive.

If you join the Deep Onion forum, you will immediately feel welcomed. Some are even too eager to help. In the forum, you will not be whimsically bashed or severely criticized for no apparent reason at all. For a change, this is a forum where people are careful with what they write, unlike the careless posts many net citizens do in the internet. We still live in the real world so conflict naturally arises with some flare ups in emotion. But the active moderators quickly step in and calm the situation. This kind of scenario rarely happens and you will be lucky if you chance upon one.

No system is perfect but the airdrop system created by the Deep Onion team has built a very vibrant, excited, helpful and cooperative community. A situation has now been created wherein a coin can easily become successful. The community and its ways are two factors for a successful project. The next critical factor is the technologies that the Deep Onion developers will build in the Deep Onion coin. The developers have so far delivered with TOR integration and DeepVault. Two other features are planned which are Deep Send and Smart Contracts. Both features are the two of the most sought after in the cryptocurrency industry right now. The future looks bright for the Deep Onion community and Deep Onion Developers.
