Article: The Difference between DeepPoints and DeepOnions
DEC 5TH - Dear lovely fellow onions . A lot of new members ask me what the difference is between DeepPoints and DeepOnions. Since these two really resemble is it pretty understandable. That's why i decided to explain the difference to you.
DeepOnions
DeepOnions, these are the real currency of the DeepOnion Project. DeepOnions are coins, just like the bitcoin. If there will be business which can be payed whit our currency, you would pay it with DeepOnions. DeepOnions are the coins you can buy in the exchange. You can buy this coin with the bitcoin. So it's like your buying 5 coins (DeepOnion) of 1 dollar with a bill (bitcoin) of 5 dollar. DeepOnion is the currency showed in blockexplorers.
DeepPoints
DeepPoints, these are the points rewarded by participation to this community. DeepPoints can be earned by writing posts, getting likes, getting followers, doing DeepDomination tasks, starting threads, polls and all the other participation on the forum. This will give you some DeepPoints. All the DeepPoints are stored on a pile. This pile can be seen at your profile info. The DeepPoints are the figures you see under every member's name.
Every action has a reward of DeepPoints. This actions can be found in the following screenshot. This will show you the total amount of every action you do. From logging in to posting a thread.
DeepDominationTasks
Also DeepDominationTasks have DeepPoint rewards. These rewards are higher than the normal "actions". The rewards are significant and that's why cheaters love to spam those tasks. Just to "farm" DeepPoints.
The difference
The difference is simple. The DeepOnion is the coin, the DeepPoints are the rewards of participation.
