I got a suggestion recently by @KappaMiner to make a comparison between DeepOnion and Verge. They are known as “silent enemies” since they are both anonymous coins. But, there are so many things for both sides that should be considered to determine which are their advantages and disadvantages.
Let's start!

My thoughts on coins
Verge has a bigger supply, which can influence the scarcity. The current price of DeepOnion is way ahead, even though Verge is an older coin! Different algorithms may be the advantage for Verge, but they still don't have Encrypted End-to-End and dual- key stealth addresses. Also, Verge has only PoW, while DeepOnion has both PoW and PoS. You can read more on the official sites and check the official documents, but in my opinion, if you are interested in basics, this is what you should look.
Final Words
DeepOnion is young, Verge had four years to prove its value to the world and it is still at a very low price. DeepOnion is in constant growth, with two great features coming up. Invest now and you won't regret it since I believe that these two would not compete anytime soon.
