Can never say anything for sure. I'm interested in all the privacy coins, so I'm jumping on this train too.
However, DeepOnion devs need to deliver their deepsend feature ASAP to be a real contender in the market. It's important not to hide only IP, but also inputs, outputs, origins and destinations of your transactions. Otherwise, it can just be chain analyzed, which is really in the wind these days (and then hiding your IP is pretty useless).
