My thoughts:
No coin will gain value without being blessed by a whale, regardless of the technology / innovation. Crave had nothing exciting but still went pretty high. The entire crypto market is under their control! Also, if a coin is widely spreaded whales don't touch it and small players will get tired of holding and eventually dump it and that opens up another opportunity for whales to hold the majority of pie and play with the price.
Most importantly, the more you tweet about a coin and its innovation they will make sure it dies they have their eyes on Twitter, but morons would keep tweeting to have more followers.....sharing is good, do it over PMs there are many ways to share.
If a coin is steady it is just because of genuine supporters like us, the moment whales get it, it will spike up and then they will dump it hard, same dirty game! Never forget "Money makes money". We could make few bucks out of it too, but frankly not interested in those few bucks! If something is innovative with a dedicated developer it deserves to grow, unfortunately that is never the case.
