SegWit activation on these small coins is not really a hype material news. and it won't really matter in the long run either. this coin is in the 2 digit satoshi range anyways which means the demand for it is not really high. so in fact we can't really be hopeful for it as we are about litecoin and the effects it can have with addition of lightning network to litecoin.
with that said the price seems to not agree with me much since it has moved up but that can possibly be because it is a small market.
