About the price not moving after alpha.
It's all got to do with the exchange. or lack thereof.
It it were on Bittrex, it would have spiked and gone topped off gradually.
Etherdelta is a mess, I've been trying for several days to add funds there, it doesn't work, whatever browser I use, every deposit is send empty with a few (wei) Gas lost.
No exchange, no market volatility.
It's very strange for a top 50 coin (30 even) to only be on Etherdelta.
