Not long time ago people were buying GBYTE because of the airdrops (and were immediately dumping it on Bittrex ) and neglecting the technology completely. Now when airdrops have been put on pause (till march 2018...) people can & will reconsider the coin and its potential. The main goal was to promote Byteball as much as possible among the Bitcoin community (the largest to date) and it was done in a timely manner and smartly. Now its time to explore it and use it properly.

Taking into account only the heavy development work which is ongoing non-stop since launch of the project,  creates trust to this project (check github). Coinmarketcap displays majority ICOs coins with no product whatsoever just WP site (in best case scenario), so ask yourself, when the dust settles with ICOs where the money will go? (90% of them will fail at the end). I personally believe in projects that have a solid foundation, reputation and product of course and Byteball has its all.

P.S. I mentioned only the development, not the actual possibilities of the Byteball
