That's mostly true although a price explosion would do good in the sense that it grabs the attention of a lot of people who might get into BTCZ then.
Bitcoin Z witnessed at least two price explosions and I am certainly that it got big attention from whales, who really want to manipulate its coins and take profits from Bitcoin Z.
who, if now a whale, donated those BTCs for bigger exchange list. I think we will see something magical soon. Remora fish..
