I don't agree. Look at Stellar Lumens for example, another coin I received through airdrops. I got them around the same time as the Byteball airdrops, and both coins had about the same market cap.
Stellar went up, Byteball went down. Stellar's market cap is now almost 100 times larger than Byteball's market cap, while less than 20% of all XLM has been distributed.

All Byteball needs to do is "catch on", and it can easily go 100x or more. But since I've been hoping for that, only the opposite has happened.
Undistributed funds that can be used for promotions are still an edge.
