Changing the hashrate does nothing to supply, it certainly does not inflate or deflate supply.The amount of supply generated each day / week / month does not change when there is lower or higher hashrate.
With regards to the market : the market punishes most Altcoins at this stage, not just Dash and it does not exclude PoW coins like Bitcoin Cash or Zcash either.

If the market really values competitive mining over less competitive mining, then it would have valued PoW coins like Bitcoin Cash and Zcash higher. Instead they have the exact same price performance as Dash.
  

Never loose faith, ICX is one good project from thousands out there which stood the test of time, maybe it won't reach the ATH since the market matures and the fomo from 2017-2018 won't be as hard as it was, but I think Icon have a lot of room to go to $1-2 again.

Additionally, we are actually right now having a 20% correction after a 30% spike, so wait for the best moment and buy when the situation with BTC and ETH improves.

Monero will likely hit tail a few months before AEON, as it launched before AEON and they are on basically the same schedule, though hash rate changes and such can cause them to diverge a bit.

Have a little patience and you can be convinced of the seriousness of our intentions to make a truly innovative cryptocurrency that will solve most of the existing problems.

It's not particularly surprising that newcomers to cryptocurrency don't have much interest in Namecoin.  Namecoin is derived from the culture that permeated the Bitcoin community in 2010-2011, which was a culture that was here for the tech, not to make easy money.  Today's cryptocurrency culture doesn't look much like that (sadly), so Namecoin is of little interest to them.  On the other hand, there's plenty of interest in other areas, e.g. in the Tor community.  Even a bit of media coverage now and then.

Real cypherpunks don't worry about whatever market fads are en vogue now.  Cypherpunks write code.

BTCU increases the size of Bitcoin blocks in an effort to solve the cryptocurrency's inability to handle large amounts of transactions. It also addresses the cryptocurrency's mining centralization, making it more egalitarian by excluding expensive and powerful ASICs that has taken over Bitcoin. Again, it offers users anonymity by adjoining the ability to conduct transactions privately within the network. Through this option, users who value privacy can switch between public and private ledgers while making transactions.

Meanwhile we reach the new bottom.
Keep watching.

@bitpotter. Also in all of its market history, Aeon's price was 10% of Monero's price. Monero is presently trading on $89 and based in market history, this implies that Aeon might be very undervalued.

From the latest news, I would mention the BTC Ultimatum (BTCU) team's participation in the just ended, 11th Global Family Office Investment Summit held in Monaco.
The event attracted more than 600 private investment offices and some of the richest people in the world with an estimated wealth over $4.5 trillion.

The Ritossa’s Family Office Summit was aimed at discussing alternative investments and the impact of family office investments on human wellbeing. With stocks and bonds becoming more unpredictable, there is a risk in making forecasts based on outdated models and, consequently, alternative assets have become an important point of discussion in times of unpredictable volatile market behavior, financiers need a safe haven to preserve and increase their wealth.

Mykola Udianskyi, the head of the Bitcoin Ultimatum project, also addressed the theme of intangible assets. Additionally, the head of the blockchain development company Prof-it Blockchain presented BTCU, an improved version of Bitcoin, which solves the problem with the scalability and energy consumption of classic bitcoin, and also allows launching smart contracts and supports DAPPs.

The conference also touched on a range of including sustainable investments, blockchain technologies, artificial intelligence, fintech, charity and women’s rights in Arab countries and many other questions.

If you carefully study our White Paper, you will understand that BTCU coin has a number of advantages over other Bitcoin forks.

A little patience my friend. We will announce launch dates soon.
