I never understood the whole price will fall after airdrops comment. In my opinion itll do the opposite and go up more because all the freeload dumpers will be gone.
Price may fall if a lot of people who were in it just for the airdrop sell as supply will increase which is a standard economics theory, the same way we generally see a dip in price after each airdrop as some people sell their airdropped coins.
Long term though, as we see after that initial period after airdrop, the price should pick back up after that short period of instability as new investors enter the market and old investors pick up some cheap ONIONs ready to HODL some more.
With the constant development of DeepOnion there is no good reason why it cannot survive and flourish after the final airdrop.
