yes and no...damn. it is true if the amount of money going in on first day reaches a kind of network effect
But there is the opposing force of fewer tokens per $1.
Dan however is likely just saying free market will establish the price and he expects this day to have the most volume and therefore made it so a large amount could be purchased to establish that price on the first day. And sadly there is very little historical data on this one because ags was only tried once...though it is a very fair distribution scheme imo.
