The airdrop hype has of course played a big role here
It's 100% the airdrop that is driving this price action. In a bull market this would have made a mild jump in price, but with people in the trading world being bored right now they will jump on anything that moves.
I wouldn't be suprised that even a few days before the air drop hits the price begins to go back down and a few weeks after the air drop if the price doesn't do a 100% correction.
It's just a waste of time if you ask me marketing like this because most of the time it's all hype with no or very little follow through.
