It will depend on the services that are implemented on the sidechains. In the end is all about supply and demand, if the services are useful and attractive to users will increase demand.
you can think of sidechains as alt-coins that are technically still Bitcoin.

If you own Bitcoins, they can now do more and are more valuable because why would people still use doge when you could have bitcoin + doge in one?
