Right, but you can't (currently) do:

1. Snap decision to buy HIVE on an exchange.
2. Install some kind of hive-wallet tool to generate a public/private pair as your wallet.
3. Transfer funds to newly provisioned wallet.

Instead, it's a slightly bigger hassle (slightly bigger to us, massively bigger hassle to people who are unfamiliar with our blockchain). That's all I'm getting at. There's no path to do a snap decision to buy HIVE and get it off the exchange, like many other blockchains support.
