Agg had to make the second layer work first for SPL to even get off the ground. Imagine if Agg did not have to do all the leg work with Hive Engine or if he built SPL on polygon or wax instead where assets have more exposure and flexibility, it seems. Hive is a bit of a walled garden and hard to buy with other currencies with its main listing and trading volume in a south korean exchange that only south koreans can trade in.
