Not really. There are advantages to being listed on a decent exchange. Even though I am a long term holder I would feel better knowing that there is a mainstream exchange with decent liquidity should I need it. Many investors feel this way. Additionally, there is significant exposure gained from simply being listed on an exchange. I've discovered several coins/tokens simply because I saw them in the top volume or top movers list or something.
