Just like in traditional markets there are all kinds of applications. Some devs might be building tools to assist human traders, some might be working on market making / liquidity providing, some might be working on execution algos for the various funds that have popped up. My ideal product is very different from someone else's, it just depends on what your business model is. For the follow up question, I would suggest looking at the rise of automated trading in traditional markets. It is an overwhelmingly large % of trades and market activity these days, and I would call the largest financial markets in the world anything but stagnant. The more players and liquidity in a market, the more efficient the price discovery can be, which I think would be a very good thing for the long term viability of crypto markets. I guess to summarize, the crypto markets are not much different from traditional markets and getting more similar every day.
