Well, plenty of traditional prop trading firms have moved into crypto. So I'm sure a lot of those routes are actually already being pursued to an extent. The biggest problem though is due to the relative lack of regulation, most traders are really going to struggle against the exchanges themselves. Flash crashes to trigger stop loss orders, front-running between exchanges, getting caught in pump and dump schemes etc. There are just so many dodgy activities that wouldn't last 10 seconds on a regulated exchange right now. And remember, you don't need to be smarter than average, the vast majority of traders are likely systematically losing money.
