- gk1 13y agoMy first thought was "sounds too good to be true, what's the catch?" and sure enough one of the first links is "Learn how we make money." That link goes to the FAQ section where they explain that.
- ngd 13y agoThey've got a few revenue generating plans: * charge for API access * provide a margin facility (charge interest on a loan provided to facilitate trading).
- rquantz 13y agoThe question is, will API access be billed per transaction, or some flat fee? The former will make it difficult to do much that's very interesting, but you could have a lot of fun experimenting within a flat fee structure.
