As a fund manager, I wish there was a data warehousing service I could pay for with a queryable by the minute (or better granularity) API that captured multiple exchanges across multiple countries for the top 50 coins.

To get live data from ICE--the exchange that withdrew the request--I'm currently paying a broker $120/month. By comparison, just about every crypto exchange currently offers push feeds and historical data for free. In most cases you don't even need to sign in. In some sense this is a measure of the immaturity of crypto markets. But it's also a reminder that with main institutional players moving in, the barriers to e…
