Had to write my own in Scala/Akka (I use FIX protocol where possible). However, opensourcing these things is always educational.

Last I checked (a few years ago) no exchanges except the defunct bitfloor supported FIX, has this changed?

Love the idea. Do any exchanges have fee structures that allow for profitable market-making? This always seemed like a big problem in the cryptocurrency markets to me.

Yup, GDAX and Gemini have a maker pays 0% fees structure. They both however only allow you to trade BTC and ETH.
