But that's a bit different from what we are doing.
We concentrate on hard numbers and privacy. You seem to focus on news and community. And it seems to me your API requires a login. Also, your homepage looks nice, but I don't find on it the information I want - cold hard number, graphs! However, I find plenty of stuff I do not want - like twits?? I don't want twitter or anyone else to track me.
Your site looks nice, but I think we have very different goals.
We actually started of with the price. Our goal was to be as low latency as possible. We have all the stats like price, histograms, market cap, etc in there. Most of our infra is keeping number stats on coins and maintaining profiles on them
However, the days of price and marketcap are over. We are seeing that feedback come from larger customers. They want to see code checkins, they want to see what's happening in the different sub-reddits, they want to keep up with what the team is tweeting. All those feeds are important to give you a holistic view of a coin and the market in general.
Anyway, happy to help and share whatever we can. Feel free to drop us a note.
Most sites hide they API behind a login and require a key and signing a TOS. That's not public. Our public API is totally public.
I'll be happy to get in touch, because we are starting with the same goals as you: low latency, and stats.
To see what you have achieved there, can I get a sample of your raw data? Like the first 2 days of december, showing at least the bid/ask/last per exchange, per pair. More if you have more.
It should be stale enough and a small enough window to not cause problem extracting or be of much value. Any format you want is fine. You email me a link to the dump and I'll have a look.
I must say I'm very curious now.
