born to trade on the floor of the nyse. Forced to arb moderately illiquid token pairs that large entities write off due to sizing concerns

shhh

bloomberg's moat != the client it's some combo of data, licensing, institutional connections, and network effects crypto is interesting because a lot of these barriers are lower or non-existent. market data is accessible, exchanges have APIs, onchain data is public (licensing/relationships seem to matter less) meanwhile liquidity is fragmented across dozens of CEXs/DEXs, everyone juggling 15 different interfaces, platforms, execution tools, etc. so hypothetically why not just aggregate all of it? unified terminal, cross-exchange trading, consolidated data, advanced execution, etc all in one place. wouldn't that be a great product? oh wait: @InsilicoTrading 🐸

proprietary + licensed data, decades of historical financial data, real-time feeds, institutional integrations, and network effects. especially bloomberg chat... everyone who is anyone already uses it to communicate and transact. reverse engineering the client doesn't give you the existing user network that make bloomberg valuable

deepseek on api and opus 5.5 on sub are crazy good value per dollar compared to a year ago. inference itself is so accessible rn hardware is grim tho

Bloomberg's moat isn't the software client

among other things yes :)
