Damn, this isn’t going to be good news, can’t see them allowing mm’s / profitable accounts continuing.

I've always been a bit nervous of Matchbook because of the ownership structure. I'd rather just duck out if Matchbook have access to my activity.

From the headlines elsewhere seems they have acquired Betdaq - not Betfair

Can you expand a bit on that please? What are the issues here?

Betfair will become the only exchange that will accept api customers?

What about a brand new exchange called the "Bet Angel Exchange"?

I'd personally say that unless you spend super heavy on advertising then getting the client base to make it sustainable is next to impossible.
If I recall someone set up an exchange previously, Trader Joes or something? (that might be a clothes brand :lol: )
Pretty much next to nothing with liquidity in the markets there
