mircea_popescu: anyway, in general it's a minimum standards approach

mircea_popescu: that's not forbidden. but it would be weird to require exchanges to accept both json and xml imput

mircea_popescu: FabianB_ moreover, the spec is not restrictive. some exchange might decide to implement STATXML too

mircea_popescu: json would seem like undue burden

mircea_popescu: many of those commands are being issued by hand

mircea_popescu: people should comment

mircea_popescu: well no, it's a proposal

mircea_popescu: otherwise this exists as internal stuff for about a year now

mircea_popescu: (maybe it changed, i haven't kept up)

mircea_popescu: no json afaik

mircea_popescu: the bot is ahead anually, iirc

mircea_popescu: i used to think the mpcd series was, but that blew up.

mircea_popescu: has it ?

mircea_popescu: as long as you explain the deal properly

mircea_popescu: so go ahead

mircea_popescu: you need at least 50 btc to qualify.

mircea_popescu: where lol

mircea_popescu: you do undertake the risk tho. if the bot loses money you're on the hook.

mircea_popescu: well, an almost month. from last friday of one month till the last friday of next month.

mircea_popescu: a month.

mircea_popescu: last month it settled at 9%
