The positive for the exchanges would be?
Well the exchanges like them, bots pay fees too.
Funny you mention this. Do you ever notice how may of those bot orders never go through? They are strictly there as false place holders and continue to change as the market changes and they cancel the orders and add them back in at a different price? So actually I would say on a percentage of traffic and stress on the system vs completed orders - bots are a complete nuisance to the exchanges.
