That's the thing - I don't even think that I read it - I think it was something I heard on the radio or in a tech podcast (no idea which one as I listen to several and didn't keep track of listened/deleted episodes). It was one of those situations where I wasn't listening closely and just had it playing in the background as background noise. Sorry for my inattentiveness!
You probably have heard of their
"professional" paid API. The price tag might scare you off ($79-$699 per month!) but it won't replace the current API. For example, the most expensive plan extends the available historical data. I don't think that you need any of these features. The target audience are mostly developers and large funds.
The new API also tracks crypto-based derivatives markets, with support for futures, options and over-the-counter (OTC) exchanges.
