[bisq-network/proposals] Market price feed aggregator (#26)

[Chris Beams]

I've been slow in responding to this proposal, my apologies.

I would not want to see a new service developed. I'd want to see capabilities added to the existing bisq-pricenode service (one of the options @ManfredKarrer suggests above).

It's true that our reliance on BitcoinAverage and the other services are technically single points of failure and it would definitely be good to eliminate that, but I also don't see it as terribly high priority. If something catastrophic happened (BitcoinAverage goes down, gets hacked, whatever), we could mitigate it and redeploy a patched pricenode within a day.

In any case, I would happily work with an experienced Java developer to show them around the pricenode app, find the right approach to implementing these changes, and then let them on their own to implement a PR.

This feels more like a bounty issue for the pricenode than a net new proposal per se. We've gotten very little feedback on this proposal, and I wonder if that's why. It's kind of "down in the weeds". Anyway, even though per the proposals process this should have been closed one way or another a long time ago (my bad), I'll leave this open a bit longer to get any additional feedback.
