1) FTX stalled for a few minutes today. Really sorry about that! Growth --> load, and this seems like as compelling a sign as any that we're getting closer to capacity.
So we'll divert some resources this month to scaling up that capacity a ton.

2) Last time we did a big push, our ADV was $1b. It's about 6x that now; we 10x'ed capacity, so it makes some sense that it's time for round 2.
The good news is that we've already written most of the next features for this -- so shouldn't take too long.
You had a crazy growth since 1st time i used FTX, very good job Sam 👏

Good work Sam.
Scaling isn't easy. FTX has become my go-to exchange the past few months because comparatively there is no comparison really. Every other exchanges lagged like shit under this recent pressure.
Good to hear you don't just accept these issues and have a plan.

P.S. would it be possible to add $SC for trading? I know there's a tad bit extra work integrating their wallet but I know first hand they are one of the hardest working teams in the industry. OG coin with staying power.

I don't care so much about being down itself, that happens. BUT what I don't like is the lack of feedback. orderbook just turning empty and black and orders say "error". On bitfinex, you have some notice saying "lost websocket connection" and stuff like that
