Fantastic post, I have one doubt if you dont mind answering, I am sure you have seen coinmarketcap or cryptocompare. How exactly do you think they are able to receive websocket data from so many exchanges in real time? Do you think they have a single process where a websocket client opens multiple connections to each exchange endpoint or are they using multiple processes where each process connects exactly to one endpoint. I am aware you are not the creator of Coinmarketcap or Cryptocompare but I am just trying to get your perspective using any of these technologies from a real time application’s standpoint, doesnt look like they use Long polling though
