http://connect.thecurrencycloud.com/api-docs/introduction-tcc-connect-api/Looks like it is a automated currency-exchange service. Didn't see any bitcoin references, so they are probably taking a scoop off the top for operating expenses and just routing money via ABA/Swift/Whatever instead. How pedestrian.

It seems that they might have overlooked bitcoin..
I hope for them that they did not spend too much on legacy systems.

They have not overlooked Bitcoin The CEO of Currency Cloud Mike Laven is a friend of ours, and Bitinstant has already signed a partnership agreement with them to handle Bitcoin business. I can't say anymore, but you will see an announcement within 2 weeks. -Caharlie |

Currency Cloud was our hardest since they are owned by a few UK banks. However, after meetings and such we got the green light about 6 weeks ago. |
