I'd add trading Futures to the mix too or Options on Futures. The beauty with the Futures market is it's open 24/7(though liquidity might be a problem in the night) and there are only a limited number of futures markets/commodities you need to keep track of. Just stick to the S&P, Nasdaq, Treasury, Crude Oil & Gold. You can do some currencies if you like. Yes it's highly leveraged so more risky but that's why you make risk management front and center of any strategy you end up using to enter a trade.
So do you proxy your calls from S3 to a serverless service? And do you handle cross origin calls via CORS? Just curious because I've never used serverless before.
You can use JavaScript on the frontend to call a Lambda function that you 100% control (including CORS, etc). You can use this to do things like authentication, authorization, and rate limiting, as well, versus just giving open access to an internal datastore.
This is a serious deal. The rest of the year is going to be a real test for Tesla! It'll be real interesting to see if they can rebound from this.
I wonder if the Tesla board is thinking of doing an Uber and replace Musk with a more calmer executive! Wouldn't be surprised if he gets fired after this.

I would be. They have stood by him so far, this isn't going to push them over the edge. Besides, who would they replace him with?
If the SEC fines him, he'll pay the fine and get on with his life.
Part of being a visionary CEO is making choices that other people don't like, and sticking with them. As a janitor, you can suggest all you want, but unless you're on the Board, you can't force things through (unless you rely on backchannel bribery or coercion or other unsavory means).
If you are planning to eventually automate this with some sort of recommendation engine, then I hope you're at least capturing all the data and analytics currently to help drive that in the future!
Trouble is it's still not mainstream enough for everyone to start accepting it as a form of payment but that will change with time. For instance visit amazonbitcoin.com and see what happens!
Sure, I can buy some btc and go buy something with it in some places. But where is my incentive to do that, rather than just go use my credit card or an ACH transfer? Btc is not more convenient, it's not cheaper, and whatever gain in privacy there currently is will not survive a transition to mainstream usage...although the first two problems ensure that there never will be mainstream usage.
