I was thinking about it a lot recently... This is pure speculation but I believe with both infrastructure and algorithms / data science we ended up in a sweet spot: ordinary algo-traders and small teams are quite unlikely to get that far and big guys don't care about "pennies" we're making due to their fixed costs (salaries alone in a hedge fund would make our current strategy non viable).
