Kalpesh,

There did not seem to be much enthusiasm or interest, so at that time the idea died on the vine. Pretty much all the "stable" sources require an API key/token, as we all well know that using YahooJSON can be problematic when Yahoo makes changes.

Since AlphaVantage for the time being allows any string, I have been toying with the idea of generating a random API token in the AV currency module is one is not supplied. Easy add using String::Random to produce what looks like a regular 16 character AV token. I am going to change it to have the environment variable take precedence over what may have been passed in.
