What happened? Has the wholesale termination market dried up because it's gone mainstream? Or is Asterisk dying out as a LCR platform? Is anyone still making money terminating calls?
Asterisk was never a particularly good LCR platform; the performance just isn't there, especially given some developments in the race to the bottom, which often require rapid serial forking through 15 vendors before finding one that will actually terminate the call.
Nobody's making money terminating calls in wholesale, except in supremely large volumes. There are still some retail opportunities, and some niche wholesale markets. That's about it.
