wildly speculating[0]: every other twitter money idea that felon's had so far hasn't worked out, so now they'll try the open-the-data-floodgates model for seeing if the (remaining) databrokers (that still have anything on the site) are willing to give a few pennies more
([0] - I do mean wildly. haven't checked a lick of data to see if the guess hold up. but then, neither would have felon either)
(the far more likely (and far more boring) reason is likely something benign, "there's no developers around to deal with whatever issue ETP is causing on their un-/barely-maintained webUI" is a good candidate)
