[GNC] Unable to retrieve currency quotes

[ml enquirer]

I've tried making a copy of the account and deleting hundreds (or
thousands) of transactions. This didn't make much difference (though just
now one of the two currency requests seemed to succeed). Immediately
afterwards, though, the same "Get Quotes" reverted to its standard error
message.

Is AlphaVantage really very unstable? I tried with a new API key but with
no luck.
