Increase Cache TTL +**File:** `pkg/scanner/market/scanner.go` +```go +// Current: cacheTTL set to RPCTimeout (likely 30s) +// Recommended: Increase to 5 minutes +cacheTTL: 5 * time.Minute +``` + +#### 3. Implement Request Batching +Batch multiple pool queries into single multicall requests to reduce RPC calls by 80%. + +### Medium-Term Actions + +#### 1. Add Request Queue with Rate Limiter +Implement a global rate limiter that queues requests and releases them at controlled rate. + +#### 2. Upgrade Chainstack Plan +- **Current**: Likely Growth plan (~25 RPS) +- **Recommended**: Business plan (50 RPS) or Enterprise (100+ RPS) +- **Cost vs Benefit**: More RPS = fewer errors, faster detection + +#### 3. Add Fallback RPC Providers +Configure multiple providers with automatic failover: +- Primary: Chainstack (paid) +- Secondary: Alchemy (paid) +- Tertiary: Public endpoints (rate-limited) + +### Long-Term Optimizations + +#### 1. Implement GraphQL Queries +Use The Graph protocol to reduce direct RPC calls for pool data. + +#### 2. Subscribe to Real-Time Events +Use WebSocket subscriptions instead of polling for block data. + +#### 3.
