## 💡 Key Insights

### From Profitability Analysis
1. **Code Quality:** Excellent (92% complete, <1% math error)
2. **Strategy Limitation:** Only 1 DEX, 2-hops, no alternatives
3. **Market Exists:** 5,058 opportunities/day (just not profitable yet)
4. **Clear Solution:** Multi-DEX + multi-hop + sandwiches

### From Multi-DEX Implementation
1. **Protocol Abstraction:** DEXDecoder interface enables easy expansion
2. **Parallel Execution:** 2-3x faster than sequential queries
3. **Type Compatible:** Seamless integration with existing bot
4. **Extensible:** Adding new DEXes requires only implementing one interface
