Today, on-chain data is "lagging" again. At first, I thought it was my internet crashing, so I kept refreshing the candlestick charts... but it turned out that the indexer/Subgraph was catching up on synchronization, plus RPC rate limiting was throttling the requests. Basically, what you're seeing isn't "the chain has stopped," but someone is quietly copying data in the background. No use rushing them.

What's even more annoying is that these days everyone is complaining about MEV and fair ordering again. Validators are making good money, while retail investors are left only with "why am I always a step behind when placing orders." I'll be honest now: I only trust my own stop-loss at key price levels, treat data delays as noise, and when I get itchy, I just turn off Twitter and go for a run... Anyway, whenever I get impulsive, the candlestick charts start fighting back against me.
