Recently, browsing on-chain data always feels like it "lags for a moment," at first I thought my internet was acting up again... but then I realized it's probably not. Many dashboards/frontends rely on indexers and subgraphs behind the scenes to organize on-chain events; when you click, you're actually waiting for the update queue. Plus, RPCs often have rate limits, and during peak times, requests get queued or directly return 429 errors. The feeling is like clicking a button with no response, then suddenly it jumps out after a couple of seconds.

To put it simply, the on-chain data isn't slow; it's this middle layer that's struggling. Now, with the recent fluctuations driven by expectations of interest rate cuts, discussions about the US dollar index and risk assets moving together are heating up, and on-chain interactions suddenly increase, making rate limiting more obvious. I’m just testing with small positions myself; the key is to compare data from two sources to avoid getting flustered by the "Loading..." message.
