The traffic on the road was ridiculously congested today, and I only realized after the coffee had gone cold: sometimes on-chain data also “gets stuck,” and it’s not necessarily because your internet is bad. A lot of the time, it’s the indexer/Subgraph chasing blocks, handling reorganizations, or backfilling historical data, and the front end suddenly ends up missing a chunk; on top of that, RPC rate limiting kicks in—when a bunch of people query the same popular pool, it will return slowly or fail outright, making it look like the “chain has stopped.” Recently, Layer 2 has been trading blows over TPS and fees, but I’m more concerned about whether these underlying infrastructures can actually handle the traffic… to be blunt, when there’s data latency, I’d rather do less—first double-check the collateral and the liquidity withdrawal route, and don’t let community talking points get you carried away.
