Anyways, working on writing an aggregate tip provider that I can read from synchronously on the hot path, yet update async on the cold path.
Hot path just issues requests such as give me p99 for Jito or whatever.
Always fun to wrestle with Tokio. Actually, it's not bad once…
one of the things i've learned about incredibly competent people is that they are incredibly competent at everything. it's either nothing or all. like, if someone is really good at one thing, they tend to be good at everything

I still plan to continue working on solana MEV / HFT.
Running 24/7 now - losing currently but very little.…
high earning 20-somethings without kids are shouldering a disproportionate social burden in western countries. ~40% tax but not benefitting from any of the tax spend. they are all better off getting remote work, uae residency and multiple bases
