Last night before bed, I checked the blockchain, clearly seeing that a certain address had just "moved," but it took more than ten minutes for other dashboards to pop up... I then realized: what we see on the "chain" is often actually broadcasted to you by nodes/RPC/indexers, not real-time live data. When RPCs are busy, they return outdated states, and indexers falling behind makes it even more obvious, especially when you're tracking whale transfers where you want everything aligned within a minute. The experience is: my obsessive-compulsive tendencies are directly cured (so frustrating). Recently, we've been discussing rate cut expectations, the US dollar index moving in sync with risk assets—basically, when sentiment heats up, data is more easily misjudged as "fast." Anyway, now I query at least two RPCs for the same transaction, and casually check the raw tx to be a bit slower but more reassuring.
