🚄How to be FAST?
To make fast BUY and SELL orders, the bot needs to check the blockchain very quickly.
To do so, it needs to get the latest transactions --> this is done by interacting with a "node"
There can be 3 kinds of nodes :
Public Node (=RPC)
Public address : everybody can connect to this node.
1/5
Rented private Node
Some companies host their own nodes and provide you a link to access it, such as : https://www.quicknode.com or https://getblock.io/
Their nodes are faster than Public nodes, but you need to pay (not that much) for it.
3/5
Run your own node
If you have enough skills, the best is to host and run your own Private Node 💪
By doing that, you have a node accessible only by you. Degen Bots can be run on the same server, gibing you the best speed. You would need a very powerful server to do it (expect to pay more than 100$ / month).
5/5
Do I need a dedicated node?
With Degen Ape Bot, it depends. Public nodes have some pretty good results.
However, since the whole purpose of the Degen Sniper Bot is to be fast, a dedicated node is strongly advised. Public nodes are shared with too many users and won't give you results good enough.
