🚄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 :

Type of Node	Node Explained	Speed
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.
