I think that you are being limited somehow by that electrum API, it only let you 6 tries?
I think that it should give you a more detailed error of why it fail.

looks like none of your TX were accepted.

the sendrawtransaction RPC errors are something tricky sometimes they told you the required fee to replace the transaction but sometimes in satoshis and sometimes BTC/KvB

We need to parse that error and determine exactly how much fee increase in our TX

Also when the 429 Too Many Requests< error need to be handle correctly, like add some waiting time between requests


It's better to use different ips (like a pool of ip or proxy) to send such requests.

I don't see anything detailed here. I will have to install the bot directly on
 the Bitcoin Node machine and use Electrs
https://github.com/romanz/electrs/blob/master/doc/usage.md

So, full-node OS and tweaking directly on it? This is getting more and more complex to keep track of. Undecided
Are you going to make a tutorial for n00bs?   Grin
