etc... fought to the very end.

Thx for the exercise though.

Is it possible to limit maximum fee somehow? Any ideas?
Also, where to view all mempool RBF timeline? mempool.space definitely not shows all.

Did you scroll the RBF timeline on mempool.space? It shows the TX has been replaced 51 times.

Two of those were mine. But looking at the timeline, it seems that the owner of the address 158tuQVCj6DTPxBawCFQcpiVVs5qkmieLY was replacing its own TX many times in a row, which is a hint of a bad coded bot.

@kTimesG

Can you please share your bot script? Thanks
