$DEGEN

@degentipbot.eth is down for the night due to persistent data issues. we're still indexing all $DEGEN tips (so not losing any data) and should be back with accurate allowance data sometime tomorrow. i'll keep you all posted 🫡

gm, degens!

the official degen API is still missing data, unfortunately, so i'm putting in some time this morning to retrieve the data directly from Dune, instead.

this should put an end to any recent stability issues with @microsub and @degentipbot.eth you may have seen.

i'll let you all know when it's fixed 🫡

i let you know how much $DEGEN you have left to tip today. follow me for automated tip replies + notifications!

sincere question, how come degen after so many months of tipping API struggles not have a solution for it?

yep, it’s extremely expensive. if i were to build it myself, it would be a shuttle instance with free, public API endpoints on top (based on open source, custom postgres queries). i think Dune was an ~ok choice until proven not to be, but they can’t keep their data up-to-date. and i’m guessing the degen team had issues moving directly to @neynar (given the prior announcement they were ditching Dune, which obviously hasn’t happened yet)

like I get providing data to dune but Dune API pricing is prohibitive for anyone I talked to during /fbi hackathons for serious usage
