Hi there, it’s Daniel again!
I hope you were wondering what a new story I’d bring to you. Today, we’ll discover how to make your transactions hit the bull’s eye every time. I talk about Transaction Simulator.
Popular saying teaches us that the danger foreseen is half avoided, so in blockchain, it sounds like:
“I want to save tons of gas by predicting the outcome of any TX before it gets executed.”
Simulation of transactions leads to modeling the state of the future block according to multiple conditions variations. And the end goal is to find the one the only combination of TXs and their features to generate the maximum profit.
Simulating—without tortures of consciences
My colleagues and I have developed our version of Transaction Simulator, and here is what it can do:
Edit any smart contract parameters and simulate a transaction to view the outcome.
The Multicall feature helps simulate any number of transactions at once.
The Block Override mechanism simulates any number of TXs at once for any block at any moment (softly ignoring limitations).
Send new or edited transactions faster with exact changes in parameters to get the expected results immediately (Well, hello, another MEV opportunity!).
Reveal and fix bugs for all valuable TX.
Analyze the mempool to spend gas optimally.
All these features we collected from our customers and added to the TX Simulator Features Bingo, look below:
The additional ways our customers use TX Simulator

Side problems that get solved by the solution’s design

All in all, a project gets the ability to simulate and utilize any possible transactions faster than competitors.
Implementing of the Transaction Simulator: Roadmap to follow
No matter what type of blockchain infrastructure you have now or want to have, it’s possible to implement the TX simulator. And it takes no longer than implementing any other feature.
To empower with such a game changer, the roadmap became as follows:

In the end, the simulation might take up to 1-2 milliseconds, it’ fast as light. The latency problem is solved in the core.
The philosophy behind the TX Simulator
This solution stands for optimizing actions people are doing via the blockchain while pushing the limits of the system to its technical limitations. If we could make the response time faster than the light, we’d make it. The TX Simulator is not the way to trick the network, but the way to become a wiser and more cautious player in the game of blockchain. At least, that’s how we see our clients using this tool.
How would you use TX Simulator on your project?
Thank you for taking the time to read Web3 Talks. In the next email, we'll learn about the delights of Mempool. Keep an eye out!
Best regards, Daniel
