🔧 Technical Details

Gas Limit Fix

The service was using a gas limit of 100000, which was insufficient. Transactions were using all 100000 gas and reverting. The fix:

• Increased default gas limit to 200000 in Python code
• Added GAS_LIMIT=200000 to .env file
• This provides sufficient gas for the updateAnswer function call

Gas Price Fix

Added minimum gas price to ensure transactions are not rejected:

gas_price = max(self.w3.eth.gas_price, 1000)  # Minimum 1000 wei

Transaction Signing Fix

Fixed web3.py v7.x compatibility:

tx_hash = self.w3.eth.send_raw_transaction(signed_txn.raw_transaction)  # snake_case
