gm, these are new examples for sendtx and sendbatchtx for WS — they are in the docs as well:

WS SendTx: https://github.com/elliottech/lighter-python/blob/main/examples/ws_send_tx.py
WS SendBatchTx: https://github.com/elliottech/lighter-python/blob/main/examples/ws_send_batch_tx.py

gm, some updates

1 - The /api/v1/publicPools endpoint will be removed on Monday, Aug 25th at 9PM UTC

For static pool information, use /api/v1/publicPoolsMetadata instead:

# Get basic pool catalog with current APY
GET /api/v1/publicPoolsMetadata?limit=50

For account-specific pool data:

# Get your pool shares and basic pool info
GET /api/v1/account?by=index&value=123
# Returns: pool_info and public_pool_shares for that account

For real-time pool updates via WebSocket, use streams/pool_info and streams/account_all_positions.

2 - Send Batch Tx via WS now available: https://apibetadocs.lighter.xyz/docs/websocket-reference#send-batch-tx

We are seeing limit orders are getting rejected given the order margin changes we've made. If there is any assistance needed, please let us know.
