Investigating

Safe head is currently trailing the unsafe head on Base Mainnet. We're working to optimize batching performance to restore normal progression.

For time-sensitive operations, we recommend:
* Use higher fees for time-sensitive transactions
* Ensure retry logic is in place

We’ll continue to post updates as we progress toward a resolution.
