Optimized Settings

In this chapter we'll explain how you can optimize NFT Butler for different task setups.
It's important to understand that Butler can run:
  • 5 token bidding tasks in parallel
  • and 3 tasks per wallet in parallel
Instant Counter Bidding Modes are equivalent to token bidding in regards throughput. Max. Token bidding tasks + your instant counter bidding mode must not exceed the above limits, otherwise Butler will run into 429 errors.

✅ Complete list of all valid configurations

Token Tasks
Instant Counter Bidding
CTOs
  • 5 Token Tasks
  • max. 3/wallet
  • deactivated
max. 100
  • 4 Token Tasks
  • max. 2/wallet
  • "normal" mode
  • same wallet to counterbid as used in the tasks
max. 100
  • 4 Token Tasks
  • max. 3/wallet
  • "normal" mode
  • dedicated wallet only for counterbidding
max. 100
  • 3 Token Tasks
  • max. 1/wallet
  • "competitive" mode (PRO)
  • same wallet to counterbid as used in the tasks
max. 100
  • 3 Token Tasks
  • max. 3/wallet
  • "competitive" mode (PRO)
  • dedicated wallet only for counterbidding
max. 100
  • 2 Token Tasks
  • max. 2/wallet
  • "hardcore" mode (PRO)
  • dedicated wallet only for counterbidding
max. 100
⛔ Example for a bad configuration:
  • max. 4 Token Tasks
  • max. 3 Token Tasks/wallet
  • same wallet to counterbid as used in the tasks
= ⚡ in this case we'd get throttled and get 429 errors because the same wallet would need to run more than 3 token task equivalents as soon as counterbids start being sent from the same wallet.

Settings Walk-Through

If you activate Instant Counter Bidding, you will automatically have less token tasks running in parallel.
Don't change this setting, keep it to 5 unless there is an announcement in the NFT Butler discord.
This one is important! Make sure you don't have never more than 3 here, and if you activate Instant Counter Bidding from the same wallet, you will need to lower this number according to the table above.
Can be set as low as possible: 1 - but it doesn't matter so much as long as you activate Instant Counter Bidding!
Normally you don't need to change this. If your using a valid token & counterbid configuration and still run into 429 errors, only then it's recommended to increase this number slightly.
Release note: Min bid duration per bid
  • There is a new setting where you can slow down the overall bidding speed of Butler in case you're hitting Rate Limits frequently these days
  • It's maybe worth to use a minimum duration per bid of 3 - 3.5 secs with the current OS Rate Limits
  • This will basically apply to all your tasks and the ICB engine
  • When using 3.5 secs each task will still process about 1000 bids / hour (overall 6000 bids / hour in Butler with all it's tasks)
  • After changing this setting you need to restart Butler in order to take effect
