Why Is Low Latency Essential for Successful Triangular Arbitrage Bots?

Triangular arbitrage opportunities are fleeting, often lasting only milliseconds, as other high-speed bots quickly exploit and close the price gap. Low latency ensures the arbitrage bot receives market data quickly and can submit the transaction to the blockchain rapidly.

Any delay increases the risk of the transaction failing or being front-run, leading to a loss of the gas fee paid.
