Positions answer for the live chain, not yesterday
Orion answers from the network as it stands now rather than from where recorded history left off. A position read reflects the chain within seconds of a ledger closing.
- Every response reports
ledger_lag_seconds— the time since the served ledger’s recorded close time,nullwhen that close time wasn’t recorded — alongside the last indexed ledger, so how current an answer is, is something you can read rather than assume.
