simulateBundle
Last updated:
`simulateBundle` simulates the execution of an **ordered bundle** of Solana transactions exactly as they would run if landed back-to-back in a single block, and returns the per-transaction outcome — without submitting anything to the network. Use it to validate an MEV / atomic-arbitrage bundle (or any sequence of dependent transactions) before paying to send it with the bundle-submission methods.
Because the transactions are simulated **in order against the same working state**, later transactions in the bundle observe the account changes produced by earlier ones. This is the key difference from calling `simulateTransaction` on each transaction independently: a bundle that only succeeds atomically (for example, a swap that funds a later repay) can be validated as a whole.
This is a **pro-tier-only** method. It is rate-limited under the `sol_sim_bundle` category at 5 RPS (pro) / 15 RPS (business), with burst headroom of twice the sustained limit.
