  "account": "The Arkham API can be challenging to work with due to various operational concerns, such as modelling response payloads, handling deadlines, managing pagination, dealing with rate limits, and maintaining real-time connections. These concerns often lead to fragile helpers and repeated boilerplate code in projects. arkham-go is a production-ready Go SDK for the Arkham Intel API, designed to remove this friction by providing a structured foundation for applications that use on-chain intelligence. It covers the REST surface and WebSocket v2 transfer streams, offering Go teams a consistent approach to handling authentication, rate limits, credit pricing, pagination, and data modeling across addresses, entities, labels, and tags. By making these concerns part of the client contract, arkham-go ensures that Go code receives predictable, typed primitives for retrieving and managing data. This approach helps developers focus on business logic rather than wrestling with HTTP plumbing.",
  "summary": "Working with on-chain intelligence is rarely difficult because of a single HTTP request. The hard part is everything that surrounds the request: modelling response payloads, handling deadlines, preserving decimal values, applying pagination correctly, reacting to rate limits, keeping an eye on API-credit consumption, and maintaining a separate real-time connection when the product needs live…",
