This is a replacement for PR nucypher/nucypher#3412
The general idea of this issue, is to query 3rd party APIs (like etherscan, polygonscan, etc.) to improve the efficiency, robustness and success rate of transaction retry strategies.
This issue can be closed by a PR that integrates a configurable mechanism that works with popular gas/price oracles, documented usage examples ("cookbook" style), or by decision that such functionality is too domain-specific.
