Research direction

Start in src/index.ts around line 814, where getConflictingBundle uses fetchBlocksApi, and trace how the provider's target network is represented. Reproduce the conflicting-bundle lookup against Goerli and compare its endpoint with the submitted bundle's network. Done means the lookup no longer relies on a fixed network endpoint and works for bundles submitted elsewhere.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

It looks like getConflictingBundle uses fetchBlocksApi that has a hardcoded API endpoint (see https://github.com/flashbots/ethers-provider-flashbots-bundle/blob/master/src/index.ts#L814).

I think this means it does not work for bundles submitted to another network, e.g., Goerli.
