While testing on one of the PoS nodes, I used polycli loadtest for spamming transactions. However, after each block, the transactions were not sent with the updated gas prices. As you can see, the cachedBlockNumber is changing, but the cachedgasPrice and cachedGasTipCap are the same.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with polycli loadtest on a PoS node and trace how gas prices are updated between blocks. The issue is done when transactions use updated gasPrice and gasTipCap values after each block, rather than retaining the logged cached values.
