Balances cache worker

[vikiival]

One idea for speed-loading balances on KodaDot app is to cache it on the worker in some KV storage.
Where <SS58(42), Balances>

Once user hits the endpoint it should refetch the balance from various RPC nodes.

@vikiival new worker to be built for this or extend existing one? I could use some pointers on how to implement this

@vikiival new worker to be built for this or extend existing one?

New one, if it was an extension of existing one, it would be labeled with the name of the worker

I could use some pointers on how to implement this

Can you please elaborate?

Answered for now if it's a new worker 👍

@vikiival I just tried implementing this. At first, I thought the balances api could be called from the worker but I see cloudflare doesn't support wasm code generation needed by the polkadot api.
If the balance should come from the frontend, how long is the ideal time to cache balances?
