redundant-rpc-provider

Redundant RPC provider for metamasks eth provider engine

##What it does?

• For transaction sending it pushes your transaction to all RPCs but only waits for the first one to respond.
• For data-fetching calls it queries the random RPC and failovers to others if it's down

###API

            url_1,
            url_2,
            ...
            url_n
        ],
        RpcSubprovider
)
