How to avoid using a loop query to get the result for a transaction?

Question

I am trying to wait for the receipt as long as my transaction is valid.

At the moment, I use the TransactionReceiptQuery method in a loop, and after each 'failing' query I wait 2 seconds before retrying.

Is there a better way to wait for the receipt as long as the transaction is valid (without using a loop)? And do I need a timeout? Is there a request limit on how often I can execute that query?

At the moment, I'm using a loop to query for the result. If the query fails, I wait two seconds before trying again.

It's a good idea to share your code before people can helpfully suggest solutions. — Anonymoose, Mar 02 '23 at 15:21

The SDK already queries in a loop, it increases the delay between each query (2s, 4s, 8s...) until it times out (~ 2 minutes).

In the event of a timeout, you'll get a TRANSACTION_EXPIRED error.
