the problem:
when the url is down, the library waits just about forever for the response that's doomed to fail. i highly suspect this is the cause of all the "currency not ready" issues here. it could literarily be like a minute.
the fix:
wait only 5 seconds instead. (this is just a random number i came up with. feel free to change it to something else that suits your need better.)
detailed explanation of why this is a good thing to do
