Filters expire after 5 minutes of inactivity (no queries).

To ensure reliability, eth_newFilter limits the block range 10,000 blocks.

Parameters

- fromBlock: QUANTITY|TAG - (optional, default: "latest") Integer block number, or "latest" for the last mined block or "pending", "earliest" for not yet mined transactions.
- toBlock: QUANTITY|TAG - (optional, default: "latest") Integer block number, or "latest" for the last mined block or "pending", "earliest" for not yet mined transactions.

A note on specifying topic filters

Topics are order-dependent. A transaction with a log with topics [A, B] will be matched by the following topic filters:

[] "anything"
[A] "A in first position (and anything after)"
[null, B] "anything in first position AND B in second position (and anything after)"
[A, B] "A in first position AND B in second position (and anything after)"
[[A, B], [A, B]] "(A OR B) in first position AND (A OR B) in second position (and anything after)"
