For uneducatable reasons really beyond my understanding, our users keep copying external image URLs from existing posts and paste them into new posts.
If we rotate the proxy keys, those images (and links if we did use the link proxy) would needlessly become invalid.
I therefore suggest to "unproxy" links posted by users, eg. if a user posts a valid image link

https://<forumurl>/proxy.php?image=<targeturl>&hash=<hash>
, it should silently be converted to just <targeturl>
behind the scenes so only this does get saved.
