Limits and fair use

The pool is shared. These limits keep it from being drained by one account or resold.

Limits

LimitDefaultWhy
Discounted keys per wallet1Stops splitting one holding across many keys
Rate limit per key60 requests / minuteProtects upstream capacity
Daily subsidy per walletscales with tierSpreads the pool across holders
Daily subsidy per keysame as walletCaps exposure if a key leaks

Core and Singularity tiers get higher rate limits.

When you hit a limit

  • Rate limit: 429 rate_limited with a retry-after header.
  • Daily subsidy cap: requests continue at list price for the rest of the day. Nothing is blocked.

Not allowed

  • Reselling discounted access, directly or through a wrapper API.
  • Splitting holdings across wallets to multiply discounted keys.
  • Anything the upstream provider's usage policy forbids. Their terms apply to requests routed to them.

Accounts that break these rules lose their discount, and keys can be revoked.
