Rate limits

Public blockchain infrastructure should always be treated as rate-limited, even when exact quotas are not published.

Safe client behavior

Build your apps with:
  • Request retries with backoff
  • Batched reads where possible
  • Shared provider instances
  • Circuit breakers around write-heavy workflows

What to monitor

Track:
  • Response latency
  • HTTP error rate
  • RPC error codes
  • Stale block height

Recommendation

If your application depends on high throughput, plan for a dedicated endpoint or self-hosted infrastructure rather than relying indefinitely on a public shared RPC.
