as far as i know: Aptos API has rate limits for public (unauthenticated) access. Limit: 5,000 requests per 5 minutes per IP (without API key). If you exceed this, you get temporarily blocked with a “Too Many Requests” error. Likely causes: your app is sending too many requests, or you share IP with others doing the same. Try this: Reduce request rate or add delays between calls (e.g., 1–2 seconds). Use exponential backoff on retry (1s, 2s, 4s, 8s...). Get an Aptos API key for higher limits and better stability. PS: These are just ideas, I'm not completely sure either. I am not official aptos dev. Just a user |
