Developer Notes & Rate Limits

PLX’s API has adaptive rate limits based on developer tier and staking. By staking $PLX, developers unlock higher call limits and faster websocket throughput.

Tier	Stake (PLX)	REST Limit	WebSocket Limit	SLA
Free	0	500 req/min	10 msg/sec	Standard
Pro	1,000	1,000 req/min	25 msg/sec	Priority
Elite	10,000	2,500 req/min	50 msg/sec	Guaranteed <200ms latency

All responses include x-request-id for debugging and timestamp validation to verify signature freshness. Requests exceeding 60 seconds in inactivity are dropped to prevent API overload during high-volume rebalance windows.
