Maybe you can help me out. I just tried to log into the web wallet with my "dev account". The old ones that you needed to get an API key. I got the error:
which I did.
On the dashboard there is the option
Wallets ->
New Bitcoin Wallet. It requests an Wallet Identifier and a Wallet Password (twice). All fine, until I hit "
Create Wallet"
Any idea what thats about?
"developer accounts are limited to 432,000 API requests per 24 hours, at a rate of 300 request per minute.
When you reach the rate limit you will get an error response with the 429 status code.
We will send you a notification when you're getting close to the rate limit, so you can upgrade in time or contact us to request an extension."
IS it true that you offer such amount of API requests for free? And there will be no issue like with blockchain who blocks API IP address after small portion of API requests exceeded?
Also when create wallet get an error: Expected Buffer, got String "f986ea8598b3a41d72905f9c2190a59577f576a10bd424a8b846375f8e750bae6a6c27d56cf780c ec2c865f529df48c6e85d0136faface1dad70f262d1e3b60c"
Cancel
The issue with the "Expected Buffer" has been resolved, sorry about this, side effect of some updates for the consumer webwallet ...
As for the rate limits, those numbers are true (otherwise we wouldn't say they were) and atm our system can only manually ban IPs, and that's only really for abuse (ie someone who's obviously rotating multiple API keys to get past the limit), so hitting the (free) rate limits is not a problem at all except that you'll have to wait before you can get the data you want.
Also, if the limits are really a problem then feel free to contact us to discuss an upgrade (could even be free depending on the situation).
Though they really shouldn't be with 100k transactions/day on the whole bitcoin network 400k requests should be enough for you to completely sync the whole blockchain xD.
