name: Litecoin Core REST Interface Rate Limits
description: The Litecoin Core unauthenticated REST interface has no built-in rate
  limiting. It is intended for controlled local or private network use. Operators
  exposing it publicly should place a reverse proxy (e.g., nginx) in front to enforce
  rate limits, as the interface provides no authentication or throttling of its own.
rateLimits:
  - name: No Published Limit
    description: No hard rate limit is enforced by the software. All inbound HTTP
      requests are served as fast as node I/O allows.
    type: node-resource
    limit: null
    window: null
notes:
  - The REST interface is unauthenticated by design; do not expose it to untrusted
    networks without a protective proxy.
  - Large responses (full blocks in JSON format) can be resource-intensive; consider
    using the /notxdetails/ block variant to reduce payload size.
