name: Litecoin Space REST API Rate Limits
description: The Litecoin Space public REST API does not publish hard rate limits.
  As a free community service, unofficial throttling may be applied to prevent abuse.
  High-volume applications should self-host an ltcspace instance.

      load may be throttled or blocked at the infrastructure level without notice.

notes:
  - For production workloads with high request volumes, deploy a self-hosted ltcspace

  - No API key is required; no account registration is needed.
