DelegateTxRateLimitExceeded
Error Re-added v151 → v212, v216 → v219, v233 → v315, v320 → current 7.33You're modifying delegate settings too frequently.
Why This Error Exists
Take rate changes are rate-limited to prevent manipulation. Without this, validators could advertise low takes to attract delegators, then immediately raise them. The cooldown gives delegators time to react to changes and unstake if they disagree with new terms.
Deep Dive
TxDelegateTakeRateLimit is measured in blocks (typically thousands of blocks, or roughly 1-2 days). After calling increase_take or decrease_take, you must wait this many blocks before the next take change. This applies per-hotkey - each hotkey has its own cooldown timer tracked by LastTxBlock.
Debugging Example
You call increase_take at block 100,000. Rate limit is 7,200 blocks (~24 hours). You try decrease_take at block 105,000. Error: DelegateTxRateLimitExceeded. Current block (105,000) - last tx (100,000) = 5,000 blocks. Need 7,200 blocks. Wait until block 107,200 to change take again.
Prevention Tips
- Plan take changes in advance - you cannot rapidly adjust
- Track your last take change block
- Consider this cooldown when setting initial take rate
From Chain Metadata
A transactor exceeded the rate limit for delegate transaction.
What This Means
You're modifying delegate settings too frequently.
Common Causes
- Called increase_take or decrease_take too soon
- Rate limit applies per-hotkey
How to Fix
- Wait for the rate limit period to pass
- Check the rate limit constant for timing
