MaxRegistrationsPerBlock

Storage Map v101 → current

Maximum registrations allowed per block .

Queried by: minersvalidatorsdeveloperssubnet owners

The Big Picture

Only N registrations can happen per block. This prevents one entity from grabbing many slots in a single block and ensures fair distribution of registration opportunities.

Why This Matters

Registration failed? Might be rate limited. Only MaxRegistrationsPerBlock registrations per block. Check RegistrationsThisBlock to see if limit is reached.

Example Scenario

Query MaxRegistrationsPerBlock(netuid=1) returns 3. Only 3 registrations can happen per block on subnet 1. If 3 already happened, wait for next block.

Common Questions

Why limit registrations?: Fairness. Without limits, someone could script registrations to grab all slots instantly. The limit spreads opportunities over time.
What's a typical value?: Usually 1-3. Low enough to prevent spam, high enough to allow reasonable throughput.

Use Cases

Check rate limits before registration
Build registration retry logic
Understand registration fairness mechanisms
Design subnet rate limit parameters
Debug registration failures

Purpose & Usage

Purpose

Rate limit registrations - prevents spam and ensures fair access.

Common Query Patterns

Query by netuid
Plan registration timing
Understand rate limits

Code Examples

import { ApiPromise, WsProvider } from "@polkadot/api";
import { stringCamelCase } from "@polkadot/util";

const provider = new WsProvider("wss://entrypoint-finney.opentensor.ai:443");
const api = await ApiPromise.create({ provider });

// Query MaxRegistrationsPerBlock storage
const key1 = 0;

const result = await api.query
  [stringCamelCase("SubtensorModule")]
  [stringCamelCase("MaxRegistrationsPerBlock")](
  key1
);

console.log("MaxRegistrationsPerBlock:", result.toHuman());
