FieldValue
URLhttps://faucet.abtnetwork.io/
ComponentFaucet Claim Process (specifically "PLAY" and "PLAY2" tokens)
Error MessageFail Too many request, please come back later
User RoleAll Users

2. Description

2.1. Summary

The ABT Network Faucet fails to dispense the "PLAY" and "PLAY2" tokens due to an immediate rate limiting error. When attempting to claim, the system returns the message: Fail Too many request, please come back later. This occurs even on the first attempt, suggesting an overly aggressive, incorrectly configured, or persistently triggered rate limit on the server side that is blocking legitimate user claims.

2.2. Reproduction Steps

  1. Navigate to the ABT Network Faucet at https://faucet.abtnetwork.io/.
  2. Attempt to request the "PLAY" token (or "PLAY2" token).
  3. Click the claim button/link.
  4. Observe the result: The claim fails immediately, and the red error notification appears with the message: Fail Too many request, please come back later.

2.3. Proof of Concept (PoC)

(The resulting error is immediate and persistent.)

Error Message Displayed: Fail Too many request, please come back later 

3. Expected Behavior

The Faucet should allow a successful claim for "PLAY" and "PLAY2" tokens, respecting known rate limits (e.g., once per day per user). It should not immediately fail claims with a rate limit error, especially on the first attempt or after a reasonable cooldown period.

This is expected behavior. For security reasons, request frequency is limited — please wait a moment before trying again
