Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Moralis

  • The free plan is metered daily at 40,000 compute units rather than monthly, so a quiet week cannot offset a busy day
  • API throughput is 40 requests per second on both the free and the $49 Starter plan, so paying does not raise the rate limit at the first tier
  • Doubling throughput to 80 requests per second requires the $199 Pro plan
  • Every published price assumes annual billing

Trust Wallet

  • No premium or paid tiers
  • Self-custody limits support availability
