Throttled requets even with API key

See original GitHub issue

Hey, first of all, thanks for this SDK and API that we are using to build a custom NFT store! I’m having some problems using the API key, I’m getting the throttle message with API key on rinkeby and mainnet, we can make like 7 requests before throttled, and then pretty long throttle interval. We are using the /asset/ to get information about every NFT that we are listing so we can display custom info.

Is this the expected behavior? Is there any way to this differently?

I there any way to find out about API limits for a certain API key?

After contacting OpenSea, they confirmed this is the normal behavior and we made a proxy around it.

For the back-end part we use our key to cache requests and redistribute them to clients, and for front-end only stuff we use no api key so each user has its own throttle limits
