GET
/network/difficulty-adjustment

/network/difficulty-adjustment has rate limitation:

Initially, the API allows for a burst of 20 requests, and afterward, it gradually restores 1 request every 15 seconds until reaching the maximum allowable limit of 20. This limitation is imposed to manage and control the rate at which requests can be made to the API, preventing potential misuse or excessive use of resources.
