# Anti bot

Bots can be disruptive and challenging to counteract. Creators can opt to enable anti-bot features that can be active for <mark style="color:orange;">**up to 5 minutes**</mark> after the token's launch. This option is exclusively available to <mark style="color:blue;">**VIP users**</mark> on the platform.

If a creator decides to implement anti-bot measures, they must specify a Duration and select at least one anti-bot feature.

## Features

* **Duration:**\
  Creators can set the anti-bot effect duration for 1-5 minutes after launch.
* **Maximum Supply Release:**\
  Control the release of a certain percentage of the token supply during the set duration.
* **Maximum Wallet %:**\
  Transactions will revert if they exceed the specified limit. If not configured, the token will default to the general [<mark style="color:green;">**maximum wallet %**</mark> ](https://docs.ape.express/factory/types-of-tokens/basic-token#optional-features)set for the token.
* **Maximum Transaction %:**\
  Transactions will revert if they exceed the specified limit. If not configured, the token will default to the [<mark style="color:green;">**maximum transaction %**</mark>](https://docs.ape.express/factory/types-of-tokens/basic-token#optional-features) set for the token.
