# adctx Trace — Address Money-Flow Analyzer

> adctx Trace — Address Money-Flow Analyzer is a paid API for AI agents from t.adctx.com, paid per call via x402, $0.1/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-17).

Given any Base blockchain address, returns a breakdown of its USDC inflows by distinct payer, how many of those payers the address itself funded, the net USDC balance after removing self-funded returns, and stats on funded wallets that sent back the exact amount they received.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability adctx-trace-address-money-flow-analyzer-72bc1b8f
```

Example prompt: Check where 0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef12345678's USDC income actually came from over the last 48 hours — specifically how much of it is just its own money coming back through wallets it funded, and what the real net revenue looks like.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to assess the authenticity of a Base address's USDC income — specifically to detect circular or wash payment patterns where a wallet funds its own payers and receives money back. Ideal for vetting x402 sellers, auditing on-chain revenue claims, or fraud-screening wallets before transacting. Prefer this over generic blockchain explorers when you specifically need funded-payer decomposition and net-real-revenue calculation rather than raw transaction history.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed address (not a valid 0x Base address) returns an error
- Window parameter exceeding 168 hours is rejected
- Address with no on-chain activity in the window may return zero counts
- Network or chain tip latency may cause slightly stale reads
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC payment is not completed before request

## How this service works

Where did this address's money come from, and would it have arrived if the address had not sent it first? Give any Base address, get a live read: distinct payers, how many of them this address funded inside the window, the USDC left once those are removed, and how many funded wallets sent back the exact amount they were given, and how fast. One seller in our weekly reading took in 339.20 USDC, and 338.70 of it was its own money coming back.

## Output

Returns a structured breakdown including: count of distinct payers, count of payers the queried address itself funded within the window, total USDC received, USDC remaining after removing flows from self-funded wallets (net real revenue), count of funded wallets that returned the exact amount they were given, and timing/speed statistics for those exact-amount returns. Enables detection of circular/wash payment patterns.
