## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time cryptocurrency prices denominated in one or more fiat currencies and want to pay only per-call with no subscription. It is ideal for AI agents that need live crypto data on-demand, especially when using CoinGecko coin IDs and the x402/USDC payment protocol. Prefer it over subscription-based data feeds for sporadic or low-frequency lookups.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized CoinGecko coin ID returns an error or omits that coin from results
- Invalid fiat currency code may return an error or empty value
- Payment failure via x402 (insufficient USDC balance or rejected payment) returns a 402 Payment Required response
- Network or upstream CoinGecko API unavailability may cause a 503 or timeout
- Missing required parameters (ids or vs) may return a 400 Bad Request

## How this service works

Pay-per-call data services for AI agents: web extraction (text, Markdown, metadata), PDF-to-text, RSS/Atom parsing, FX and crypto prices, weather, DNS and email validation. All paid endpoints use the x402 payment protocol (USDC).

## Output

A JSON response mapping each requested CoinGecko coin ID to its current price(s) in the specified fiat currency or currencies, reflecting live market data at the time of the call.
