## 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 agent-signals-crypto-funding-rate-signal-x402-bbbe9ef7
```

Example prompt: What's the current funding rate situation for BTC — are longs crowded, and what's the annualized rate across Binance, OKX, and Bybit?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI trading agent needs real-time perpetual futures funding rate intelligence across multiple venues for a specific crypto asset, particularly to assess crowded positioning risk (long-squeeze or short-squeeze) before entering or exiting a trade. Prefer this over generic market data APIs when you need cross-venue dispersion analysis and a pre-computed bias interpretation rather than raw tick data.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid 'symbol' query parameter returns an error
- Payment not settled via x402 returns HTTP 402 Payment Required
- Unknown or unsupported asset symbol may return empty or error response
- Network/upstream venue data unavailability may cause stale or partial results

## How this service works

Pay-per-call crypto market-intelligence API for autonomous AI trading agents. Funding-rate, BTC lead-lag and trend/chop regime signals, settled in USDC over x402.

## Output

A JSON object containing: per-venue funding rates (OKX, Bybit, Binance), average 8-hour funding rate, annualized funding rate percentage, cross-venue dispersion, a market bias label (e.g. 'crowded_long'), and a plain-English interpretation of long-squeeze or short-squeeze risk.
