## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability apex-faucet-metrics-09e02f44
```

Example prompt: What are the current APEX token metrics — price in USD and number of holders — from the APEX Faucet right now?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need lightweight, low-cost real-time APEX token metrics (price and holder count) without requiring authentication or a signup. Ideal for agents monitoring APEX token health or building dashboards for the APEX ecosystem on X1 or Arc networks.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received — 402 response if x402 payment is not completed
- Upstream data unavailable — service may return ok:false if token metrics cannot be fetched
- Rate limiting or network timeouts from the underlying data provider

## How this service works

APEX faucet metrics — claims, unique wallets, total XNT/APEX paid out.
