## 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 api-web3identity-com-acddaebb
```

Example prompt: What's Bitcoin trading at right now, and how much has it moved in the last 24 hours — include the volume too?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a real-time, single-asset Bitcoin price snapshot with 24h change and volume data. It is purpose-built for BTC and returns structured market data ideal for agents monitoring crypto prices, building dashboards, or making decisions based on current BTC market conditions. Prefer this over generic token price endpoints when BTC-specific ticker data with volume is the primary need.

## Known failure modes

- Upstream price feed unavailable — may return stale or error response
- Rate limiting if called excessively without payment
- Payment failure if x402 USDC balance is insufficient
- Malformed response if market data provider is temporarily down
