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

```sh
zero fetch --capability basebuilder-crypto-exchange-rates-c32e7e07 -d '<json body>'
```

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time or near-real-time cryptocurrency exchange rates via a paid, x402-compatible API that accepts USDC micropayments. Suitable for agents operating on Base or other EVM chains that need programmatic crypto price lookups without managing a full exchange API key subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported trading pair returns an error
- Network or upstream exchange data unavailable
- Payment not processed results in 402 response
