## 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 basewhale-oracle-x402-756c6f59
```

Example prompt: Show me the top 20 whale transactions on Base mainnet right now, only include transfers worth at least $50,000.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, pay-per-call access to large-transfer whale data specifically on Base Mainnet (Chain ID 8453) without committing to a subscription. It is ideal for agents that need on-demand whale activity snapshots, want to filter by a custom USD threshold, or are building micro-payment-enabled workflows using the x402 payment protocol.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or x402 payment header missing — returns 402 Payment Required
- Invalid input types (e.g. non-integer limit) — returns 400 Bad Request
- No transactions meet the min_usd threshold — returns empty transactions array with whale_count of 0
- Base node unavailability or RPC outage — may return 503 or timeout
- Rate limiting if too many requests in short succession
