Example prompt

Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://obol-x402.fly.dev/v1/btc/anomaly/empty-block/latestWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you specifically need to detect whether the latest Bitcoin block is empty — a known anomaly indicating miners are skipping transactions. Prefer this over the general multi-anomaly detector when you only care about the empty block signal, want minimal payload, or are building a dedicated empty-block monitoring workflow. Useful for forensic agents, mining analysts, and on-chain watchdogs.
