## 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 blockchain-com-explorer-gateway-daily-transaction-count-chart-41d98845 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the daily Bitcoin transaction count chart from Blockchain.com for the past year with an 8-hour rolling average applied and include metadata in the response.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, time-series transaction-count data specifically for Bitcoin from Blockchain.com's explorer, especially when you want configurable timespans (24h to 3y), rolling average smoothing, and optional metadata — and when you are comfortable paying a small per-call USDC micropayment via the x402 protocol.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid timespan format returns a 400 error
- Unsupported chart format enum value causes a validation error
- Payment not provided or insufficient USDC causes a 402 Payment Required response
- Network timeouts if the blockchain data source is temporarily unavailable
- Empty values array if no transaction data exists for the requested period
