## 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-info-explorer-gateway-bitcoin-cash-address-lookup-dd8ddc04 -d '<json body>'

Example prompt: Can you pull up the blockchain data for Bitcoin Cash address qq9n6qg69kqmkl9drhv7p8wn2x5xmrmg6sphx8lzp — I want to see the balance and recent transactions?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you specifically need Bitcoin Cash (BCH) address data from the authoritative Blockchain.info explorer. It is ideal for verifying BCH payments, auditing wallet activity, or fetching on-chain balances in a production agent pipeline that supports x402 micropayments. Prefer it over generic blockchain APIs when you need Blockchain.info's well-known BCH index data with a predictable per-call cost.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed BCH address returns an error response
- Address not found on the BCH blockchain returns empty or null data
- Network/gateway timeout if the blockchain node is slow to respond
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.001 per-call fee
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made in quick succession
