# Blockscout NFT Token Instance Holders

> Blockscout NFT Token Instance Holders is a paid API for AI agents from api.blockscout.com, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-10).

Returns the list of addresses holding a specific NFT token instance (by token ID) for a given contract on a specified blockchain network

## 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 blockscout-nft-token-instance-holders-a64886d5
```

Example prompt: Using Blockscout, show me all the addresses holding token ID 42 of the NFT contract 0xBC4CA0EdA7647A8aB7C2061c2E118A18a936f13D on Ethereum (chain ID 1).

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to identify all holders of a specific NFT token instance (by token ID) on a particular chain — especially when you need rich metadata per holder (ENS name, reputation, tags, proxy info). Prefer this over generic token holder endpoints when the token is an NFT (ERC-721 or ERC-1155) and you need instance-level granularity rather than balance-level data across all holders of a fungible token.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid chain_id returns 404 or error — must use a supported Blockscout chain identifier
- Invalid or non-existent token contract address returns empty result or 404
- Non-existent token_id_param returns empty items array
- Fungible token contract address used instead of NFT contract may return unexpected results
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402 Payment Required
- Pagination cursor mismatch may return duplicate or skipped results

## Output

A paginated list of holder records, each containing the holder's address hash, optional name, ENS domain, reputation score, proxy type, public/private tags, watchlist names, contract verification status, scam flag, and the specific token ID held. Also includes next_page_params for pagination.
