## 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 carbon-cashmere-dex-pools-endpoint-0e4f49b5
```

Example prompt: What DEX pools are available for BTC right now, and what price is it trading at across them — especially on Solana? I want to see liquidity sizes and which pools are considered trusted.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time on-chain DEX pool data for a specific cryptocurrency, including liquidity depth, per-pool prices, and trust classification across chains like Solana. Prefer this over centralized exchange price feeds when you need decentralized market data or want to assess DEX-specific liquidity.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown coin symbol returns empty pool list or 404
- No pools above minimum liquidity threshold returns empty pools array
- Chain filter yields no matching pools
- API payment not processed (x402 payment required failure)
- Upstream DEX data unavailable causes stale or missing price data
