## 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 chainquery-bitcoin-getnettotals-rpc-f3a88a98
```

Example prompt: Can you check how much total network traffic — bytes sent and received — chainquery's Bitcoin full node has accumulated so far? Pull from the getnettotals RPC.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time or current cumulative Bitcoin node network bandwidth statistics (bytes in/out) from an independent, trustworthy full node without managing API keys. Ideal for monitoring Bitcoin network health, auditing node bandwidth, or building dashboards that track peer-to-peer data throughput. Prefer over self-hosted solutions when you want pay-per-call access with no subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not processed — 402 response if x402 payment header is missing or insufficient
- RPC node temporarily unavailable — 503 or timeout if chainquery's full node is syncing or offline
- Invalid params format — error if 'params' query string is not valid JSON-encoded array
- Rate limiting — if too many requests are sent in rapid succession

## How this service works

chainquery Bitcoin RPC: pay-per-call Bitcoin Core over x402, no API key. Cumulative network traffic totals, bytes in and out, from chainquery's independent full node. Bitcoin Core getnettotals.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with the getnettotals result from Bitcoin Core: total bytes received, total bytes sent, and the current time in milliseconds since the node started tracking. Typical response includes 'totalbytesrecv', 'totalbytessent', and 'timemillis' fields.
