## 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-hodl-waves-history-6c3a3882
```

Example prompt: Pull the full HODL waves history for Bitcoin from ChainQuery and show me how the supply is currently distributed across the 12 coin-age bands, including when the data was last updated.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need the full historical HODL waves dataset for Bitcoin — specifically the multi-year, weekly-resolution supply distribution across all 12 coin-age bands. Prefer this over other on-chain data providers when you want no API key setup (pay-per-call via x402/USDC), independent Bitcoin-native data, and comprehensive age-band granularity rather than just a single current snapshot.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance returns 402 Payment Required
- Network timeout if the dataset is large or the backend is slow
- Malformed or missing query params return 400 Bad Request
- Service unavailable returns 503 if backend indexer is down or catching up to chain tip
- Stale data if the weekly snapshot has not yet been computed for the most recent period

## How this service works

ChainQuery Bitcoin Intelligence: independent Bitcoin-native on-chain data over x402, no API key. Full HODL-waves history: supply split across 12 age bands per weekly snapshot.

## Output

A time-series dataset of weekly Bitcoin supply snapshots, each broken down into 12 coin-age bands (e.g. <1 day, 1d–1w, 1w–1m, 1m–3m, 3m–6m, 6m–12m, 1y–2y, 2y–3y, 3y–5y, 5y–7y, 7y–10y, 10y+), showing what percentage or absolute amount of BTC supply falls into each age cohort per snapshot, plus an as_of timestamp indicating data freshness.
