## 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 coingecko-historical-mcp-233d5530 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What was the price, market cap, and trading volume of Ethereum on January 15, 2024? Pull the historical CoinGecko data for that date in USD.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured historical cryptocurrency market data (prices, volumes, market caps) for specific past dates and want MCP-compatible access with per-call micropayment pricing via x402. Prefer it over scraping or free-tier APIs when you need reliable, paid access without API key management.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or misspelled coin ID returns an error or empty result
- Dates outside CoinGecko's historical coverage window may return no data
- Malformed query string in the data field may result in a processing error
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) blocks the request
- Rate limiting or timeout if CoinGecko upstream is slow
