Example prompt: What cryptocurrencies are trending on CoinGecko right now? I want to see which coins are getting the most search attention today.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a real-time snapshot of which cryptocurrencies are trending by search volume and community interest, without needing to specify a particular coin. It is ideal for market pulse checks, newsletter curation, or surfacing emerging tokens before they spike. Prefer this over price-history or market-cap endpoints when the goal is discovering what is capturing trader attention right now rather than analyzing a known asset.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure on Base chain preventing endpoint access
- Stale data if CoinGecko caching layer has not refreshed
- Generic 402 Payment Required if USDC balance is insufficient
