How this service works
OpenAI-compatible AI and data API for agents. Pay per call in USDC on Base via x402 — no API keys, no subscriptions, no lock-in.
Output
Returns the on-chain balance of the specified wallet address on the Base network, typically including the USDC amount and/or native ETH balance, expressed as a numeric value with token denomination.
Example use cases
Pre-payment funds verification
“Before I send that x402 payment, check whether wallet 0xAbc123...def has enough USDC balance on Base to cover it.”
Agent treasury monitoring
“Tell me the current USDC balance on Base for my agent's wallet 0xDeadBeef...1234 so I know if I need to top it up.”
User onboarding balance check
“My user just connected their wallet 0x9F8e...7c2a — can you check what their Base network balance looks like before we proceed?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.cortexcloud.org/x402/v1/data/base/balanceWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a quick, pay-per-call on-chain balance lookup on the Base network without setting up API keys or subscriptions. Ideal for AI agents that need to verify wallet balances before executing payments or workflows, especially those already operating within the x402 micropayment ecosystem on Base.
Side effects
- Invalid or malformed wallet address returns an error
- Address with zero transaction history may return zero balance rather than an error
- Network congestion or RPC issues may cause timeouts
- Payment of 0.001 USDC required per call — insufficient funds in calling wallet causes payment failure
- Unsupported token type or network mismatch returns an error
