```

Example prompt: What has the crypto Fear & Greed Index looked like over the last 60 days? Give me the average, trend, max, min, and a breakdown of how many days were in each sentiment zone.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured historical crypto Fear & Greed Index data with pre-computed statistics (average, max, min, trend, zone distribution) and a full daily series — especially when you want to avoid calling Alternative.me directly and need the data packaged with zone labels and aggregated analytics ready for downstream use.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid 'dias' value outside 2–2000 range may return an error or default behavior
- Missing required body fields may result in a 400 bad request
- Service may be temporarily unavailable if upstream Alternative.me data feed is down
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance returns a 402 or payment error
