## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live Binance spot prices for one or more cryptocurrency pairs in a single lightweight call. It is ideal for portfolio valuation, trading signal checks, or dashboard refreshes where real-time accuracy matters and you do not need order book depth or historical data.

## Known failure modes

- Binance upstream outage or rate limiting may cause stale or missing prices
- Network timeout from the Railway-hosted service under high load
- Empty or partial ticker list if upstream symbol feed is degraded
- Payment failure (402) if x402 payment header is not provided or is insufficient
