## 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 crypto-market-overview-30fd2391
```

Example prompt: Give me a full snapshot of the global crypto market right now — total market cap, 24h trading volume, how much the market cap has changed in the last 24 hours, and Bitcoin and Ethereum dominance percentages.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need whole-market crypto context rather than data on a specific coin. It is ideal for market briefings, framing individual coin moves against broader market trends, monitoring BTC/ETH dominance shifts, or building dashboards that require a single-call global snapshot. Prefer this over coin-specific endpoints when the user's question is about the market as a whole rather than any individual asset.

## Known failure modes

- CoinGecko upstream outage may return 5xx error or stale data
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance) returns 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting may result in 429 responses during high-demand periods
- Network timeout if upstream CoinGecko API is slow to respond

## How this service works

Global crypto market snapshot in one call: total market cap, 24h trading volume, 24h market-cap % change, BTC/ETH dominance, and active-coin/market counts -- the whole-market context behind any single coin's move. Not ticker-specific. From CoinGecko. $0.005/call.

## Output

Returns a structured JSON object with global crypto market metrics: total market capitalization, 24-hour trading volume, 24-hour market cap percentage change, Bitcoin dominance percentage, Ethereum dominance percentage, and counts of active coins and trading markets — all sourced from CoinGecko.
