# Crypto Market Pulse & Base USDC Stats – Text Case Utility

> Crypto Market Pulse & Base USDC Stats – Text Case Utility is a paid API for AI agents from baseusdcearn.pythonanywhere.com, paid per call via x402, $0.0005/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Returns live crypto market prices (BTC, ETH, SOL, USDC), Base mainnet chain stats, and USDC transfer analytics, paid per-call in USDC on Base via x402

## Facts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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-pulse-base-usdc-stats-text-case-utility-febd0b53
```

Example prompt: What are the current prices of Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and USDC right now, along with the 24-hour change, and what does the Base mainnet look like — block height and gas price?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a single pay-per-call, no-signup source for combined crypto market prices (BTC/ETH/SOL/USDC from OKX) alongside Base mainnet chain stats and real-time USDC on-chain analytics. Ideal for AI agents that want micropayment-native access (x402/USDC on Base) without API keys or subscriptions, and for DeFi dashboards or market analysis pipelines that need all these signals in one call.

## Known failure modes

- HTTP 402 returned if x402 payment challenge is not satisfied — agent must pay in USDC on Base and retry with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header
- Invalid or missing properties parameter may return an error or empty response
- Stale market data if upstream OKX feed is delayed or unavailable
- Base RPC node downtime may cause chain snapshot fields to be missing or outdated
- Malformed wallet address input returns error for balance/nonce lookups

## How this service works

Pay-per-call API for AI agents, settled in USDC on Base mainnet (eip155:8453) via the x402 protocol - no API keys, no signup, no subscription. Live crypto market data: BTC, ETH, SOL, USDC (USD Coin) prices with 24h change (source: OKX), Base mainnet chain snapshot (block height, gas price gwei), real-time USDC-on-Base transfer analytics (transfer count, volume, unique senders and recipients over recent blocks), and USDC/ETH wallet balances plus nonce for any address. Agent utility tools: deterministic JSON repair for LLM output (strip code fences, fix trailing commas, single quotes, unquoted keys, balance braces), DNS A/AAAA lookup, and URL extraction from arbitrary text. Every endpoint returns HTTP 402 with an x402 payment challenge in USDC on Base; pay with any wallet and retry with the PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header. MCP server at /mcp (streamable HTTP, 6 pay-per-call tools). Ideal for crypto portfolios, DeFi dashboards, market analysis agents, data pipelines, and LLM post-processing.

## Output

A JSON object containing: market prices and 24h change for BTC, ETH, SOL, and USDC (sourced from OKX); Base mainnet snapshot with current block height and gas price in gwei; USDC transfer analytics over recent blocks (count, volume, unique senders/recipients); optionally wallet USDC/ETH balances and nonce for a given address; and a servedAt timestamp.
