## 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-news-headlines-feed-179599ba -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest crypto news headlines right now — I want to understand what narratives or catalysts are driving market moves today, especially anything that might explain why funding shifted without a major macro print.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need qualitative, narrative context to explain why crypto markets moved — especially when no macro event (CPI, Fed, etc.) is visible and you suspect a crypto-native catalyst like a protocol exploit, exchange news, regulatory headline, or influencer narrative. Prefer this over price/funding endpoints when the question is 'why' rather than 'what price' or 'what rate'. Best paired with funding rate or price endpoints to correlate narrative with quantitative signals.

## Known failure modes

- No recent headlines available for the requested timeframe
- Service timeout if upstream news sources are unavailable
- Empty response if no significant crypto news in recent window
- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.04 per-call fee
- Malformed request body returns validation error

## How this service works

Recent crypto headlines for narrative context and catalysts — the qualitative layer that explains why funding moved when no macro print did. Returns headlines with attribution for summarisation, not article text.

## Output

A list of recent crypto news headlines, each with source attribution, covering qualitative catalysts and market narratives. Headlines are returned for summarization purposes without full article text, providing the 'why' behind crypto market movements.
