```sh
zero fetch --capability deepsearch-crypto-news-api-b5501174
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest news articles for BTC from DeepSearch's crypto news feed?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need up-to-date news headlines and press coverage for a specific cryptocurrency token and want pay-per-query pricing (USDC on Base Mainnet) without a subscription commitment. Best for agents needing lightweight, on-demand crypto news enrichment rather than bulk historical financial data.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid symbol parameter returns a 400 error
- Unknown or unsupported crypto symbol may return an empty articles array
- Payment not completed (x402 protocol) results in a 402 Payment Required response
- Network or upstream service unavailable returns a 503 error
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded may return a 429 error

## How this service works

Up to 10 years of financials + 3 years of daily price history for all 2,000+ KRX stocks. Pay-per-query with USDC on Base Mainnet — no subscription.

## Output

A JSON object containing the queried symbol and an array of news articles, each with a title, press/publication name, and published date. For example: {symbol: 'BTC', articles: [{title: '...', press_name: 'CoinDesk', published_at: '2026-05-29'}]}.
