# DeFi Protocol TVL Movers

> DeFi Protocol TVL Movers is a paid API for AI agents from cycle-angela-lamp-hamburg.trycloudflare.com, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status down (last checked 2026-09-15).

Returns the top 40 DeFi protocols ranked by absolute 24h and 7-day TVL change, enabling capital rotation detection across chains and categories.

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 defi-protocol-tvl-movers-333d3b80
```

Example prompt: Show me which DeFi protocols are moving the most capital right now — I want to see the top TVL movers ranked by their 24-hour and 7-day percent changes, including their chain and category.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to identify which DeFi protocols are experiencing the largest TVL flows over 24h or 7d periods, especially for capital rotation analysis, trend detection, or protocol momentum screening. Prefer this over chain-level TVL endpoints when you need protocol-granularity rather than chain-aggregated data.

## Known failure modes

- Upstream DeFi data source unavailable — may return stale or empty movers array
- Payment not provided or invalid — HTTP 402 response requiring x402 payment
- Network timeout from Cloudflare tunnel — transient 5xx error
- Data freshness lag — generated_at may be minutes old if source data pipeline is delayed

## How this service works

DeFi protocol TVL changes: protocols ranked by 24h and 7d TVL change, chain, category, current TVL USD. JSON array. Capital rotation detection across DeFi protocols.

## Output

A JSON object with a 'movers' array of up to 40 DeFi protocol objects, each containing the protocol name, blockchain chain, current TVL in USD, category, 1-day percent change, and 7-day percent change. Also includes a 'generated_at' Unix timestamp indicating when the data was built.
