## 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 degenscan-intel-funding-alerts-5c301cf8
```

Example prompt: Show me the top 10 coins with the most extreme perp funding rates on Hyperliquid right now — I want to see annualized %, which side is paying, and open interest for each, filtered to at least 0.05% hourly rate.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time, ranked funding rate extremes specifically on Hyperliquid with cross-venue comparison to Binance and Bybit. It is ideal for detecting crowded positioning, funding arbitrage setups, or automated monitoring workflows that poll every 5–15 minutes. Prefer this over generic market data feeds when the specific need is funding rate magnitude and paying-side identification rather than price or volume data.

## Known failure modes

- 402 Payment Required if x402 micropayment header is missing or insufficient
- No alerts returned if no coins exceed the min_abs_rate_1h threshold at query time
- Empty result set during low-volatility periods with compressed funding rates
- Rate limiting or timeout if polled more frequently than recommended 5-minute interval
- Stale data risk if Hyperliquid or venue feeds are temporarily unavailable

## How this service works

Cross-asset market event intelligence for AI trading agents. Priced routes return HTTP 402 with x402 v2 payment requirements (USDC on Base) unless X-API-KEY is sent or the free trial header X-Free-Trial: 1 is present (100 calls/day/IP). Information and analytics only — not investment advice.

## Output

A JSON object containing a count of matching alerts and an array of alert records, each with the token symbol, 1-hour funding rate, annualized funding percentage, the side currently paying (longs or shorts), and open interest in USD. Predicted funding per venue (Binance, Bybit, Hyperliquid) may also be included per record.
