## 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 diamond-bitcoin-market-pulse-7a7fc7ef
```

Example prompt: Give me a live Bitcoin network pulse — current block height, how long since the last block, today's whale volume, AML case count, and the current next-block fee rate.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a fast, free-of-account, pay-per-call Bitcoin network pulse combining chain health, AML activity level, whale flows, and fee estimates in a single call. Prefer it over dedicated fee estimators or blockchain explorers when you want a holistic on-chain risk and activity snapshot in one request for under $0.02.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or invalid x402 payment header — returns 402 Payment Required
- Service temporarily unavailable — returns 5xx error
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded — returns 429
- Stale data if Bitcoin node is behind — last_block_age_min may be elevated

## How this service works

Bitcoin address risk checks (sanctions, ransomware, laundering patterns), address watch alerts, a live market pulse and a daily whale report. Pay per call with Lightning or USDC - no account.

## Output

A JSON object containing: Bitcoin chain height and minutes since the last block, count of AML cases scoring 40+ in the past 24 hours, total USD value and count of whale transactions in the past 24 hours, and current fee rates in sat/vB for next-block and 1-day average.
