## 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-risk-intelligence-brief-766f4f1f
```

Example prompt: Give me Diamond's current Bitcoin risk brief — I want to know today's AML case count, the overall risk level, and any notable whale activity.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a fast, no-account, pay-per-call snapshot of overall Bitcoin network risk and AML activity — ideal for compliance dashboards, morning briefings, or lightweight monitoring where you don't need a full address-level investigation. Prefer this over full address-check endpoints when the goal is situational awareness of macro-level Bitcoin risk rather than vetting a specific address.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient — returns 402 Payment Required with payment instructions
- Network or worker outage — returns 5xx with no body
- Stale data if underlying intelligence feeds are delayed — risk_level may lag real-time conditions
- Malformed request parameters — returns 400 with error detail

## 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 an array of plain-English summary lines describing current AML case volume, dominant laundering patterns (e.g. peel chains), and an overall risk_level string such as 'elevated', 'normal', or 'critical' reflecting the current state of the Bitcoin network.
