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 edge-agents-ai-perpetual-funding-rates-b830a481
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest perpetual funding rates for BTC, ETH, XRP, and SOL — I want to see the current rates, whether they're elevated or normal, and how confident the data source is.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, evidence-backed perpetual funding rate intelligence with explicit quality confidence scoring and signed provenance — particularly when building compliance-aware agents, trading decision workflows, or market monitoring systems that require auditability. Prefer over raw exchange APIs when you want pre-analyzed, multi-asset aggregation with disclaimers and source attestation baked in.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or invalid x402 payment header — endpoint returns 402 Payment Required
- Data temporarily unavailable for one or more assets — coverage gaps stated in the report body
- Stale or incomplete source data — quality.status may reflect degraded confidence
- Network or upstream exchange outage — dataStatus field may indicate incomplete coverage

## How this service works

Live perpetual-futures funding rates for BTC, ETH, SOL and XRP across Binance, Bybit and OKX, with each venue's next settlement time, reported per-venue without cross-period normalisation. Purpose: Give market-neutral and basis-trade agents a fresh, multi-venue funding-rate reading without polling three exchanges and reconciling three schemas. 5-minute freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.

## Output

A signed JSON report containing: current perpetual funding rates for major assets (BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL), a quality status (e.g. 'strong') and confidence level (e.g. 'high'), a cross-market family classification, inferred intents (leverage, perpetual-futures), a plain-language summary, data policy (live), schema version, generation timestamp, limitations disclosures, and a provenance object with issuer URL and signature flag. The response explicitly disclaims investment advice.
