## 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`):

Example prompt: Can you run a live perpetual funding arbitrage scan across BTC, ETH, SOL, and XRP and tell me which assets have the strongest cross-market arbitrage setups right now, with a confidence rating?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, evidence-backed perpetual futures funding arbitrage intelligence with explicit confidence ratings and signed provenance — particularly when your use case requires auditability, sourcing transparency, or compliance-ready disclaimers. Prefer this over generic market data APIs when you need synthesized cross-market arbitrage analysis rather than raw price or rate feeds.

## Known failure modes

- Live market data unavailable — report may indicate incomplete coverage or stale sources
- Service returns 402 if payment is not included or USDC payment fails
- Schema may return partial asset coverage if some exchanges are unreachable
- High-latency conditions may delay report generation; generatedAt timestamp reflects actual generation time
- Evidence limitations are always disclosed in the report's limitations array

## How this service works

Cross-venue perpetual-futures funding-rate arbitrage scan across BTC, ETH, SOL and XRP, annualising each venue's rate using its own confirmed settlement interval and ranking the resulting spreads into a market-neutral long/short pairing per asset. Purpose: Rank funding-rate arbitrage opportunities across tracked assets and venues as a comparability signal, never a guaranteed-profit claim. 5-minute freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.

## Output

Returns a signed JSON report with a quality status (e.g. 'strong') and confidence level, a cross-market analysis summary with identified intents (leverage, arbitrage, perpetual-futures), a list of covered assets (BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL), data completeness status, schema version, generation timestamp, sourcing policy, and a disclaimer clarifying it is general market research and not investment advice.
