## 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 explorer-gateway-api-bitcoin-cash-transaction-lookup-448b0298 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the Bitcoin Cash transaction with ID b6f6991d03df0e2e04dafffcd6bc418aac66049e2cd74b80f14ac86db1e3f0da and tell me its confirmation status, amount, and block details?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need Bitcoin Cash (BCH) transaction data from blockchain.info's explorer. Prefer this over generic block explorer scraping when you need structured JSON output and reliable micropayment-gated access. Choose sibling endpoints for Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Solana transaction lookups.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed txId returns an error response
- Transaction not found on the Bitcoin Cash chain returns 404 or empty result
- Network timeout or gateway unavailability returns 5xx error
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC micropayment is not fulfilled
- Passing a non-BCH transaction ID (e.g. a Bitcoin or Ethereum txid) may return not-found
