## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to analyze the average size of individual on-chain transfers flowing into crypto exchange addresses — useful for detecting shifts in whale vs. retail behavior on exchanges. Prefer this over total volume metrics when the per-transfer mean size (not aggregate) matters for your analysis.

- Invalid asset symbol returns no data or error
- Unsupported currency or interval enum value rejected
- Payment not processed results in 402 Payment Required
