# Glassnode Spent Output Lifespan < 1h (SOL_1H) Metric

> Glassnode Spent Output Lifespan < 1h (SOL_1H) Metric is a paid API for AI agents from x402.glassnode.com, paid per call via x402, $0.05/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Returns the total number of spent Bitcoin outputs that were created within the last hour (short-lived UTXOs indicator).

## 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 glassnode-spent-output-lifespan-1h-sol-1h-metric-369be486
```

Example prompt: Pull the Glassnode spent output lifespan under 1 hour indicator for BTC in JSON format — I want to see how many Bitcoin outputs created within the last hour have already been spent.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need on-chain Bitcoin UTXO lifespan data specifically for outputs spent within 1 hour of creation, as a proxy for short-term speculative activity or coin flipping behavior. Prefer this over longer-horizon lifespan metrics (e.g., 1d, 1w) when analyzing intraday trading patterns or very short-term holder behavior. Best suited for blockchain analysts, quant researchers, or agents building dashboards around Bitcoin on-chain activity.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'a' query parameter (asset symbol) returns a 400 error
- Unsupported asset symbol beyond BTC enum returns a 400 validation error
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC balance causes a 402 Payment Required response
- Invalid format or interval enum values return validation errors
- Service unavailability or Glassnode data pipeline issues may return 5xx errors

## How this service works

Spent Output Lifespan < 1h — The total number of spent outputs that were created within the last hour. Data by Glassnode.

## Output

Returns a time-series array of objects, each containing a Unix timestamp ('t') and a numeric value ('v') representing the total count of spent Bitcoin outputs whose creation age was less than 1 hour at the time of spending.
