## 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-total-transaction-fees-volume-sum-81c39c03
```

Example prompt: Pull the total transaction fees paid on Bitcoin for the last 24 hours from Glassnode, denominated in USD, and give me the JSON result.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need the aggregate sum of all transaction fees paid on a blockchain network (not per-transaction averages), especially for on-chain miner revenue analysis, fee market research, or macro blockchain health monitoring across BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, BNB, DOGE, TRX, or TON.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'a' (asset) parameter returns a 400 error
- Unsupported asset or interval enum value causes a 422 validation error
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC causes a 402 Payment Required response
- Network parameter not compatible with selected asset may return empty results or error
- Rate limiting or service unavailability returns 429 or 503
