## 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-transfers-count-metric-5fe8b1c2
```

Example prompt: Pull the Glassnode transfers count for BTC on the Ethereum network at daily (24h) resolution and give me the most recent data points in JSON format.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need raw time-series counts of on-chain transfers for a specific crypto asset and want to analyze network activity, adoption trends, or on-chain transaction volume. Prefer this over fee or address metrics when the specific focus is the quantity of transfer events rather than their cost or participant count.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required asset symbol 'a' parameter returns a 400 error
- Unsupported asset symbol returns an error or empty dataset
- Invalid time interval value not in enum (24h, 1w, 1month) causes a 400 error
- Invalid network identifier not in enum causes a 400 error
- Payment not completed or insufficient USDC balance returns 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting or upstream Glassnode API outage returns 5xx error

## How this service works

Number of Transfers — The total number of transfers. Data by Glassnode.

## Output

Returns a time-series array of objects, each containing a Unix timestamp ('t') and the total number of on-chain transfers ('v') for the specified asset, interval, and network.
