## 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 gloom-perps-rankings-api-4ed46410
```

Example prompt: Show me the current rankings of perpetual futures contracts across decentralized exchanges sorted by positive funding rate — I want to see which perps on venues like Hyperliquid are ranked highest right now.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need ranked perpetual futures data across decentralized venues with funding-rate-based ordering. Ideal for DeFi trading agents that need to identify top funding opportunities on DEXes like Hyperliquid without building their own data aggregation pipeline. Prefer over manual on-chain queries when you need pre-ranked, multi-venue perp data in a single call.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported properties filter returns empty or error response
- API unavailable returns HTTP 402 or 5xx if payment fails
- Empty data array if no perp markets match criteria
- Rate limiting if payment not processed correctly via x402 protocol
