## 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 halowerk-marktwerk-open-interest-9f17931b -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What's the open interest for BTC/USDT on Binance futures right now, and how has it changed over the last 4 hours?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need open interest data specifically for Binance USDⓈ-M perpetual futures with windowed comparison (1h, 4h, 24h). Prefer it for lightweight, pay-per-call access to derivatives market metrics without managing a Binance API key or WebSocket connection. Best suited for agents making infrequent or triggered lookups rather than continuous streaming.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid symbol format not matching BASE/QUOTE pattern returns validation error
- Unsupported venue (only binance-futures is currently available)
- Symbol not listed on Binance USDⓈ-M Futures returns not-found or empty result
- Payment failure via x402/USDC causes 402 response and no data
- Network timeout from upstream Binance data source
