## 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 httpay-token-price-coingecko-ad19316c -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What is the current price of ETH right now, including its 24-hour change and market cap?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, pay-per-call USD price lookup for a crypto token without managing a CoinGecko API key. Ideal for agents that need spot prices plus 24h change, market cap, and volume in a single call at very low cost ($0.005 USDC). Prefer over alternatives when operating in a x402/USDC micropayment context or when avoiding subscription-based API key management.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or unsupported token symbol (e.g. NOTAREALCOIN) may return an error or empty result
- CoinGecko upstream unavailability may cause stale or failed responses
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) blocks the request before it reaches CoinGecko
- Malformed symbol input may return a 400 bad request

## How this service works
