## 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 kiteendpoints-ai-crypto-news-api-6161f50f -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest cryptocurrency news headlines for me right now — I want to see what's happening across Bitcoin, Ethereum, and the broader crypto market today?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need quick, pay-per-request access to crypto news without committing to a subscription, or when building an agent that needs on-demand news lookups paid in USDC on Base chain. Useful for lightweight integrations where you want aggregated crypto headlines without managing API keys for multiple news providers.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or USDC balance insufficient — 402 response
- Upstream news source unavailable — may return empty or stale data
- Schema mismatch if input is malformed — generic error response
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made in a short window
