## 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 latam-datos-api-crypto-fx-cripto-fx-aa74984b
```

Example prompt: What is the current price of Bitcoin in Colombian pesos? Use the CoinGecko ID 'bitcoin' and currency code 'COP'.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need cryptocurrency prices specifically denominated in Latin American or other emerging-market local currencies (COP, BRL, MXN, ARS, CLP, PEN, etc.) rather than USD or major fiat currencies. It is ideal for agents serving LatAm users who need local-currency crypto valuations and supports pay-per-call micropayment via x402/USDC, making it suitable for low-volume or on-demand agent queries without subscription overhead.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid CoinGecko ID returns an error or empty result
- Unsupported local currency ISO code returns an error
- Rate limiting or upstream CoinGecko unavailability causes failure
- Payment (x402 USDC) not provided or insufficient causes 402 rejection
- Network timeout from Render.com hosting environment
