## 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 manylives-crypto-historical-price-data-0c03c1b1
```

Example prompt: What was the price of BTC and ETH on January 1, 2026? Pull historical price data for both coins for that date.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need historical USD price data for specific cryptocurrencies on a particular past date, especially when building or validating trading strategies, backtesting, or enriching on-chain analytics. It supports both standard tickers (BTC, ETH) and chain:address formats, making it suitable for long-tail DeFi tokens. It is pay-per-call with no account required, making it ideal for sporadic or agent-driven lookups without subscription overhead.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'coins' or 'date' parameter returns a 400 error
- Invalid date format (not YYYY-MM-DD or Unix seconds) causes a parse error
- Unknown or unsupported ticker symbol may return empty prices array or error
- Payment not provided or insufficient USDC triggers a 402 Payment Required response
- Date in the future may return no data or an error
- Network or service downtime may result in a 5xx error
