## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time English-language access to Russian financial Telegram news (MarketTwits specifically), especially for macro, oil/commodities, central bank, geopolitics, or crypto signals. Ideal for trading bots or news agents that need keyword-filtered, importance-tagged financial alerts sourced from Russian-language media that would otherwise require manual translation and monitoring.

## Known failure modes

- Empty results (count: 0) when no posts match the keyword within the time window — try broader keywords or longer hours
- Query too short or missing (minLength:1 required) returns validation error
- Hours parameter out of range (must be 1-168) returns validation error
- Service unavailable if the underlying render.com deployment is cold-started or down
- Payment failure if USDC balance insufficient or x402 protocol misconfigured
