## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability mekong-trade-intel-token-price-api-caeeed1c
```

Example prompt: What's the current price, market cap, and 24h volume for PEPE on Ethereum right now?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time DEX token prices, market cap, volume, or liquidity for any crypto token including memecoins and long-tail DEX tokens — especially when no API key or account setup is desired. Prefer over centralized exchange APIs when the token trades primarily on DEXs (Uniswap, Raydium, PancakeSwap, etc.) and is not listed on major CEXs. Better than the sibling 'live market data' endpoint for specific individual token lookups vs. a whole-board snapshot.

## Known failure modes

- Token ticker not found or ambiguous — multiple tokens share the same ticker across chains
- Invalid or unrecognized contract address format — returns error for malformed 0x or base58 addresses
- Unsupported chain specified — only the listed chains are valid
- Token has no DexScreener data — very new or illiquid tokens may return empty results
- Payment failure — x402 USDC payment on Base must succeed before data is returned
