# MERX TRON RPC Gateway

> MERX TRON RPC Gateway is a paid API for AI agents from merx.exchange, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Proxies TRON blockchain RPC method calls, enabling AI agents to interact with the TRON network including sending/receiving USDT, monitoring wallets, and querying real-time blockchain data.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 merx-tron-rpc-gateway-c1a820ba -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Check the USDT balance of TRON wallet TRX9z4jqVb2JMkFoAn8sW3n5M using the getAccount RPC method, then send 50 USDT to TQn5xu1bJq4oVHm using MERX's TRON RPC — it handles energy automatically so I don't need to worry about bandwidth.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to interact with the TRON blockchain — especially for USDT transfers, wallet monitoring, or real-time blockchain state — without managing TRX energy manually. It is particularly useful when operating within the Coinbase x402 payment ecosystem, as it is the first TRON facilitator in that registry. Prefer over raw TRON nodes when automatic energy handling and sub-3-second wallet detection are required.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid RPC method name returns method-not-found error
- Malformed TRON address causes parameter validation failure
- Insufficient energy or bandwidth on TRON network causes transaction rejection
- Network congestion may delay transaction broadcast confirmation
- Payment of $0.01 USDC per call fails if x402 wallet is underfunded
- Unknown method parameter types return parsing errors from TRON node

## How this service works

TRON payment infrastructure for AI agents. Send and receive USDT with automatic energy, monitor wallets with less than 3s detection, access real-time blockchain data. TRON x402 facilitator (first in coinbase/x402 ecosystem registry).

## Output

Returns the raw TRON blockchain RPC response for the requested method — could include account balances, transaction receipts, block data, broadcast results, or contract state depending on the method called. Energy management is handled automatically so agents receive clean results without needing to provision TRX for fees.
