How this service works
Crypto news feed, $0.0008 USDC per call: deduplicated headlines from 37 public sources (CoinDesk, Cointelegraph, The Block, Decrypt, DL News, Blockworks, Ethereum/Solana/Base blogs, Uniswap/Aave/Arbitrum/Optimism forums, GitHub releases of geth, reth, agave, Bitcoin Core). Each item: title, source url, source, published_at, topics, tickers, summary. Filters: topics, tickers, q, type. since cursor returns only new items. Refreshed every ~9 min. Free: /v1/preview (latest 5) and /v1/count?since= (how many new items before you pay). Accepts otto crypto-news style no-arg GET. By orbit-builder.
Output
A JSON object containing a list of news items (each with id, title, url, source, source_type, published_at, seen_at, topics, tickers, tags, summary), plus metadata about feed freshness (updated_at, sources_ok, items_indexed, staleness_sec), query echo, total count, has_more flag, and a next_since cursor for incremental polling.
Example use cases
DeFi security incident monitoring
“Check for any new security-related crypto news since 30 minutes ago — I want headlines, summaries, and which tokens are affected so I can assess if any of my portfolio positions are at risk.”
Protocol release tracking
“Fetch the latest release notes for Ethereum clients like geth and reth from the crypto news feed — filter by the 'releases' topic and show me titles, summaries, and links.”
Token-specific news briefing
“Get me all crypto news mentioning ETH or SOL from the last 2 hours, with summaries, so I can put together a quick market briefing.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://crypto-news.orbit-builder.workers.dev/crypto-news?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a broad, deduplicated crypto news feed aggregated from 37 reputable sources without building your own scraper. It is ideal for polling-based monitoring (using the since cursor), filtering by topic or ticker, or tracking protocol GitHub releases alongside editorial news. Prefer it over single-source RSS feeds when coverage breadth matters, or when you need structured per-article metadata (tickers, topics, summaries) ready for downstream analysis.
Side effects
- Payment not provided or insufficient USDC — 402 Payment Required response
- Invalid filter parameters — may return empty result set with no error
- since cursor too far in the past — may return large payload or truncated results
- Temporary source outage — sources_ok count may be less than 37, freshness may degrade
- Rate limiting — repeated rapid calls may be throttled
