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 pocket-network-shannon-validator-rankings-api-c1f8bba2
```

Example prompt: Show me the top 15 Pocket Network Shannon validators ranked by bonded POKT, including whether any are jailed and what commission they charge.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, on-chain Pocket Network Shannon validator data ranked by stake, especially with commission and jailed-status details in a single call. Prefer it over generic blockchain explorers when you need structured JSON output ready for agent consumption, and when you need x402/USDC micropayment settlement per call rather than API key subscriptions.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not included or invalid USDC x402 header — returns 402 Payment Required
- Limit parameter outside 1-25 range — may return validation error or default to 10
- Pocket Network RPC node temporarily unavailable — returns 503 or timeout
- Invalid query parameter type (non-numeric limit) — returns 400 Bad Request
- Network congestion on Shannon mainnet causing stale or delayed validator data

## How this service works

Real-device, multi-region site verification with screenshot proof, live Pocket Network Shannon relay-demand/tokenomics/validator-security data, and on-chain RPC snapshots across 38 chains -- Ethereum, Solana, BSC, and peaq natively, plus 34 more EVM chains via Pocket Network's free public gateway (Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, Polygon, Avalanche, zkSync, Linea, Scroll, Gnosis, and more) -- 54 metered x402 routes, priced and settled per call in USDC. Migrating to Acurast decentralized cloud compute for censorship-resistant hosting -- stay tuned.

## Output

A JSON object containing the network name ('pocket-shannon'), the ranking field used ('bondedTokens'), an array of top validators each with moniker, jailed status, bonded POKT amount, and commission rate percentage, plus aggregate stats: total bonded POKT across all validators and the count of actively bonded validators.
