## 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 social-trending-crypto-tickers-3cbf686e
```

Example prompt: Show me the top 20 crypto tickers heating up across Farcaster and crypto news right now — I want attention scores, velocity, and which channels are driving each one.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a clean, pre-aggregated social attention signal for crypto tickers that fuses multiple ToS-safe sources (Farcaster, crypto news, GDELT) without needing to build your own aggregation pipeline. It is ideal over raw feeds when you want ranked, velocity-weighted results with sentiment rather than raw mention counts, and when Twitter/Reddit data is not required or permitted.

## Known failure modes

- No tickers returned if there is insufficient recent social activity
- Rate limit or payment failure (x402) if USDC payment is not provided or insufficient
- Invalid limit value (outside 1–40 range) returns a validation error
- Service unavailability during Farcaster or GDELT data ingestion downtime

## How this service works

What crypto tickers are heating up across crypto social right now: a ranked cross-source attention index fusing Farcaster cashtag mentions across curated crypto channels (keyless open-protocol hub) with crypto-news mention counts and a GDELT macro coverage-trend. Each row carries an attention score, a recent-vs-prior velocity, the channels driving it and cast sentiment — signal, not a raw feed. ToS-clean (no Twitter/Reddit).

## Output

A ranked list of crypto ticker symbols, each with an attention score (cross-source fused index), a velocity metric (recent vs prior period), the Farcaster channels driving mentions, cast sentiment signal, and crypto-news mention counts. Results are ordered by descending attention, limited to the requested count (default 15, max 40).
