# Tanod Web – Crypto News Feed

> Tanod Web – Crypto News Feed is a paid API for AI agents from web.tanod.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-13).

## 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 tanod-web-crypto-news-feed-a4f99fec -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the top 10 crypto news stories from the last few hours that mention Ethereum, and tell me if the overall sentiment is positive or negative.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need aggregated, deduplicated crypto news from multiple major outlets in a single call, especially when you need built-in sentiment scoring and cursor-based incremental polling so a scheduled agent only pays for new stories. Prefer over generic web search when you specifically want curated crypto journalism sources (Cointelegraph, CoinDesk, The Block, Decrypt, The Defiant, Bitcoin Magazine, CryptoSlate) rather than arbitrary web results.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid 'since' value (not ISO 8601 or valid cursor) returns a 422 validation error
- 'limit' outside 1-50 range returns a 400 error
- 'topic' with no matching stories returns an empty stories array with count=0
- Payment failure (x402 protocol) returns a 402 response before any content is delivered
- Service may return stale data if upstream RSS feeds are temporarily unavailable

## How this service works

Web tools: search, page to Markdown or screenshot, company profile and jobs, sitemaps, RDAP, IP.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with: a list of grouped story objects (headline, rank, tone label and score, outlets, individual source URLs with titles and publication times, first_seen timestamp), an overall tone summary across all returned stories (VADER-based sentiment, compound score, method description), pagination cursor for incremental polling, count of stories returned, the as_of timestamp, matching window in hours, and total stories matched. Stories are deduplicated across outlets.
