## 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 thebotwire-crypto-blockchain-news-feed-2bd56fc5
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest crypto news from CoinDesk and Cointelegraph from the past 2 hours — up to 20 articles — and flag anything related to Ethereum.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need up-to-date crypto, blockchain, or web3 news specifically from CoinDesk, Cointelegraph, or the Ethereum Foundation. It is ideal for trading agents monitoring market sentiment, web3 agents tracking protocol developments, or any workflow requiring freshness-controlled crypto news with optional keyword search. Prefer it over general news endpoints when you need crypto-native sourcing with per-source filtering.

## Known failure modes

- No articles found for the given query or freshness window — returns empty results list
- Invalid 'since' format (e.g. '2days' instead of '2d') may return an error or be ignored
- Source filter value not in enum (coindesk, cointelegraph, ethereum) results in a validation error
- Limit exceeding 50 is rejected; below 1 is also invalid
- Upstream source temporarily unavailable may result in partial or empty results
- Payment failure (x402) prevents access to the endpoint
