Example prompt: What tokens and pools are trending the most on Base right now — show me the hottest ones by momentum with price, 24h volume, and how much they've moved?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time momentum-ranked token and pool discovery on a specific blockchain — especially for trading signal generation, sniper bots, or market briefings. Prefer this over general market cap endpoints when you want what's moving NOW rather than what's largest. It covers 8 chains including Solana, making it useful for both EVM and non-EVM chain monitoring. It's lighter and faster than full DeFi protocol TVL lookups when you only need trending surface-level data.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported chain value returns an error or empty result
- Missing ?chain parameter may return a default or error response
- Chain with low activity may return sparse or empty trending list
- Rate limiting or payment failure (x402) blocks the request
- Stale data if upstream DEX data feeds lag

## Output

Returns a list of trending tokens and/or liquidity pools on the specified chain, each with: token name, current price, 24-hour trading volume, 24-hour price change percentage, and liquidity depth. Results are ranked by momentum/hotness. Covers up to 8 chains including Solana.
