## 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 vendsdk-base-network-eth-usdc-balance-lookup-19ae1e90
```

Example prompt: What are the current ETH and USDC balances for wallet address 0x1234abcd...5678 on Base mainnet?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need live ETH and USDC balances specifically on the Base (Coinbase L2) mainnet in a single call. Prefer it over generic blockchain explorers when you need both ETH and USDC in one fast, agent-friendly response without API key setup. Ideal for pre-flight checks before payments, treasury monitoring, and verifying agent wallet funding on Base.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed 0x address returns an error response
- Address with zero balance returns eth: '0' and usdc: '0' with ok: true
- Network or RPC downtime may cause transient failures
- Non-Base-network addresses return data for the Base equivalent address (no cross-chain resolution)

## How this service works

Live Base mainnet ETH and USDC balances for an address — treasury and agent wallet checks

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a boolean 'ok' field, 'eth' balance as a string, 'usdc' balance as a string, 'chain' identifier (Base mainnet), and 'service' and 'source' metadata fields. Balances reflect live on-chain state at query time.
