## 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-crypto-spot-prices-coingecko-44403549
```

Example prompt: What are the current USD spot prices for bitcoin, ethereum, and solana right now? I need live CoinGecko prices for all three.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time USD spot prices for one or more CoinGecko-listed crypto assets in a single call, especially within an agentic workflow that already uses x402 micropayments. Prefer this over rolling your own CoinGecko integration when you want a pre-wrapped, pay-per-call API that supports multiple assets simultaneously at low cost.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unknown CoinGecko IDs return empty price object or error
- Missing 'ids' query parameter results in empty or error response
- CoinGecko upstream rate limiting or outage causes failure
- Malformed comma-separated IDs may be silently ignored
- Payment failure (insufficient x402 balance) blocks the request
