Check buy/sell tax rates on Tron tokens via x402 micropayment
What it does
This endpoint, operated by Erudite Intelligence LLC, performs a token tax check on the Tron blockchain. You POST a JSON body containing a token address (or symbol), pay per-call via the x402 protocol, and receive tax-related data for that token. The endpoint accepts payment in USDC on Base (eip155:8453) or USDT on Tron (tron:728126428), each costing 0.01 USD per request (10,000 base units with 6 decimals).
The x402 challenge is live and returns a version-2 payment requirement. The Bazaar schema embedded in the challenge specifies a POST with a JSON body containing a single field "token" (a string representing the token address or symbol). The response is JSON with a "success" boolean and a "data" object, though the exact structure of the data object is not documented beyond an empty example. This makes it difficult to know precisely what fields are returned (e.g., buy tax percentage, sell tax percentage, transfer tax, etc.).
The provider, EruditePay, operates an x402 payment facilitator bridge supporting 20 blockchains and is registered as a FinCEN MSB (BSA ID 31000324258137). The facilitator is non-custodial and settlements route directly. Documentation at docs.eruditepay.com is referenced on the landing page but the /docs path on the bridge itself returns a 404, so detailed API documentation for this specific endpoint is unavailable.

Quality
The endpoint is live (402 challenge captured) with a clear payment schema and basic input/output structure, but the response data object is only shown as empty in the example. No detailed documentation is available for the actual fields returned, and the docs link leads to a 404. Pricing and payment options are clear.
Warnings
- —Response schema is undocumented — the example shows an empty 'data' object with no field definitions
- —docs.eruditepay.com is referenced but /docs on the bridge returns 404; no detailed API docs found
- —Exact fields returned (buy tax, sell tax, etc.) are inferred from the endpoint name, not confirmed by documentation
