Real-time BCH token price via x402 micropayment on Base for $0.02 per request.
What it does
This endpoint returns the current price of Bitcoin Cash (BCH) as a pay-per-call API secured by the x402 protocol. It is part of a broader suite of APIs offered by lowpaymentfee.com covering data analytics, AI/ML inference, finance, crypto, and utility services — all priced at $0.02 per request with no API keys, no rate limits, and no commitments required.
Payment is settled on the Base network using USDC (contract 0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913). The x402 challenge confirms the endpoint is live and accepts POST requests. The maximum amount required per call is 20,000 base units of USDC (6 decimals), which equals $0.02. The payment recipient address is 0x1A2B13E97f5F837C8F9FA1F95a1484B7C70d85F3, and the payment scheme is "exact" with a timeout of 300 seconds.
Documentation on the site is minimal — the docs, API, pricing, and README pages all render only a "Connect wallet" prompt with no further technical detail. There is no OpenAPI spec, no example request/response, and no description of the response schema beyond the MIME type application/json. The endpoint is confirmed live via the 402 challenge, but the actual response payload structure must be inferred from the endpoint path (likely a JSON object containing a BCH price).

Quality
The endpoint is confirmed live via a valid x402 402 challenge with clear pricing ($0.02 USDC on Base). However, there is no OpenAPI spec, no documented request/response schema, no example payloads, and the docs/pricing/README pages are all empty beyond a wallet connect prompt. The listing is functional but minimally documented.
Warnings
- —No OpenAPI or schema documentation available — response format is unknown beyond application/json
- —Docs, pricing, API, and README pages all render only 'Connect wallet' with no technical content
- —No example request or response bodies are available; the actual fields returned are unverified
- —The broader site lists many endpoints across diverse categories (AI, analytics, finance, utils) all at $0.02 — quality and reliability of each is unverifiable
