TRX token price lookup via x402 micropayment on Base (USDC) or Tron (USDT)
What it does
This endpoint provides crypto price data for TRX (and potentially other tokens) through an x402-gated POST request. Operated by Erudite Intelligence LLC, it accepts a JSON body containing a token address or symbol and returns price/market data. The endpoint is described as "Crypto data intelligence" in its x402 challenge.
Payment is accepted via two rails: USDC on Base (eip155:8453) at 0.01 USDC per call, or USDT on Tron (tron:728126428) at 0.01 USDT per call. The x402 v2 challenge is facilitated through Coinbase CDP on the Base rail. The endpoint responds to POST requests with a JSON body containing a `token` field (a token address string such as `0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000` or a symbol).
Documentation is sparse — the provider's landing page focuses on the EruditePay Bridge facilitator service rather than this specific market-data endpoint. The output schema shows a generic `{"success": true, "data": {}}` example without detailing the actual fields returned in the `data` object. No OpenAPI spec or dedicated docs page was found for this endpoint. The provider is a FinCEN-registered MSB (BSA ID 31000324258137) and operates a non-custodial settlement model.

Quality
The endpoint is live (402 challenge captured) with a clear payment schema and two payment rails, but documentation is extremely thin. The output example is a stub with an empty data object, no OpenAPI spec exists, and the provider's docs URL returns a 404. The actual response fields are unknown.
Warnings
- —Output schema example is a stub — actual data fields returned are undocumented
- —No OpenAPI or dedicated documentation found for this market-data endpoint (docs.eruditepay.com not crawled, /docs returns 404)
- —The token input field description says 'Token address or symbol' but only an address example is given; unclear which tokens beyond TRX are supported
