NFT metadata endpoint on Base, pay-per-call via x402 with USDC at $0.02/request.
What it does
This endpoint serves NFT metadata for token ID 78 via a pay-per-request x402 protocol on the Base network. The caller sends a POST request with an X-PAYMENT header containing a USDC payment proof, and receives JSON metadata in return. The payment is settled on-chain using USDC (contract 0x8335…2913) on Base.
The endpoint is part of a broader API platform at lowpaymentfee.com that offers dozens of endpoints across data analytics, AI/ML inference, finance/Web3, and infrastructure utilities — all priced at $0.02 per request. The platform advertises no API keys, no rate limits, and instant access; authentication and billing are handled entirely through the x402 payment challenge. The x402 challenge specifies a maxAmountRequired of 20000 base units; since USDC uses 6 decimals, this equals $0.02 per call.
This specific endpoint (/api/v1/nfts/78/metadata) is not prominently listed on the site's landing page, which focuses on analytics, AI, finance, and utility endpoints. The actual content of the NFT metadata returned is unknown — no example response or schema is documented. The endpoint is confirmed live (returns 402 with a valid x402 challenge).

Quality
The endpoint is live and returns a valid x402 challenge, confirming pricing and network. However, there is no OpenAPI schema, no documented request body, no example response, and the NFT metadata endpoint isn't even listed on the provider's landing page. The actual data returned is entirely unknown.
