Portfolio performance data via x402 micropayment on Base network, $0.02/request in USDC.
What it does
This endpoint at lowpaymentfee.com provides portfolio performance data for a specific portfolio (ID 39) behind an x402 paywall. The endpoint accepts POST requests and returns JSON. Payment is settled on the Base network using USDC (contract 0x8335…2913) with a maximum cost of 20,000 base units, which equals $0.02 per request (USDC uses 6 decimals).
The provider lowpaymentfee.com hosts a broad catalog of x402-gated APIs spanning data analytics, AI/ML inference, finance/Web3 data, and infrastructure utilities — all priced at $0.02 per request. This particular endpoint falls under the finance category and appears to return performance metrics for a tracked portfolio. No API keys or rate limits are advertised; access is granted purely via the x402 payment header.
Documentation is extremely sparse. The docs, pricing, API, and README pages all render only a "Connect wallet" prompt with no substantive content. There is no OpenAPI schema, no request/response examples, and no description of what fields the portfolio performance response contains. The endpoint is confirmed live (returns a proper 402 challenge), but the lack of documentation means callers must discover the response format experimentally.

Quality
The endpoint is confirmed live with a valid x402 402 challenge, but documentation is essentially nonexistent — no OpenAPI spec, no request/response examples, no field descriptions. The portfolio endpoint path and pricing are clear, but everything else must be discovered experimentally.
