Check token tax/fee metadata for any crypto token address via x402 micropayment.
What it does
The EruditePay Token Tax Check endpoint accepts a POST request with a token address (or symbol) and returns tax-related intelligence data for that token. It is part of the EruditePay Bridge platform, described as "Crypto data intelligence," and is operated by Erudite Intelligence LLC, a FinCEN MSB-registered entity.
The endpoint is live and uses the x402 v2 payment protocol. Each call costs 10,000 base units of either USDC on Base (eip155:8453) or USDT on Tron (tron:728126428). Since both USDC and USDT use 6 decimals, the per-call price is $0.01 (one cent). Payment is facilitated through the Coinbase CDP x402 facilitator for the Base option. The response is JSON with a structure of `{"success": true, "data": {}}`, though the exact fields within `data` are not documented beyond the example stub.
Documentation is sparse — the `/docs` path returns a 404, and no OpenAPI spec is available. The input schema requires a JSON body with a `token` field (string: token address or symbol). The output schema and the specific tax metrics returned (e.g., buy tax percentage, sell tax percentage, transfer tax, honeypot detection) are not explicitly documented in the probe or crawl material, so the exact data fields must be discovered by making a paid call.

}Endpoint
Quality
The endpoint is live (402 challenge captured) with a clear input schema and pricing, but documentation is effectively absent — /docs returns 404, no OpenAPI spec exists, and the output data fields are entirely unknown beyond a stub example. The description 'Crypto data intelligence' and endpoint path 'token/tax-check' allow reasonable inference but not certainty about returned fields.
Warnings
- —No documentation available — /docs returns 404 and no OpenAPI spec is published
- —Output data fields are completely undocumented; the example shows an empty data object
- —Exact tax metrics returned (buy tax, sell tax, honeypot, etc.) must be inferred from the endpoint name
