OHLCV candlestick data for LDO (Lido DAO) via pay-per-request x402 on Base.
What it does
This endpoint provides OHLCV (Open, High, Low, Close, Volume) candlestick data for the LDO (Lido DAO) cryptocurrency token. It is part of the lowpaymentfee.com platform, which offers a suite of data, AI, finance, and utility APIs all gated behind the x402 payment protocol on the Base network.
Each request costs $0.02 in USDC (USD Coin on Base, contract 0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913). The maxAmountRequired in the x402 challenge is 20000 base units, which at 6 decimals equals $0.02. Payment is made per-call via the x402 exact scheme — no API keys, subscriptions, or rate limits are required. The endpoint accepts POST requests and returns JSON.
Documentation beyond the landing page is sparse. The docs, API, pricing, and README pages all render only a "Connect wallet" prompt with no additional technical detail. The specific request body schema and response format for the OHLCV endpoint are not documented, so callers will need to experiment or inspect responses to determine supported parameters (e.g., time interval, date range). The platform advertises instant access with no rate limits and settlement on the Base L2 network.

Quality
The x402 challenge is live and pricing is clear ($0.02/request in USDC on Base). However, there is no documentation for the OHLCV endpoint's request parameters or response schema — docs pages only show a wallet connect prompt. The example request is inferred/speculative. This is effectively a stub listing.
Warnings

- —Example request JSON is speculative; actual required fields are unknown
- —No OpenAPI schema or output schema provided beyond basic HTTP method info
