NFT metadata endpoint on Base, pay-per-call via x402 with USDC at $0.02/request.
What it does
This x402-enabled endpoint serves NFT metadata for token ID 74 at lowpaymentfee.com. It accepts POST requests and returns JSON. Payment is settled on the Base network using USDC (contract 0x8335…2913) through the x402 "exact" scheme. The maximum amount required per call is 20,000 base units of USDC, which equals $0.02 (USDC uses 6 decimals). No API keys or rate limits are advertised; access is granted per-request upon valid x402 payment.
The provider, lowpaymentfee.com, hosts a broader catalog of pay-per-call APIs spanning data analytics, AI/ML inference (sentiment, summarization, classification, embeddings), finance/Web3 (price feeds, exchange rates, gas estimates), and infrastructure utilities (geocoding, validation, conversion, generation) — all listed at the same $0.02/request price point. However, this specific endpoint is scoped to NFT metadata retrieval.
Documentation is minimal. There is no OpenAPI spec, no request/response schema beyond the x402 challenge's outputSchema stub, and no example payloads. The endpoint is confirmed live (HTTP 402 challenge returned successfully), but the actual structure of the metadata response and any required POST body fields are unknown from the available material.
