Whale Alerts API — Pay Per Call with USDC on Base

whale_alerts API

Scan recent blocks for large ETH transfers involving an address. Filter by direction (in/out/both) and threshold. Part of the x402 Gateway — $0.002 per call, settled in USDC on Base. No accounts, no API keys: agents pay per request via the x402 protocol.

How payment works

Send a POST to https://x402.freeq.one/tools/whale_alerts without a payment header and the API replies 402 Payment Required with an x402 challenge (payTo address, USDC amount, Base network). A paying agent signs the USDC payment and retries with the X-PAYMENT header — settlement is verified on-chain in seconds and the API response returns with an X-PAYMENT-RESPONSE receipt.

Example call

curl -X POST https://x402.freeq.one/tools/whale_alerts \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"{param}": "{value}"}'
