onchain-intel-live is a live on-chain intelligence feed designed for AI agents that need to reason about blockchain activity, capital flows, and network congestion. Each response combines chain TVL snapshots across Ethereum, Base, and Arbitrum with 24h DEX volume data, real-time ETH gas prices, and a derived whale activity signal — classifying current on-chain behavior as quiet, moderate, elevated, or high. Pay $0.01 USDC per query via x402.
Each query returns a structured snapshot. Sample response:

$0.01 USDC per query — no subscription, no API key, no account required. Data updates every 10 minutes; most agents query once per strategy evaluation cycle. At $0.01/query, 288 daily queries (one per 5-minute window) costs $2.88/day — a fraction of the cost of maintaining a dedicated on-chain indexer.
