Here's an update with all the news about Zerion API.

August Zerion Alpha: Robinhood Chain Report, RWA Labels, and more

There is lots of new in this update. New research, a new asset class in the schema, a new way for agents to pay, and a dashboard that now shows you your request volume. Here's the rundown.

📕 New report: How Robinhood Chain became the hottest L2 of this summer

A chain built for RWAs turned into crypto's busiest speculative token market.

To see how it got there, we pulled two months of onchain data indexed for Zerion wallet, portfolio tracker, and CLI. Robinhood Chain ranked #1 for trades across Zerion apps on 55 of its first 2 months. We also look at the most widely held tokens, the balance of memes vs Stock Tokens, where the active addresses came from, and more.

A chain built for Stock Tokens became crypto’s busiest speculative token market, and the same wallets were doing both. Get the full report.

🏦 RWAs and tokenized assets, now labeled

In the Zerion API, tokenized stocks, treasuries, commodities, and stablecoins are now clearly labeled and easily distinguishable from ordinary tokens. This is available on fungibles and wallet positions endpoints as well as in inside webhook payloads.

Classification is issuer-driven and covers Ondo, BlackRock, Franklin Templeton, WisdomTree, and 50+ more. If you're building with RWAs, you no longer need your own token list to do it.

Available as an add-on, enabled per organization. Sign in to Dashboard and talk to us about enabling it.

Zerion for agents: MCP, CLI, and pay-per-request

The Zerion MCP server and CLI install into any of your AI tools with one click.

And through AgentCash, agents can now call the API pay-per-request in USDC. No API key is needed at all. 

💳 Pay-as-you-go overages, live

Go past your plan quota in Zerion API with a hard spend cap you set yourself. Once you hit it, your account returns to standard behavior. This means your bill never exceeds the number you chose.
