# BlockBeats API Skill

Query crypto newsflashes, articles, search results, and on-chain market data via the BlockBeats Pro API.

**Base URL**: `https://api-pro.theblockbeats.info`
**Auth**: All requests require Header `api-key: $BLOCKBEATS_API_KEY`
**Response format**: `{"status": 0, "message": "", "data": {...}}` — status 0 = success

---

## Scenario 1: Market Overview

**Triggers**: How's the market today, market overview, daily summary, market conditions

Execute the following four requests in parallel:

```bash
# 1. Market sentiment index
curl -s -H "api-key: $BLOCKBEATS_API_KEY" \
  "https://api-pro.theblockbeats.info/v1/data/bottom_top_indicator"

# 2. Important newsflashes (latest 5)
curl -s -H "api-key: $BLOCKBEATS_API_KEY" \
  "https://api-pro.theblockbeats.info/v1/newsflash/important" \
  -G --data-urlencode "size=5" --data-urlencode "lang=en"

# 3. BTC ETF net inflow
curl -s -H "api-key: $BLOCKBEATS_API_KEY" \
  "https://api-pro.theblockbeats.info/v1/data/btc_etf"

# 4. Daily on-chain transaction volume
curl -s -H "api-key: $BLOCKBEATS_API_KEY" \
  "https://api-pro.theblockbeats.info/v1/data/daily_tx"
```

**Output format**:
```
📊 Market Overview · [Today's date]

Sentiment Index: [value] → [<20 potential buy zone / 20-80 neutral / >80 potential sell zone]
BTC ETF: Today net inflow [value] million USD, cumulative [value] million
On-chain Volume: Today [value] (vs yesterday [↑/↓][change%])
Key News:
  · [Title 1] [time]
  · [Title 2] [time]
  · [Title 3] [time]
```

**Interpretation rules**:
- Sentiment < 20 → Alert user to potential opportunities
- Sentiment > 80 → Warn about sell-off risk
- ETF positive inflow 3 days in a row → Institutional accumulation signal
- ETF net inflow > 500M/day → Strong buy signal
- Rising on-chain volume → Increasing on-chain activity and market heat

## Scenario 2: Capital Flow Analysis

**Triggers**: Where is capital flowing, on-chain trends, which tokens are being bought, stablecoins, smart money

Execute in parallel:

```bash
# 1. Top 10 tokens by on-chain net inflow (default solana; replace network param for Base/ETH)
curl -s -H "api-key: $BLOCKBEATS_API_KEY" \
  "https://api-pro.theblockbeats.info/v1/data/top10_netflow" \
  -G --data-urlencode "network=solana"

# 2. Stablecoin market cap
curl -s -H "api-key: $BLOCKBEATS_API_KEY" \
  "https://api-pro.theblockbeats.info/v1/data/stablecoin_marketcap"

# 3. BTC ETF net inflow
curl -s -H "api-key: $BLOCKBEATS_API_KEY" \
  "https://api-pro.theblockbeats.info/v1/data/btc_etf"
```

Select `network` parameter based on user intent: `solana` (default) / `base` / `ethereum`

**Output format**:
```
💰 Capital Flow Analysis

On-chain Trending ([chain]):
  1. [token] Net inflow $[value]  Market cap $[value]
  2. ...

Stablecoins: USDT [↑/↓] USDC [↑/↓] (expansion/contraction signal)
Institutional: ETF today [inflow/outflow] [value] million USD
```

**Interpretation rules**:
- Stablecoin market cap expanding → More capital in market, stronger buy potential
- Stablecoin market cap shrinking → Capital exiting, caution advised

---

## Scenario 3: Macro Environment Assessment

**Triggers**: Macro environment, is it a good time to enter, liquidity, US Treasuries, dollar, M2, big picture

Execute in parallel:

```bash
# 1. Global M2 supply
curl -s -H "api-key: $BLOCKBEATS_API_KEY" \
  "https://api-pro.theblockbeats.info/v1/data/m2_supply" \
  -G --data-urlencode "type=1Y"

# 2. US 10Y Treasury yield
curl -s -H "api-key: $BLOCKBEATS_API_KEY" \
  "https://api-pro.theblockbeats.info/v1/data/us10y" \
  -G --data-urlencode "type=1M"

# 3. DXY Dollar Index
curl -s -H "api-key: $BLOCKBEATS_API_KEY" \
  "https://api-pro.theblockbeats.info/v1/data/dxy" \
  -G --data-urlencode "type=1M"

# 4. Compliant exchange total assets
curl -s -H "api-key: $BLOCKBEATS_API_KEY" \
  "https://api-pro.theblockbeats.info/v1/data/compliant_total"
```

**Output format**:
```
🌐 Macro Environment Assessment

Global M2: [latest value] YoY [↑/↓][change%] → [expansionary/contractionary]
US Treasury Yield (10Y): [latest value]% → [rising/falling trend]
Dollar Index (DXY): [latest value] → [strong/weak]
Compliant Exchange Assets: $[value] → [inflow/outflow trend]

Overall: [bullish/neutral/bearish] for crypto market
```

**Interpretation rules**:
- M2 YoY > 5% → Loose liquidity, favorable for risk assets
- M2 YoY < 0% → Liquidity tightening, caution
- DXY rising → Strong dollar, crypto under pressure
- DXY falling → Weak dollar, crypto benefits
- Rising Treasury yield → Higher risk-free rate, capital returning to bonds
- Rising compliant exchange assets → Growing institutional allocation appetite

Exchange Rankings (by volume):
  1. [name] Volume $[value]  OI $[value]
  2. ...

Bitfinex BTC Longs: [value] → [increasing/decreasing] (leveraged long sentiment [strong/weak])
