This tool reads live information from Hacker News, a popular website where people share and discuss technology news. You can either ask for a current list of stories (like the Top, New, Best, Ask, Show, or Job lists) or ask for every story, job posting, and poll that was posted on one specific calendar day in the past. You can also choose to pull in the discussion comments underneath each story, including nested replies several levels deep.

Claim it for free with x402_provider_claim (sign with your payout address), and get an alert within minutes when it stops answering with x402_monitor_create ($5 for 30 days). Both work over MCP (https://logicnodes.io/mcp/v2) or POST https://logicnodes.io/v1/tools/<tool>.

Income is all USDC received by the provider's payout address on Base, whatever the source. Score: 0-100: 50 x share of checks in the last 72 h that returned valid x402 payment terms + 30 x min(1, log10(1 + USDC received in 7 days) / 4) + 20 x min(1, log10(1 + distinct payers in 7 days) / 3). A provider never checked scores on income only; income is all USDC received by its payout address on Base, whatever the source. JSON: /v1/observatory/providers/hackernews-data.underscoredone.com
