Onyx Bazaar vs Wikidata
Onyx Bazaar is a public leaderboard of x402 pay-per-call HTTP services on Base, Solana, and other chains, refreshed every 15 minutes from Coinbase's CDP discovery API. It ranks listed endpoints by call volume, unique payers, price, and recency, with views for cheapest, newest, and highest-quality services. A keyless JSON endpoint (/bazaar.json) mirrors the same leaderboard data shown on the page for agents that want to query it directly.
Wikidata's action API exposes the structured, multilingual knowledge base behind Wikipedia's infoboxes — entity search, full item/property retrieval, and SPARQL-style queries over billions of statements. All read operations (wbsearchentities, wbgetentities, wbgetclaims, and friends) are keyless; OAuth only comes into play for authenticated edits/writes, which this directory entry isn't about. CORS is opt-in per request via the documented `origin=*` query parameter, which returns a wildcard Access-Control-Allow-Origin.
