# Belong Launches Event Data Platform With Half-Cent USDC Queries By Simon Yoon Canonical URL: https://www.tokenpost.com/news/technology/48885 Published: 2026-11-05T00:02:06.000Z Updated: 2026-11-05T00:02:06.000Z Section: Technology > Long Events covers 400 cities in 118 countries, with API and MCP access for developers. Belong launched Long Events on Nov. 4, giving AI agents a way to search event listings across 400 cities and settle individual API calls in USDC on Base for $0.005 each. The catalog combines event listings from ticketing sites and event organizers in a standardized format. It covers 118 countries and contains details on 500,000 past and upcoming events, 180,000 venues, 80,000 artists and 300 event weeks. Developers can reach the catalog through a REST application programming interface (API) or 16 Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools. An API lets software request information over the web; MCP tools give AI models a defined way to connect with outside services. A developer can connect an application to the API or configure an agent to query Long Events through its MCP tools. Each API call costs $0.005 and is settled in USDC on Base. At that listed price, $1 pays for 200 calls. The per-request rate allows individual searches to be paid for separately, while the bundle option offers a prepaid route. Belong sells prepaid bundles of 10 calls on BNB Chain. Buyers can pay in LONG, USDT, USDC or USD1. Payments made with LONG carry a 20% promotional discount through March 31, 2027. Individual USDC calls use Base, while the prepaid bundles use BNB Chain. The launch adds event information to a set of services that AI agents can access through blockchain payments. Celo Core Co.'s [buy marketplace for agent services]() lists computing, data and API services that agents can purchase from wallets on Celo. Long Events focuses on event listings, with payment attached to queries or 10-call bundles. Belong plans to expand data freshness and developer integrations. ## Links in this article - [buy marketplace for agent services](https://www.tokenpost.com/news/technology/31263)
