The example works on my MacBook if I replace gunzip with funzip. Also, I like to see the value. So:

    curl -s https://www.ecb.europa.eu/stats/eurofxref/eurofxref-hist.zip | funzip | sqlite3 -csv ':memory:' '.import /dev/stdin stdin' "select Date,USD from stdin order by USD asc limit 1;"

Thx. I have extended a bit as a script:

    # !/bin/bash
    ARG1=${1:-'select Date from stdin order by USD asc limit 1;'}
    curl -o - -Ls https://www.ecb.europa.eu/stats/eurofxref/eurofxref-hist.zip \
  | funzip | sqlite3 -csv ':memory:' '.import /dev/stdin stdin' "${ARG1}"

    # Usage:
    $ ./run.sh 'select * from stdin limit 1;'
