Available tools 5

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

crypto
crypto_history
Historical price series for a coin. `days` = lookback in days (1, 7, 14, 30, 90, 180, 365, 'max'). `interval` may be 'daily' or 'hourly' (free tier daily-only beyond 90 days).
crypto_market_global
Global crypto market snapshot: total market cap, 24h volume, BTC dominance, active cryptocurrencies, etc.
crypto_prices
Current prices for one or more cryptocurrencies. Pass the CoinGecko `id` (e.g. 'bitcoin', 'ethereum', 'solana') — use `crypto_search` if you only have a symbol or name. `vs` is the quote currency (default 'usd'; also 'inr', 'eur', 'jpy', etc.). Returns price, 24h change, market cap, volume.
crypto_search
Search for a coin by name or symbol. Returns up to 10 matches with their CoinGecko `id` (which is what you pass to crypto_prices).
crypto_trending
Top trending coins on CoinGecko in the last 24h (community/search-volume signal).

Crypto Prices — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Crypto Prices do?
It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: crypto_history, crypto_market_global, crypto_prices, crypto_search, crypto_trending. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Crypto Prices working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 6 of 91 checks got a reply (6.6%), average response time 274 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Crypto Prices as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect Crypto Prices?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Crypto Prices need an API key?
No. Crypto Prices completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 5 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Crypto Prices?
It answers our handshake in 274 ms on average, which is faster than 50% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Crypto Prices open source?
Yes — it is published under the NOASSERTION licence, written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
