Short answer: Depends on your trading style.
What works WITHOUT any API key:
- β Real-time price data (with slight delays)
- β Swing trading analysis (3-7 day trades)
- β Position trading (weeks to months)
- β Long-term investment analysis
- β All technical indicators on DAILY timeframe
- β 1 year of daily historical data
- π Basic price data for 7+ MILLION tokens via DexPaprika
- π Liquidity pool data across all major DEXes
- π DEX price comparison and aggregation
What REQUIRES a Pro API key ($99/mo):
- β Day trading (you need hourly/4h data)
- β Scalping (you need minute data)
- β Intraday patterns and signals
- β Real-time/low-latency updates
- β Historical data beyond 1 year
- β Any timeframe shorter than daily
How to get your FREE API key:
- Go to CoinPaprika API
- Click "Start Free"
- Register for an account
- Get your API key
- Add to Claude Desktop config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"crypto-analysis": {
"command": "/path/to/crypto-analysis-mcp",
"env": {
"COINPAPRIKA_API_KEY": "your-free-api-key-here"
}
}
}
}
The free tier includes:
- β 25,000 API calls per month
- β 1 year of daily historical data
- β 2,500+ cryptocurrencies
For advanced features, upgrade to CoinPaprika Pro:
- β 4-hour and hourly timeframes (Pro required)
- β Extended historical data beyond 1 year
- β Higher rate limits
- β Priority support
Currently: Not directly - this MCP is specifically built for CoinPaprika's API structure.
Coming in v1.2.0: CoinMarketCap API support! π
Key differences:
- CoinMarketCap: Different endpoint structure (support coming in v1.2.0!)
- CoinGecko: Different data format (planned for future release)
- CoinPaprika: Best coverage (71,000+ assets vs 10,000-20,000 for competitors)
We chose CoinPaprika first because:
- 3x more market coverage than competitors
- More generous free tier
- Better historical data access
- Superior API reliability (99.9% uptime)
Once v1.2.0 is released, you'll be able to switch between CoinPaprika and CoinMarketCap APIs with a simple configuration change!
π v1.1: Now supports 7+ MILLION tokens!
With our new DexPaprika integration:
- β All 2,500+ CoinPaprika tokens (major coins with full analysis)
- β 7+ MILLION DEX tokens via DexPaprika (automatic fallback)
- β Every token on every DEX across 23+ blockchains
- β Brand new tokens - analyze tokens minutes after launch
- β Obscure meme coins - if it trades on a DEX, we have it
- β NO API KEY NEEDED for basic price data
Examples:
- Major coins: BTC, ETH, SOL (full technical analysis via CoinPaprika)
- Popular memes: DOGE, SHIB, PEPE, WOJAK (price data from any source)
- New launches: That token that launched 5 minutes ago on Uniswap
- Any ERC-20, BEP-20, SPL token, or token on any supported chain
Just use the ticker symbol - the MCP automatically finds it!
You're trying to use features that require a Pro subscription:
Common causes:
- Using any timeframe other than 'daily' (4h, 1h, 15m, etc.)
- Requesting data older than 1 year
- Exceeding rate limits (rare)
Solutions:
- For swing trading/investing: Just use 'daily' timeframe - it's free!
- For day trading: You MUST upgrade to CoinPaprika Pro ($99/mo)
There is NO free option for day trading. If you need intraday data, you need to pay.
- Based on well-established technical indicators
- No prediction is 100% accurate
- Always do your own research
- Never invest more than you can afford to lose
- Consider multiple factors beyond technical analysis
While technically possible, we strongly advise caution:
- This MCP provides analysis, not execution
- Requires additional safety mechanisms
- Needs proper risk management
- Should be thoroughly backtested
- Consider paper trading first
Depends on your API tier:
- Free tier: ~1-5 minute delays
- Pro tier: 30-second updates for prices
- Cached locally: 1-5 minutes to reduce API calls
Yes! Your API key:
- Is never hardcoded
- Only read from environment variables
- Never logged or transmitted
- Only used for CoinPaprika API calls
- Follows security best practices
Absolutely! We welcome contributions:
