Usage

The current MCP endpoint is https://mcp.coinmarketcap.com/mcp

Header-based API key authentication is the verified setup used throughout this docs set. If you are integrating through source code or an MCP client configuration file, include the X-CMC-MCP-API-KEY header as shown below.

Some MCP clients may also support OAuth-based flows, but treat that as client-specific behavior and verify it in your environment.

Code
{ "mcpServers": { "cmc-mcp": { "url": "https://mcp.coinmarketcap.com/mcp", "headers": { "X-CMC-MCP-API-KEY": "xxxx" } } } }

On-chain data (WIP)

The data available at present is limited, and we will carry out a comprehensive upgrade to deliver multi-market dex trading and on-chain data, including token information, transaction data, security metrics, K-line (candlestick) data, related pool information, and featured ranking data.

It covers data from hundreds of DEXs across multiple blockchain ecosystems such as Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain (BSC), with standardized data parsing and processing.

AI can leverage these tools to access both real-time and historical data for use cases including strategy backtesting, market monitoring, and analytics.
