🪙 Crypto Prices MCP Server — Coin Prices & FX Rates for Claude / ChatGPT

Connect AI agents to live cryptocurrency prices and fiat exchange rates through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Clean JSON tuned for LLM function-calling. Pay-per-use, no subscription.

What You Get

This MCP server exposes 2 tools to your AI agent:

• crypto_prices — live cryptocurrency prices (sourced from CoinGecko)
• exchange_rates — fiat currency exchange rates (e.g. USD/EUR/GBP). Note: this is fiat-to-fiat FX, not crypto-exchange data.

All responses are structured JSON for LLM tool use.

Use Cases

• Portfolio assistants — an agent fetches current coin prices on demand
• FX-aware agents — convert between fiat currencies using live rates
• Chatbots — answer "what's the price of Bitcoin right now?"

FAQ

Q: Which coins are supported? Crypto prices are sourced from CoinGecko's public data.

Q: Does it provide OHLCV/historical candles, trending coins, market dominance, fear & greed, developer activity, or DEX data? No. This server provides current crypto prices and fiat exchange rates only.

Q: Can the AI agent call this from Cursor / Cline / Claude Desktop? Yes — any MCP-compatible client works.
