+ # CoinPaprika MCP Server
2
+
3
+ A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides on-demand access to CoinPaprika's cryptocurrency market data API. Built specifically for AI assistants like Claude to programmatically fetch real-time prices, tickers, exchange data, OHLCV candles, and more with zero configuration.
4
+
5
+ ## TL;DR
6
+
7
+ ```bash
8
+ # Install globally
9
+ npm install -g @coinpaprika/mcp
10
+
11
+ # Start the server
12
+ coinpaprika-mcp
13
+
14
+ # Or run directly without installation
15
+ npx @coinpaprika/mcp
16
+ ```
17
+
18
+ CoinPaprika MCP connects Claude to live crypto market data for 8,000+ coins. No API key required for free-tier features. [Installation](#installation) | [Configuration](#claude-desktop-integration) | [API Reference](https://api.coinpaprika.com)
19
+
20
+ > **Prefer zero setup?** Use the hosted MCP server at [mcp.coinpaprika.com](https://mcp.coinpaprika.com) — no installation, no API key, same 30 tools. See [Hosted Alternative](#hosted-alternative-no-installation) for transport endpoints.
21
+
22
+ ## What Can You Build?
23
+
24
+ - **Market Dashboards**: Real-time market overview with global stats, top coins, and volume trends
25
+ - **Coin Analysis Tools**: Deep-dive into any cryptocurrency — price, team, events, exchanges, and markets
26
+ - **Price Trackers**: Track prices across multiple quote currencies with historical OHLCV data
27
+ - **Exchange Comparisons**: Compare trading pairs and volumes across 200+ exchanges
28
+ - **Portfolio Valuations**: Convert between currencies and track price changes over time
29
+ - **Contract Lookup**: Find tokens by their smart contract address across multiple platforms
30
+

193
+ The free tier provides access to most tools without any API key. For paid-tier features (historical data, mappings, etc.), set the `COINPAPRIKA_API_KEY` environment variable:
194
+
195
+ ```bash
196
+ # Set via environment variable
197
+ export COINPAPRIKA_API_KEY=your-api-key-here
198
+ coinpaprika-mcp
199
+
200
+ # Or pass inline
201
+ COINPAPRIKA_API_KEY=your-api-key-here npx @coinpaprika/mcp
202
+ ```
203
+
204
+ Get an API key at [coinpaprika.com/api/pricing](https://coinpaprika.com/api/pricing/).
205
+
206
+ ### Example Usage
207
+
208
+ ```javascript
209
+ // Start by getting capabilities for workflow guidance:
210
+ const caps = await getCapabilities();
211
+
212
+ // Get global market overview:
213
+ const global = await getGlobal();
214
+
215
+ // Find a coin by name:
216
+ const results = await search({ q: "ethereum" });
217
+
218
+ // Get detailed coin info:
219
+ const bitcoin = await getCoinById({ coinId: "btc-bitcoin" });
220
+
221
+ // Get current ticker with USD and BTC quotes:
222
+ const ticker = await getTickersById({ coinId: "eth-ethereum", quotes: "USD,BTC" });
223
+
224
+ // Get OHLCV data for today:
225
+ const ohlcv = await getCoinOHLCVToday({ coinId: "btc-bitcoin" });
226
+
227
+ // Convert 1 BTC to USD:
228
+ const conversion = await priceConverter({
229
+ baseCurrencyId: "btc-bitcoin",
230
+ quoteCurrencyId: "usd-us-dollars",
231
+ amount: 1
232
+ });
233
+
234
+ // List top 10 exchanges:
235
+ const exchanges = await getExchanges({ limit: 10 });
236
+
237
+ // Resolve fuzzy query to exact coin ID:
238
+ const resolved = await resolveId({ type: "coin", query: "cardano" });
239
+ ```
240
+
241
+ ## Sample Prompts for Claude
242
+
243
+ - "What's the current price of Bitcoin and Ethereum? Show me 24h change."
244
+ - "Give me a comprehensive analysis of Cardano — price, team, events, and top exchanges."
245
+ - "Compare the top 5 crypto exchanges by trading volume."
246
+ - "Convert 10 ETH to USD and show the current exchange rate."
247
+ - "Find all coins tagged as 'defi' and show their market caps."
248
+ - "What exchanges list Solana and what trading pairs are available?"
249
+ - "Show me the OHLCV data for Bitcoin today."
250
+ - "Search for all coins related to 'layer-2' and rank them by market cap."
251
+ - "Look up the team behind Ethereum — who are the key people?"
252
+ - "Get the ticker for USDT by its Ethereum contract address."
253
+
254
+ ## Rate Limits & Performance
255
+
256
+ - **Free Tier Limits**: 10,000 requests per day
257
+ - **Response Time**: 100-500ms for most endpoints
258
+ - **Data Coverage**: 8,000+ coins, 200+ exchanges
259
+ - **Error Handling**: Structured errors with codes, suggestions, and retry guidance
260
+ - **Rate Limit Info**: Every response includes rate limit metadata
261
+
262
+ ## Troubleshooting
263
+
264
+ **Common Issues:**
265
+
266
+ - **Rate limiting**: If receiving `CP429_RATE_LIMIT` errors, wait for daily reset at midnight UTC
267
+ - **Invalid coin ID**: Coin IDs use `symbol-name` format (e.g., `btc-bitcoin`, not `bitcoin` or `BTC`). Use `search` or `resolveId` to find correct IDs
268
+ - **Paid-tier errors**: `CP402_INSUFFICIENT_PLAN` or `CP403_FORBIDDEN` mean the endpoint requires a paid plan. Set `COINPAPRIKA_API_KEY` environment variable
269
+ - **Timeout errors**: Large data requests may take longer — reduce the `limit` parameter
270
+ - **Network errors**: Check network connectivity, the service requires internet access
