Bitculator MCP Server

bitculator.com · MCP documentation · Get an MCP key Official MCP Registry · Smithery · Glama

Live and historical crypto market data for AI agents: prices, OHLCV history, sentiment indices, technical indicators, exchanges, liquidations and conversions, as 19 read-only tools.

It is a hosted, remote MCP server: there is nothing to install or run. Point any MCP client that supports remote servers over Streamable HTTP at the endpoint below and add your key.


Endpoint	`https://bitculator.com/mcp`
Transport	Streamable HTTP
Authentication	MCP key, as `Authorization: Bearer <key>` or `X-API-Key: <key>`
Registry name	`com.bitculator/market-data`

Get a key

Create a key in the MCP console. The free MCP plan works, no card required. MCP keys are their own product: Data API keys and widget keys are rejected with 401 unauthenticated.

Keep the key out of shared files you commit: put it in your client's settings or an environment variable.

Smithery and other gateways

On Smithery, enter your MCP key in the connection form. Gateways that reserve the Authorization header for their own sign-in can send the same key as an X-API-Key header instead.
