A side-by-side look at the Swiftnodes MCP and Token Minter MCP MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Swiftnodes MCP for finance & fintech work as a local process; choose Token Minter MCP for finance & fintech as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.

list_chainsEvery chain SwiftNodes serves — name, slug, chain ID, category, docs page. Filterable.get_chainFull detail for one chain: IDs, block time, native currency, HTTP/WebSocket/archive endpoint templates, docs links.get_pricingLive flat-rate plans from the public API — rate limits, included features, no compute units.get_method_supportWhich JSON-RPC methods work on which chain — auto-probed weekly through the same path customer requests take. Overview or per-method detail.probe_endpointDiagnose any EVM JSON-RPC endpoint (ours or anyone's): chain identity, block height, archive capability, latency — or run a specific method call.deployTokenDeploys a new ERC-20 token (name, symbol, initialSupply, decimals, chainId).transferTokenTransfers ERC-20 tokens (tokenAddress, toAddress, amount, chainId).getTransactionInfoRetrieves transaction details (txHash, chainId).getTokenBalanceQueries the balance of a specific ERC-20 token for the current account.getTokenInfoQueries ERC-20 token metadata (tokenAddress, chainId).getBalanceChecks native token balance (chainId).Paste either block (or both) into your client config, e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json. We only show a config when the install command is confirmed.
