# @cryptoapis-io/mcp-blockchain-events
MCP server for [Crypto APIs](https://cryptoapis.io/) Blockchain Events product. Create and manage webhook subscriptions for on-chain events.
> **API Version:** Compatible with Crypto APIs version **2024-12-12**
## Features
- Create webhook subscriptions for blockchain events (new block, confirmed transaction, address coins, token transfers, etc.)
- List, get, activate, and delete existing subscriptions
- Supports all major blockchains (EVM, UTXO, Solana, XRP)
## Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+
- [Crypto APIs](https://cryptoapis.io/) account and API key ([sign up](https://app.cryptoapis.io/signup) | [get API key](https://app.cryptoapis.io/api-keys))
## Installation
```bash
npm install @cryptoapis-io/mcp-blockchain-events
```
Or install all Crypto APIs MCP servers: `npm install @cryptoapis-io/mcp`
## Usage
```bash
# Run with API key
npx @cryptoapis-io/mcp-blockchain-events --api-key YOUR_API_KEY
# Or use environment variable
export CRYPTOAPIS_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY
npx @cryptoapis-io/mcp-blockchain-events
# HTTP transport
npx @cryptoapis-io/mcp-blockchain-events --transport http --port 3000 --api-key YOUR_API_KEY
```
### Claude Desktop
Add to your Claude Desktop config (`~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` on macOS, `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json` on Windows):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"cryptoapis-blockchain-events": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@cryptoapis-io/mcp-blockchain-events"],
"env": {
"CRYPTOAPIS_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
}
}
}
}
```
### Cursor
Add to `.cursor/mcp.json` (project) or `~/.cursor/mcp.json` (global):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"cryptoapis-blockchain-events": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@cryptoapis-io/mcp-blockchain-events"],
"env": {
"CRYPTOAPIS_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
}
}
}
}
```
### MCP Inspector
```bash
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector npx @cryptoapis-io/mcp-blockchain-events --api-key YOUR_API_KEY
```
### n8n
1. Start the server in HTTP mode:
```bash
npx @cryptoapis-io/mcp-blockchain-events --transport http --port 3000 --api-key YOUR_API_KEY
```
2. In your n8n workflow, add an **AI Agent** node
3. Under **Tools**, add an **MCP Client Tool** and set the URL to `http://localhost:3000/mcp`
> All servers default to port 3000. Use `--port` to assign different ports when running multiple servers.
## Available Tools
### `blockchain_events_manage`
Manage existing webhook subscriptions.
| Action | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `list-subscriptions` | List all webhook subscriptions |
| `get-subscription` | Get details of a specific subscription |
| `delete-subscription` | Delete a subscription |
| `activate-subscription` | Activate a paused subscription |
### `blockchain_events_create`
Create new webhook subscriptions for blockchain events.
| Parameter | Description |
|-----------|-------------|
| `eventType` | Event type to subscribe to (e.g., new block, confirmed transaction, address coins) |
| `callbackUrl` | URL to receive webhook notifications |
| `blockchain` | Target blockchain (optional, depends on event type) |
| `network` | Target network (optional, depends on event type) |
| `address` | Address to monitor (optional, depends on event type) |
## CLI Arguments
| Argument | Description | Default |
|----------|-------------|---------|
| `--api-key` | Crypto APIs API key | `CRYPTOAPIS_API_KEY` env var |
| `--transport` | Transport type: `stdio` or `http` | `stdio` |
| `--host` | HTTP host | `0.0.0.0` |
| `--port` | HTTP port | `3000` |
| `--path` | HTTP path | `/mcp` |
| `--stateless` | Enable stateless HTTP mode | `false` |
### HTTP API Key Modes
When using HTTP transport, the server supports two API key modes:
- **With `--api-key`:** The key is used for all requests. `x-api-key` request headers are ignored.
- **Without `--api-key`:** Each request must include an `x-api-key` header with a valid Crypto APIs key. This enables hosting a public server where each user provides their own key.
```bash
# Per-request key mode (multi-tenant)
npx @cryptoapis-io/mcp-blockchain-events --transport http --port 3000
# Clients send x-api-key header with each request
```
> Stdio transport always requires an API key at startup.
## Important: API Key Required
> **Warning:** Making requests without a valid API key — or with an incorrect one — may result in your IP being banned from the Crypto APIs ecosystem. Always ensure a valid API key is configured before starting any server.
## Remote MCP Server
Crypto APIs provides an official remote MCP server with all tools available via HTTP Streamable transport at [https://ai.cryptoapis.io/mcp](https://ai.cryptoapis.io/mcp). Pass your API key via the `x-api-key` header — no installation required.
