An MCP server that delivers cryptocurrency sentiment analysis to AI agents.
Crypto Sentiment MCP server exists for a simple reason — assistants are far more useful when they can act on Crypto Sentiment directly instead of describing what you should do. An MCP server that delivers cryptocurrency sentiment analysis to AI agents.
An MCP server that delivers cryptocurrency sentiment analysis to AI agents, leveraging Santiment's aggregated social media and news data to track market mood and detect emerging trends.
Once Crypto Sentiment is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:
get_sentiment_balance — Get the average sentiment balance for an asset over a specified periodget_social_volume — Fetch the total number of social media mentions for an assetalert_social_shift — Detect significant spikes or drops in social volume compared to the previous averageget_trending_words — Retrieve the top trending words in crypto discussions, ranked by score over a periodget_social_dominance — Measure the percentage of crypto media discussions dominated by an assetSetup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.
You will need one environment variable: SANTIMENT_API_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Crypto Sentiment's toolset — get_sentiment_balance, get_social_volume, alert_social_shift and 2 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by kukapay; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
