Whale Tracker MCP Server
A mcp server for tracking cryptocurrency whale transactions.
Overview
Whale Tracker MCP is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed for tracking cryptocurrency whale transactions using the Whale Alert API. It allows users to monitor large cryptocurrency transactions in real-time.
To use Whale Tracker MCP, clone the repository from GitHub, install the necessary dependencies, and set up your Whale Alert API key in a .env file. You can run the server in development mode or integrate it with compatible MCP clients like Claude Desktop.
- Fetch recent whale transactions with filters for blockchain and minimum value. - Retrieve detailed information about specific transactions. - Expose recent transactions as contextual data for specified blockchains. - Analyze whale transaction patterns with reusable prompts. - Support for asynchronous API calls for efficient data retrieval.
- Monitoring large transactions on various blockchains.
- Analyzing trends in cryptocurrency movements.
- Integrating with LLM-powered workflows for enhanced data insights.
