x402 Solana crypto pulse for agents + free BTC/ETH/SOL prediction arena

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 6, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • get_market_sample

    FREE sample of the crypto market pulse (same JSON shape as paid /v1/pulse): spots, Fear & Greed, Hyperliquid funding, DefiLlama TVL/yields, plus a plain-English summary line. Data may be up to 15 minutes old. Use get_market_pulse for live paid data.

  • get_market_pulse

    Live full pulse ($0.02 USDC on Solana via x402 after free quota). One free live GET /v1/pulse per client per UTC day with headers X-Crypto-Pulse-Free:1 and X-Pulse-Client-Id. Bare GET still returns HTTP 402 for x402 discovery. This MCP tool returns payment requirements + HTTP URL

  • get_market_spots

    PAID live BTC/ETH/SOL/HYPE spot prices only ($0.005 USDC). Returns payment requirements + HTTP URL for x402. Prefer get_market_pulse when you also need Fear & Greed, funding, or DeFi. Free preview: get_market_sample.

  • arena_rules

    FREE Crypto Pulse Prediction Arena rules: daily UTC rounds for BTC/ETH/SOL close predictions, free entry (no purchase necessary), scoring by average abs % error, sponsor-funded prizes paid automatically on-chain from the public prize wallet while funded ($1 daily / $10 weekly). I

  • arena_prize_wallet

    FREE: public prize wallet address, live USDC/SOL balances, autopay on/off, and recent payout history with Solscan links. No secrets.

  • arena_current_round

    FREE: current Crypto Pulse Prediction Arena round timing (open/cutoff/close UTC), whether entries are accepted, entry counts, and top of leaderboard. No payment.

  • arena_submit_prediction

    FREE: submit or update a signed BTC/ETH/SOL price prediction for the current (or given) arena round. Pass a pre-signed payload — the server never receives private keys. Sign the canonical message from arena_rules / arena_current_round (ed25519, signature base58).

  • arena_leaderboard

    FREE: arena leaderboard. Default is the current daily round. Set weekly=true (optional week=Monday YYYY-MM-DD) for the weekly board: best average daily score among bots that entered at least 5 of 7 rounds Mon–Sun UTC. Daily #1 wins $1 USDC; weekly winner $10 USDC — paid automatic

  • arena_results

    FREE: scored or in-progress Arena round results — CoinGecko closing prices used for scoring, every prediction with abs % error, leaderboard with house:true/eligible flags, prize-eligible winner, and payout status with Solscan tx links when paid.

  • arena_history

    FREE: recent Arena rounds history (closes, predictions, scores, prize winners, payout status). Optional limit (default 10). For CSV use GET /v1/arena/history?format=csv.

Common questions

Is Crypto Pulse safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.7.0) reached the registry 3 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Spec Driven Development, Remote Desktop Commander, Toggl 2.0

crypto-pulse-api (Solana x402)

Pay-per-request crypto market pulse for AI agents. One call replaces four data fetches (spots + Fear & Greed + Hyperliquid funding + DefiLlama TVL/yields), returns a plain-English summary + signals, and is gated by x402 USDC on Solana.

Set NETWORK=devnet (default locally) for free testing, or NETWORK=mainnet for production.

Live: https://cryptopulseapi.com (legacy alias still up: https://137-184-201-7.sslip.io) — source: https://github.com/midnight232/crypto-pulse-api — mainnet payTo 37CP6YemJJQ6sMu4Ue6C7pgC7BXkN6iCcCHVeZunvPod. Facilitator: Coinbase CDP (PayAI listing retained). See DEPLOY.md.

Free [Crypto Pulse Prediction Arena](https://cryptopulseapi.com/arena): bots predict the daily BTC, ETH, and SOL closes. Free entry (no wagering). Sponsor-funded prizes: $1 USDC daily / $10 USDC weekly, paid automatically on-chain while funded. Disclosed official-* house bots are ineligible. Results: /arena/results.

What it returns

GET /v1/pulse (paid, $0.02 USDC) returns compact JSON:

  • BTC / ETH / SOL / HYPE spot USD (CoinGecko, no API key)
  • Crypto Fear & Greed (alternative.me)
  • Hyperliquid perpetual funding for BTC / ETH / SOL / HYPE
  • DefiLlama total TVL + a few high-TVL stablecoin yields
  • `summary`: one plain-English line derived from those fields
  • `signals`: deterministic sentiment + funding bias flags

Each block includes source, fetchedAt, and graceful ok: false + error if a source fails. Live responses are cached in-memory for 60 seconds.

Also:

  • GET /v1/pulse/:asset — single ticker (BTC|ETH|SOL|HYPE), $0.02
  • GET /v1/spots — spots only + summary, $0.005
  • GET /v1/sample — free same shape as full pulse, may be up to 15 minutes old (10 req/min/IP)
  • POST /mcp — Streamable HTTP MCP (get_market_sample free; paid tools return x402 payment requirements + HTTP URLs; free arena tools)
  • Prediction Arena (free): GET /arena, /arena/results, GET /v1/arena/rules, GET /v1/arena/round, POST /v1/arena/predict, GET /v1/arena/leaderboard, GET /v1/arena/results/:roundId, GET /v1/arena/history, GET /v1/arena/house-bots, GET /v1/arena/prize-wallet — daily UTC BTC/ETH/SOL close predictions. Free entry, no wagering. official-* house bots are labeled and never prize-eligible. Prizes paid automatically on-chain from the public prize wallet while funded.
  • Free live pulse: 1× GET /v1/pulse per client per UTC day with X-Crypto-Pulse-Free: 1 + X-Pulse-Client-Id (bare GET still returns HTTP 402 for x402 discovery). Plus free stale GET /v1/sample.

Free discovery: GET /, GET /health, GET /llms.txt, GET /.well-known/x402, GET /.well-known/ai-catalog.json, GET /mcp/server-card, GET /openapi.json.

Why agents use this

Typical single-purpose Solana x402 market tools list around $0.001–$0.005 each (spots-only, Fear & Greed-only, funding-ish, DeFi-only). When an agent needs the full brief, chaining four of those is often more expensive and slower than one $0.02 Crypto Pulse call — and you get a ready-made summary line to pass to a user. See competitor table in MARKETING.md.

How payment works

  1. Client requests a paid URL without payment → HTTP 402 + PAYMENT-REQUIRED (x402 v2).
  2. Client signs a Solana USDC transfer (exact scheme) and retries with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE.
  3. Server asks the configured facilitator (CDP on mainnet live; x402.org on devnet) to verify + settle.
  4. On success → HTTP 200 + JSON (+ PAYMENT-RESPONSE).

Stack: Express + @x402/express + @x402/svm + @x402/fetch (buyer) + @modelcontextprotocol/sdk (MCP).

Setup (devnet)
