Kerdos X402 Mcp
Fetch crypto market intelligence from an agent with micropayments in USDC on Base via x402 instead of a traditional API subscription.
Overview
kerdos-x402-mcp is an MCP server for the Idea phase that provides crypto market intelligence with USDC micropayments on Base through the x402 protocol per tool call.
What is this MCP server?
- Crypto market intelligence tools with x402 pay-per-call on Base mainnet
- Per tool call cost documented as $0.01–$0.06 USDC
- stdio npm package kerdos-x402-mcp; optional KERDOS_X402_BASE_URL override
- Requires EVM private key to sign USDC transferWithAuthorization payments
- Tool calls cost $0.01–$0.06 USDC each (per environment variable description)
- Server version 0.1.0; stdio npm package kerdos-x402-mcp
What problem does it solve?
You want agent-driven crypto market data without committing to another monthly API, but standard MCP servers rarely support on-chain pay-per-call.
Who is it for?
Solo builders prototyping crypto analytics or x402 billing flows who already operate a Base-funded wallet and accept per-call costs.
Skip if: Builders who refuse to put signing keys near agents, need enterprise compliance data, or want free unlimited market APIs.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Your agent can invoke intelligence tools that settle in USDC on Base at roughly one to six cents per call via x402-signed payments.
- Per-call crypto market intelligence responses settled via x402
- Hands-on reference for wiring agent workflows to on-chain pay-per-use APIs

Journey fit
Idea research fits exploratory market reads before you build trading bots, dashboards, or crypto-adjacent products. Research subphase covers paid per-call intelligence where you are still probing data quality and cost—not operating production trading infra.
How it compares
x402 micropayment crypto data MCP, not a traditional API-key market data subscription skill.
