Alchemy MCP server

Lets your AI look up blockchain and crypto data through Alchemy's onchain APIs.

This is a helper from Alchemy, a company that runs blockchain data services. Once you connect it, your AI assistant can look up crypto and blockchain information for you instead of just talking about it. It is handy for anyone who works with crypto, web3, or onchain data and wants quick answers in plain chat.

What is an MCP server? The 30-second version

On its own, your AI can only chat with you using what it already learned. An MCP server is a small helper that gives your AI a new skill or a connection to an outside service. This one connects your AI to Alchemy, a service that holds blockchain and crypto data. So when you ask a question about onchain activity, your AI can reach out to Alchemy and bring back the answer.

What this MCP server does

You ask your AI a question about blockchain or crypto data. Your AI passes that request to the Alchemy MCP server. The server talks to Alchemy's blockchain APIs and pulls the information you asked for. Then your AI shows you the result in the chat, in normal words. You never have to touch any code or settings yourself.

Flow diagram: you ask your AI “What is the latest activity for this wallet?”, the Alchemy MCP server connects it to Alchemy, and you get back answer in plain words.

What it gives back to you

Before you start

What you need

An Alchemy account (you sign in when prompted)
An MCP-compatible AI client, such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, or VS Code Copilot

Good to know

It reads data from your Alchemy account and the blockchains it covers, so only connect it if you are comfortable sharing that access with your AI.

Install it with your AI

You don't install anything by hand. You copy one prompt, paste it into an AI that can work on your computer, and it checks, installs and connects the server for you, asking you when it needs something.

Sign in to get the install prompt

Members get a ready-made prompt that lets the Claude desktop app check Alchemy MCP server, install it and connect it for them, step by step.
