MCP Servers for Crypto Trading — What They Are and How to Use Them

What Is MCP?

Model Context Protocol is an open standard developed by Anthropic that lets AI assistants connect to external tools natively. Instead of writing custom integration code, you install an MCP server and Claude uses it directly — no middleware, no boilerplate.
