## Channel facts

- Endpoint: `https://sochain.com/mcp`
- Transports: `streamable-http`
- Auth: `none`
- Version: `0.1.0`

## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-10-22.

- **Endpoint Security**: 83/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present.
  - DNSSEC is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 68/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 2703 tokens (~135/item across 20 items; 20 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 6/100
  - Stability check failed: schema churn in the 7 days we've observed: 4 tool removals, 0 breaking changes, 0 auth/transport breaks, 0 additions.
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 20 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 21 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

## Install

### How do I install the SoChain MCP server?

## Common questions

### What is the SoChain MCP server?

SoChain is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.sochain/mcp. Live Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin and Zcash data: balances, transactions, blocks, fees, prices. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://sochain.com/mcp).

### Is the SoChain MCP server safe to use?

SoChain scores 74 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the SoChain MCP server expose?

SoChain exposes 20 tools: get_balance, get_address_summary, get_transaction_counts, get_transactions, get_unspent_outputs, and 15 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 2,507 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the SoChain MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to SoChain without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

### Is the SoChain MCP server still maintained?

SoChain is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 22 October 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
