crypto.token-info

On-chain token metrics by contract address (via GeckoTerminal, free/keyless): name, symbol, decimals, on-chain USD price, FDV, market cap, total reserve in USD, 24h volume, total + normalized supply, image, and CoinGecko id. Distinct from crypto.token-price (CoinGecko aggregate spot) — this is DEX-derived on-chain data for any token across 100+ networks.

Overview

The token info API is a pay-per-call crypto endpoint built for AI agents and autonomous software. On-chain token metrics by contract address (via GeckoTerminal, free/keyless): name, symbol, decimals, on-chain USD price, FDV, market cap, total reserve in USD, 24h volume, total + normalized supply, image, and CoinGecko id.

There is no signup and no API key. An agent (or any HTTP client) hits the endpoint, receives an x402 "402 Payment Required" challenge, signs a sub-cent USDC payment on Base or Solana, and retries — the data comes back on the paid request. That makes it a drop-in token info data source for an agent tool-use loop, an MCP host, or a backend that needs crypto data on demand without onboarding to yet another vendor portal.

Use cases

• Give an AI agent live token info lookups as a tool, with no API key to provision or rotate — the agent pays per call from a wallet you fund.
• Enrich records in a data pipeline with crypto data, paying only for the calls you actually make instead of a monthly seat.
• Ground LLM answers in authoritative crypto data to cut hallucination, then optionally request a signed response for verifiability.
• Prototype against the live token info API in minutes using the free trial call, then flip to per-call x402 payment for production with no code change.

Parameters

Code samples

# 1. Probe with no auth → 402 envelope with PaymentRequirements
curl -sS 'https://2s.io/api/crypto/token-info?network=example&address=example'

# 2. Sign + retry with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE:
curl -sS 'https://2s.io/api/crypto/token-info?network=example&address=example' \
  -H 'PAYMENT-SIGNATURE: <base64-json-payload>'

# Or use the canonical runner (handles probe → sign → retry):
#   EVM_PRIVATE_KEY=0x... node --env-file=.env.local \
#     --experimental-strip-types scripts/x402-pay.ts \
#     'https://2s.io/api/crypto/token-info?network=example&address=example'

import { TwoS } from '@2sio/sdk'

const client = new TwoS({
  privateKey: process.env.EVM_PRIVATE_KEY as `0x${string}`,
})

const result = await client.crypto.tokenInfo({
  "network": "example",
  "address": "example"
})

console.log('endpoint:', result.endpoint)
console.log('cost:', result.costUsd, 'USDC')
console.log('tx:', result.settlement?.txHash)
console.log('data:', result.data)

import os
from twosio import TwoS

client = TwoS(private_key=os.environ["EVM_PRIVATE_KEY"])

result = client.crypto.token_info(network="example", address="example")

print("endpoint:", result.endpoint)
print("cost:", result.cost_usd, "USDC")
print("tx:", (result.settlement or {}).get("tx_hash"))
print("data:", result.data)

// 1. Add @2sio/mcp to your MCP host config (Claude Desktop example below).
//    EVM_PRIVATE_KEY funds x402 payments per call.

FAQ

Do I need an API key to use the token info API?

No. crypto.token-info is x402-native — there is no signup and no API key. Your client makes the call, receives a 402 with payment requirements, signs a USDC payment, and retries. Funds come from a wallet you control.

How much does the token info API cost?

$0.00144 USDC per call, charged per request. There are no monthly fees, seats, or minimums — you pay only for the calls you make.

Can I try the token info API for free first?

Yes. Add ?trial=1 (or the header X-2s-Trial: 1) to get a free real call per endpoint per hour, so you can verify the response shape before wiring payment.

Which networks and tokens are supported?

USDC on Base (via EIP-3009 transferWithAuthorization) or Solana (SPL transfer), using the open x402 payment protocol.

How do I call crypto.token-info from an AI agent or MCP host?

Use @2sio/sdk (TypeScript), 2sio (Python), or the @2sio/mcp server for any MCP host — each handles the probe → sign → retry loop for you. See the code samples on this page.
