pip install "bitcoin-mcp>=0.5.2"bitcoin-mcp needs a Bitcoin data backend. It auto-detects a local Bitcoin Core/Knots node from its cookie or RPC settings. Without a local node, set SATOSHI_API_URL to a compatible deployment.
Service status: the public Satoshi API previously hosted at
bitcoinsapi.comis paused and should not be treated as a working default. Use a local node or an explicitly configured compatible API.
Install status
Version 0.5.2 includes the MCP SDK 1.x compatibility constraint and explicit backend selection. Upgrade older installations to receive these fixes.
