ChangeNOW MCP

Overview

ChangeNOW published io.changenow/crypto-swap to the official MCP Registry on 2026-09-01; version 2.1.1 is a remote server at mcp.changenow.io/mcp. The registry entry reads "Quote, create and track cross-chain crypto swaps. Non-custodial exchange, no account, no KYC." A live tools/list call returned tools including list_assets, which maps a ticker to the canonical ticker.network id before quoting. ChangeNOW itself is a long-running instant-swap exchange.

yes — list_assets returned in 211 ms

Live probe verifies the interface responds — not what the tools do, their safety, or their output quality. The call is one read-only tool named by this server's own list (list_/get_/search_, no mutating verb anywhere in the name, no required arguments and none that look like a key, an address or an amount), asked once a day with no arguments. Not asked is not a failure.
