BICScan MCP: Real-Time Blockchain Risk Assessment in Claude

Stop switching between your IDE and blockchain scanners to verify address safety. This MCP server brings comprehensive blockchain risk analysis directly into your Claude conversations, powered by BICScan's real-time threat intelligence.

What This Solves

You're building DeFi protocols, analyzing smart contracts, or investigating suspicious transactions. Every time you encounter a wallet address, domain, or dApp URL, you face the same workflow interruption: copy the address, open a blockchain scanner, paste it in, wait for results, then context-switch back to your analysis.

BICScan MCP eliminates this friction entirely. Get instant risk scores (0-100) and detailed asset information for any blockchain entity without leaving your conversation flow.

Key Capabilities

Instant Risk Scoring: Query any crypto address, domain, or dApp URL and receive a numerical risk assessment in seconds. A score of 100 means run—fast.

Comprehensive Asset Analysis: Pull complete portfolio breakdowns for any address across multiple blockchain networks. See exactly what tokens and cryptocurrencies are held.

Real-Time Intelligence: Every query hits BICScan's live API, so you're getting current threat data, not stale cached results.

Multi-Entity Support: Whether you're checking a suspicious wallet, verifying a DeFi protocol domain, or investigating a dApp URL, one tool handles it all.

Perfect For These Workflows

Smart Contract Auditing: Quickly verify the risk profile of addresses interacting with contracts you're reviewing. Spot potential bad actors before they become problems.

DeFi Research: When analyzing yield farming protocols or liquidity pools, instantly assess the reputation of major holders and protocol controllers.

Incident Response: During security investigations, rapidly triage multiple addresses to identify the highest-risk entities requiring immediate attention.

Due Diligence: Before integrating with third-party protocols or accepting large transactions, verify counterparty addresses in real-time.

Getting Started

The setup is deliberately straightforward—choose your preferred Python environment:

With uv (recommended for active development):

git clone https://github.com/ahnlabio/bicscan-mcp

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bicscan": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": ["--directory", "/path/to/bicscan-mcp", "run", "bicscan-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "BICSCAN_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

With uvx (zero-clone installation):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bicscan": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["--from", "git+https://github.com/ahnlabio/bicscan-mcp", "bicscan-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "BICSCAN_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

With Docker (isolated deployment):

make  # builds the image

Then configure with Docker runtime in your MCP config.

API Key Setup

Grab your free API key from bicscan.io:

1. Register and verify your account
2. Create a new app in your profile
3. Copy the API key to your MCP configuration
4. Restart Claude Desktop

That's it. No complex authentication flows or rate limit negotiations.

Why This Matters

Blockchain security analysis shouldn't require juggling multiple tools and browser tabs. When you're deep in code review or incident response, every context switch costs you mental bandwidth and introduces opportunities for missed threats.

This MCP server keeps you in the flow while ensuring you never deploy code or execute transactions without proper risk assessment. It's the security-conscious developer's shortcut to staying protected without slowing down.
