Short answer
How can I use AI to check crypto liquidity?
Your AI client pulls real-time order book snapshots and spreads from Amberdata to measure market depth. It also calculates volume-weighted averages to help you spot price stability. You get a clear view of slippage risks and market thickness.
The outcomes.
What your analysis produces.
Your AI turns raw data into these specific insights.
DEPTH
Order book snapshots
The AI pulls current snapshots to show where buy and sell walls sit. This helps you see how much volume exists at specific price levels.
FRICTION
Spread and slippage
By checking the bid-ask spread, your agent identifies the cost of entering a position. It flags when liquidity is too thin for your trade size.
VALUE
VWAP and TWAP data
The AI calculates volume-weighted averages to find the true market price. This helps you determine if current prices are outliers.
HUMAN
Execution decisions
The AI provides the math and the data. You use these results to decide when to enter or exit a trade.

How this task behaves.
- 01
Can my AI execute trades for me?

- 02
Can the AI change my order settings?
No. This MCP is read-only. It provides data for analysis but cannot interact with your accounts or change any settings.
- 03
How real-time is the data?
The AI pulls data using the tools provided, which fetch current snapshots and live averages from the Amberdata API.
- 04
Does the AI store my API keys?
No. Vinkius manages the connection and keeps your credentials encrypted. Your AI client only sees the data returned by the tools.
- 05
Can I use this with any AI client?
Yes, you can use this with any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.
