Combine the Best Crypto API with Cline’s AI Coding Environment to Automate Smarter Trades—Faster

The world of crypto development just leveled up.

We're excited to announce a powerful new integration between Token Metrics and Cline (via the Roo Code extension)—bringing together the most advanced crypto API on the market and an AI-native coding environment purpose-built for building and testing crypto trading bots.

This partnership unlocks the ability to rapidly prototype, test, and launch intelligent trading strategies using real-time data from Token Metrics directly inside Cline, making it easier than ever for developers and traders to build in the crypto economy.

In this post, we’ll show you exactly how this works, walk through a working example using the Hyperliquid token, and explain why Token Metrics is the best crypto API to use with Cline for next-gen trading automation.

What Is Cline (Roo Code)?

Cline is an AI-first coding assistant designed to turn ideas into code through conversational prompts. With the Roo Code extension in Visual Studio Code, Cline transforms your IDE into an AI-native environment, allowing you to:

  • Write and debug code using natural language
  • Chain tools and APIs together with zero setup
  • Backtest and optimize strategies within a single flow

By integrating Token Metrics’ cryptocurrency API through its MCP (Multi-Client Protocol) server, developers can access real-time grades, trading signals, quant metrics, and risk insights—all through AI-driven prompts.

This combo of live crypto data and AI-native coding makes Cline one of the fastest ways to build trading bots today.

What Is Token Metrics MCP & API?

The Token Metrics API is the ultimate toolkit for crypto developers. It's a high-performance, developer-focused crypto API that gives you:

  • AI-powered Trader & Investor Grades
  • Buy/Sell Signals for bull/bear market detection
  • Support & Resistance Levels
  • Sentiment Analysis
  • Quantitative Metrics including ROI, performance vs. BTC, and more
  • Full Token Reports & Rankings

These features are now accessible via the MCP server—a gateway that standardizes access to Token Metrics data for AI agents, bots, dashboards, and more.

Whether you’re building a Telegram bot, a trading terminal, or a portfolio optimizer, the Token Metrics MCP setup with Cline makes it seamless.

Step-by-Step: Build a Trading Bot in Cline Using Token Metrics

Here’s a walkthrough of how you can build a complete AI-powered trading bot using Cline and the Token Metrics API.

1. Set Up Your Project in Visual Studio Code

Open VS Code and click “Open Folder.” Name your project something fun—like “Hype Bot.”
Then go to the Extensions tab, search for “Roo Code” (the advanced version of Cline), and install it.

2. Connect to the Token Metrics MCP Server

Once installed:

  • Click the MCP icon in the sidebar.
  • Choose “Edit Global MCP.”
  • Visit the official Token Metrics MCP Instructions and copy the full configuration block.
  • Paste it into your global MCP settings in Cline.

🎉 Now your environment is live, and you’re connected to the best crypto API on the market.

3. Explore the API with a Prompt

Inside Cline, simply prompt:

“Explore the Token Metrics API and analyze the Hyperliquid token.”

In seconds, the agent fetches and returns detailed insights—including investor grade, sentiment shifts, trading volume, and support/resistance levels for Hyperliquid. It even detects patterns not visible on typical trading platforms.

4. Generate a Trading Strategy

Next prompt:

“Create a trading strategy using this data.”

The agent responds with a full Python trading script based on AI signals from the API—complete with buy/sell logic, thresholds, and data pipelines.

5. Run Backtests and Analyze Performance

Cline automatically generates a backtest file and plots a performance chart.

For example:

  • Portfolio grew from $10,000 to $10,600
  • 27 trades, with an 18.5% win rate
  • Maximum drawdown of 14%
  • Realistic insights into risk-adjusted returns

This is real-time data, real code, real results—all built through a few smart prompts.

Why This Partnership Matters

đź”— Natural-Language-Powered Crypto Development

Token Metrics Revenue Sharing DAO: The Future of Crypto Investing

Token Metrics Team
5 mins

For years, Token Metrics has been the go-to platform for AI-powered crypto research, market insights, and advanced trading tools. These resources have helped thousands of investors navigate the complexities of the market. 

But access to insights is just one piece of the puzzle. True wealth-building in crypto takes it beyond just data and predictions—it’s about having a direct stake in the platforms shaping the future.

That’s why Token Metrics DAO is now live. This for-profit, community-driven ecosystem is designed to reward long-term TMAI stakers, provide real governance power, and offer exclusive investment access—all while keeping our industry-leading analytics and tools at the core of the experience.

Token Metrics: From Intelligence to Ownership

The expansion from a data-driven research platform to an integrated staking and governance ecosystem isn't an accident. We believe investors need more than just information. They need opportunities to actively participate in the upside.

But let’s be clear: Token Metrics isn’t abandoning its core mission. The platform’s cutting-edge analytics, AI-driven token ratings, and market insights remain at the heart of everything we do. 

What’s different is that now, the most committed members of our community can access even more benefits—without extra costs, and with a real financial stake in the platform’s success.

How the Token Metrics DAO Works

Token Metrics DAO takes the power of our research-driven investment tools and combines it with on-chain governance and rewards. This means that instead of just using Token Metrics insights, TMAI holders now can earn from and influence the platform itself.

By staking TMAI, users receive veTMAI, a token that unlocks:

  • A share in platform-generated revenue (subject to governance approval)
  • TMAI incentive rewards that increase based on lock-up duration
  • Access to premium Token Metrics tools—no more subscription fees
  • Governance rights to shape the platform’s future
  • Early access to high-potential launchpad projects

This system ensures that long-term participants benefit the most, creating an incentive for sustained engagement while keeping Token Metrics’ research tools accessible and valuable to all users.

Governance That Impacts Your Portfolio

Decentralized governance isn’t new in crypto, but few projects give users real influence over revenue and strategy. Token Metrics DAO changes that.

The first governance proposal is a vote on how platform revenue from on-chain swaps is distributed to veTMAI holders. This means that staking TMAI is not about earning yield—it’s about generating a real, platform-backed return.

Beyond revenue sharing, veTMAI holders will have a say in:

  • How to distribute or invest revenue earned by the DAO
  • What early-stage private sales to invest in
  • Upcoming projects for the public Launchpad

This is a long-term model that aligns platform growth with community incentives. The more successful Token Metrics becomes, the greater the potential benefits for TMAI holders.

Early Access to the Best Investment Opportunities

Access to high-quality research is valuable. But access to investments before the market catches on is game-changing.

Remember $LUCKY, the Token Metrics Launchpad project that soared 30x post-launch? A lot of investors only heard about it after it had mooned. 

With Token Metrics DAO, veTMAI holders gain early access to high-potential crypto projects before they go public—giving them the same first-mover advantage that has historically been reserved for VCs and insiders.

A Sustainable, Rewarding Model

While many crypto projects introduce staking without considering long-term sustainability. Token Metrics has designed a system that balances rewards with platform growth.

Instead of simply inflating token supply, Token Metrics DAO builds its rewards model on real economic activity—including subscription-free analytics access, early-stage investments, and community-governed revenue-sharing models.

This isn’t about replacing tools or research—it’s about expanding how crypto investors engage with their portfolios, platforms, and communities.

The Future of Crypto Investing Starts Today

Token Metrics DAO is not a new product feature—it’s an expansion of what we’ve always done best: empowering crypto investors with intelligence, opportunity, and now, ownership.

By staking TMAI today, users secure:

  • A long-term stake in the Token Metrics ecosystem
  • The ability to influence platform decisions
  • Early access to high-potential investments
  • Subscription-free analytics and research tools
  • A share of platform revenue (if governance approves it)

The tools remain. The insights remain. But for those who want to go beyond using Token Metrics—and start owning a piece of its future—the opportunity starts now.
