Ankr (ANKR) is a blockchain infrastructure provider that gives developers fast, reliable access to many networks. Its decentralised remote procedure call (RPC) service lets apps read from and write to dozens of blockchains without running their own nodes, and it also offers staking services. Founded in 2017, Ankr runs a distributed network of nodes to avoid relying on a single provider. ANKR is the native token and is used for governance, staking and to pay for premium services on the platform. Developers use Ankr for DeFi apps, wallets, NFT projects and data tools.
