Basics

  • Based in:
  • From the DIA (who is a partner) October update (23-10-2020):

"An infrastructure platform and marketplace for Web3-stack deployment & decentralised nodes."

History

Audits & Exploits

"On December 2, 2022 Ankr lost $5M as a result of a private key compromise which was used to upgrade aBNBc contract with a malicious minting function. It was a particularly nasty combination of an offchain private key hack and an on-chain contract upgrade which resulted in quadrillions of aBNBc tokens minted on BSC. Attackers were particularly nasty by leaving the minting function exposed inviting a barrage of copycat exploiters. Interestingly a group of traders made three times the profit than the original Ankr attackers by exploiting a slow price oracle to borrow $19M worth of Helios stablecoin. Helio lost $19M as a result of a delayed price oracle which allowed traders to borrow stablecoin with worthless aBNBc token."

Utility

"ANKR token is already used on the Ankr node and API market as a payment method for hosting fees. But with the launch of Stkr, we have reimagined our token utility!

The ANKR token is the only way to use the Stkr protocol, but users are heavily rewarded from being active in the ecosystem in order to gain rewards. Stakers become stakeholders, either providing computing power to our existing network or deciding on the future direction of the platform in governance elections to strengthen the network."

Partners 

"DIA and Ankr collaborate to further decentralize primary sourced data collection in various blockchains."

"Ankr: The partnership, agreed in December 2019, will see Fetch.ai further grows its network. Ankr will provide a node hosting application which enables users to run Fetch.ai master nodes."

"Ankr has been essential to Blockchain at Berkeley to provide consistent uptime for a variety of nodes and going above and beyond individual support 24/7."

  • It is one of the whitelisted institutions of the TRON DAO Reserve (TDR), which governs the overcollateralization of USDD (4-11-2022).
