An Open Letter to the Ankr Community

ANKR ·

For most of our history, we've stayed quiet on the one subject this community asks about most: the $ANKR token. That silence ends today. Over the past few months, the team has been rebuilding how we approach $ANKR from the ground up, including removing a structural barrier in how we're organized that kept us too passive on the token. But what matters now is the shift in strategy, and we'd rather show it than promise it. So let's be direct about where we are, and where we're taking $ANKR next. Eight years ago, $ANKR launched. It reached a market cap high near $1.2B in 2021, then slid with the rest of the altcoin market as speculation dried up and capital rotated into memecoins, RWAs, and AI. External factors were real, but blaming them doesn't help this community. The honest truth is simpler: our strategy around the token was too passive. $ANKR has always had a genuine use case powering blockchain infrastructure, but the work around utility, demand, and how deeply the token is woven into our ecosystem needed a serious upgrade. We're not asking you to buy a story about a comeback. We're going to walk you through the machine we've been building. Ankr isn't a narrative looking for revenue, it's real infrastructure with real volume: 1T+ RPC requests per month flowing through our global node network 100% of $ANKR supply is already unlocked, with no inflation. Every new unit of demand hits a fixed supply and transmits cleanly to price, with no vesting cliffs diluting holders The upgrade is turning that traffic into token demand. Through Ankr Forge, a portion of RPC spend coming from our ecosystem partners is captured and used to buy $ANKR and provision liquidity. The result is a flywheel that no quest platform can copy, because it starts at the infrastructure layer: more RPC spend → more value captured → more $ANKR demand & rewards through Forge → more reason to build with Ankr infra → more usage It scales with the business, not with emissions. $ANKR holders have historically had few ways to participate in the ecosystems they help power. Ankr Forge changes that. Forge is where the infrastructure flywheel meets distribution. It’s the growth arm that connects $ANKR holders to partner ecosystems through on-chain and social missions. Why Forge is different from the dozens of quest platforms out there: We sit at the infra layer. We run the nodes for partner chains and can see real on-chain activity. So Forge is built to reward genuine usage, not the bot-and-dump farming that turns most incentive campaigns into a quick, hollow pump. The rewards are bought sustainably, not printed. This is the part we want to be fully transparent about. Hold a minimum amount of $ANKR to qualify. Complete Ankr and partner missions (our first partners will be announced soon) to earn Forge Points. Each month, a Forge Drop is distributed to qualifying holders. Your Points determine your share. Where the rewards come from. No emissions, no treasury money-printing: Direct partner contributions. Our first partners have each committed to provide missions that will drive rewards on Forge distributed through Forge Drops. Drops start in $ANKR and can expand to include partner tokens as campaigns grow. The Forge Vault: lock $ANKR for Points multipliers, so the holders most committed for the long term earn the most Points. Forge is kicking off with a limited scale, but very intentional purpose. Two partner campaigns involved with real, revenue-backed Drops may not be a number that moves the chart drastically on day one, and won’t pretend it is. What matters is the model: every new partner and every unit of RPC growth adds fuel to a rewards pool that is bought with real money, not conjured from inflation. We'd rather build something that compounds than stage a pump that fades. Ankr Forge is the first step, not the last. We're focused on giving $ANKR the utility, demand, and momentum it has lacked, grounded in infrastructure we already run at scale. Whether this flywheel spins fast is, honestly, up to all of us. If Forge sees real adoption, it's this community we'll have to thank. Complete missions. Light up the Forge. Let's build the engine together.
