Ankr \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a>also stated that over the next two years, it will give more than $10 million in grants to support the development of a distributed supercomputer and reward the creation of tutorials and teaching surrounding Web3 development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Ankr is working to improve the autonomy and decentralization principles that are critical to the development of blockchain technology<\/a>.” We believe that the crypto economy requires a decentralized and trustless network in which individual operators are rewarded for supporting blockchain networks and developing better products,\u201d said Josh Neuroth, Ankr's Head of Product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ankr has been a traditional service provider since 2018, deploying complete nodes and validator nodes on behalf of users and networks, as well as providing hosting, public RPCs, APIs<\/a>, and staking services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ankr has released more than 25,000 node end-points to 75,000 developers and handled more than $1 billion in crypto transactions weekly. It now services more than 50 blockchains and L2 solutions. With over 200 node operators contributing to decentralization, Ankr's staking node infrastructure has a total locked value of over $500 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ankr V2 will perform the same functions as a cloud computing platform, but it will be created for and in accordance with Web3 principles, encouraging the establishment of a dispersed worldwide network of node providers to construct a fast global supercomputer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also gives service providers a straightforward way to connect to nodes, storage, databases, and a wide range of blockchain application services. The new open marketplace, which is powered by the ANKR token<\/a>, will allow node providers to easily monetize their infrastructure and scale their operations in order to fulfill the rapidly growing demand for Web3 services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The protocol has been under testing with Fantom and Polygon as a proof-of-concept, completing more than 20 billion RPC calls each week and on schedule to complete 80 billion calls monthly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All major blockchains, including Ethereum, Solana, Polkadot, Binance Smart Chain, and others, will now be supported by the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This network of nodes also supports Ankr's Public RPC (Remote Procedure Call), which allows developers to create highly functional DApps such as MetaMask or DeFi protocols that require multi-chain data and interactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ankr's infrastructure has already benefited initiatives like Spirit Swap, Zapper Fi, and Andrew Cronje's NFT <\/a>marketplace Artion on Fantom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
