The Ankr network was founded in 2017 at Berkley University. The network’s aim is to provide an innovative blockchain solution that leverages idle computing power from data centres and individual devices. The platform facilitates the sharing of resources at an affordable rate and provides organisations the ability to profit from spare computing power not currently being utilised. The native cryptocurrency of the network is the ANKR altcoin which can now be easily traded on crypto exchanges. The network was founded by Chandler Song and Ryan Fang. As of June 2021, there was a circulating supply of just under 7bn ANKR tokens, with a total maximum supply of 10bn coins available. The network supports more than 40 blockchain protocols for staking or development purposes and allows developers to easily build Web3 products with API access to major blockchain and decentralised finance protocols.
