Getting Started with Ankr Forge

Setting up Ankr Forge takes four steps: sign in, link any social accounts your missions need, browse campaigns, and start earning Forge Points.

Step 1 — Sign in​

Connect an existing wallet — MetaMask, Coinbase, WalletConnect, or TrustWallet — or continue with a Google, X, or Discord account.

Signing in with an account automatically creates an Ankr Forge Wallet for you. When prompted, save your backup key right away — it's the only way to recover that wallet.

Step 2 — Link social accounts​

Some missions require a linked social account rather than a connected wallet. From your dashboard, select Link Social Accounts to open the Linked Accounts panel, where you can see your current wallet address alongside connection status for X, Google, and Discord.

To complete an X-based mission (for example, Follow Ankr on X), select Connect next to X and authorize the connection. Once linked, the panel shows your handle with an option to Disconnect if you ever need to unlink it. Google and Discord work the same way.

Step 3 — Browse campaigns​

The Campaigns section on your dashboard lists active and upcoming campaigns. Use View all or the arrows to browse, or select Campaign List in the top nav to see everything available.

Step 4 — Select and begin missions​

Open a campaign to see its missions, or scroll to Earn Points on your dashboard for a combined feed of every mission across Ankr and its partners. Each mission shows a status — Not started, In progress, or Complete — and a point value. Tap into a mission to begin it.

Match your wallet address for on-chain missions​

Use the same address you linked to Forge

For any on-chain mission, the transaction must be completed using the same wallet address linked to your Forge account. Points are tracked per address, so completing the on-chain action from a different wallet means the mission won't register as complete — even if the transaction itself succeeds.

We recommend using an EOA wallet (such as MetaMask) as your connected address for on-chain missions. Before starting, confirm the address shown in your Linked Accounts panel matches the wallet you're about to transact from.

On-chain missions run across the networks Ankr supports. Once you're set up, see Points & Rewards for how points convert into a share of a Forge Drop.

Frequently asked questions​

How do I sign in to Ankr Forge?​

Connect a wallet (MetaMask, Coinbase, WalletConnect, or TrustWallet) or continue with a Google, X, or Discord account. Signing in with an account automatically creates an Ankr Forge Wallet — save your backup key when prompted, as it's the only way to recover that wallet.

Which wallet should I use for on-chain missions?​

On-chain mission transactions must use the same wallet address linked to your Forge account — points are tracked per address, so a different wallet won't register even if the transaction succeeds. Ankr recommends an EOA wallet such as MetaMask. Confirm the address in your Linked Accounts panel matches before starting a mission.

Some missions verify a linked social account — X, Google, or Discord — instead of an on-chain action. Link these from the Link Social Accounts panel on your dashboard.

What do the mission statuses mean?​

Each mission shows one of three statuses — Not started, In progress, or Complete — along with the point value you'll earn for completing it.
