Ankr Forge

Ankr Forge is Ankr's rewards and coordination platform for the $ANKR token. It connects $ANKR holders to partner ecosystems through mission-based earning, turning on-chain activity into Forge Points that count toward reward distributions and token generation event (TGE) allocations from projects across Ankr's partner network.

Forge gives $ANKR an active use case beyond its role in blockchain infrastructure: holding the token qualifies your wallet, and completing missions is what earns the points.

How Ankr Forge works

Forge runs on three core earning mechanisms:

  • Hold $ANKR — qualify for snapshot-based eligibility and earn points passively.
  • Complete missions across partner ecosystems — on-chain transactions, asset bridging, and app interactions.
  • Join partner campaigns deployed directly inside Forge to drive engagement ahead of a partner's TGE.

Holding $ANKR qualifies your wallet; completing missions is what earns the points.

Forge Points and Forge Drops

Every mission you complete earns Forge Points. A Forge Drop is a reward distribution tied to a campaign or partner: holding $ANKR determines whether your wallet is eligible, and your Forge Points determine your share of the drop. See Points & Rewards for the full model.

Built on Ankr infrastructure

Unlike generic incentive platforms, Forge is tied directly into Ankr's infrastructure layer — Ankr already runs node infrastructure for many partner chains. That connection is designed to bring in real, sustained users rather than one-time airdrop farmers.

Roadmap: Forge Vault and ValidatorFi

Two additional products are planned to expand Forge:

  • Forge Vault — lock $ANKR for reward multipliers and mission qualification. Points scale with deposit size and lock duration.
  • ValidatorFistake with supported validators to earn yield alongside Forge points.

Frequently asked questions

What is Ankr Forge?

Ankr Forge is Ankr's rewards and coordination platform for the $ANKR token. It connects $ANKR holders to partner ecosystems through mission-based earning, turning on-chain activity into Forge Points that count toward reward distributions and TGE allocations from projects across Ankr's partner network.

How do I earn Forge Points?

Three ways: hold $ANKR to earn passively, complete missions across partner ecosystems (on-chain transactions, asset bridging, app interactions), and join partner campaigns deployed inside Forge.

What can I do with Forge Points?

Forge Points count toward reward distributions and TGE allocations. When you're eligible for a Forge Drop, your allocation is proportional to the Forge Points you've earned relative to other eligible participants.

What are Forge Vault and ValidatorFi?

They are two planned expansions. Forge Vault lets you lock $ANKR for reward multipliers and mission qualification, with points scaling by deposit size and lock duration. ValidatorFi lets you stake with supported validators to earn yield alongside Forge points.
