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.
  • ValidatorFi — stake 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.
