Today, May 3rd 2019, Ankr is listed on Bithumb exchange, after securing a winning spot in the third round of the recent Pickthumb vote.

The Ankr token is now listed on the top 3 exchanges of Korea: Bithumb, Upbit and Coinone to provide maximum liquidity on the Korean market.

The Ankr mainnet will launch on July 10th, 2019

In our recent community AMA, our COO Ryan Fang spoke about the upcoming Ankr mainnet release and ideas for the implementation of a dual token model.

Today we announce the launch date for our mainnet; July 10th, 2019!

The mainnet launch will be the kickoff for enterprises to provide their idle cloud resources in the Ankr application. The recent pilot and integrations with the Digital Ocean data centers have been implemented successfully and we are ready for the next step!

The Ankr Chain and token swap

Together with our mainnet release, we present the Ankr Chain and native token.

We already mentioned that our native token and the current ERC 20 token will co-exist together, each with its own purposes.

The token swap is optional!

The Ankr native token will run on the Ankr Chain mainnet and will be used to power the network, purchase services on the Ankr platform and incentivize compute resource providers. It can also be staked.

Therefore, the token swap is optional and is only required in case a user wants to utilize any service in the Ankr platform, including staking purposes.

The Ankr ERC 20 token will continue to provide the necessary liquidity on all the exchanges that listed us.

We will announce more information regarding the token swap model and staking details in a series of articles which are scheduled for release over the next few weeks. So stay tuned!
