Ankr Network proposes a novel blockchain solution that addresses the current barrier to mass business adoption:
- Resource-efficient mining scheme based on Proof of Useful Work
- Scalable Blockchain framework through Plasma sidechains and sharding
- Native Oracle service connecting real-world data of existing Internet solutions to on-chain entities
With this piece of technology, Ankr is able to bridge the gap between the real world and the blockchain. The Ankr’s permissionless blockchain framework can support an ecosystem of decentralized autonomous applications. Team envisions that these applications include global P2P payment system, personal credit system, and most importantly, tokenization of real-world assets that were once illiquid (sublease rental contract, real estate ownership, art piece, wine, etc.).
Whitepaper
The whitepaper is scheduled for June 2018. I will wait for it before adding more comments to the article.
Roadmap
Key points
- Proof of Useful Work (PoUW) Consensus Protocol

Verdict
According to roadmap, Whitepaper will be out in June 2018. Private sale is ongoing and it looks like complete allocation is already sold. This is how things are happening in crypto these days. Will keep an eye on this project and come back once whitepaper is out. Based on funds collected in presale I expect to see team expanding and MVP delivered this summer as promised.
