2022-12-30 18:12:56 Last night we detected an issue causing intermittent failures on our token explorer, resulting in errors being generated when trying to fetch the data on the ankr staking platform.

Our devs quickly detected the issue, and promptly fixed the bugs, meaning the platform is now operational again.

There is, however, one bug remaining on the user interface that means displayed stakes may not match the real amounts staked.

Our devs are currently working on this and a fix is imminent. Until then, rest assured this is purely a visual glitch and all stakes are correct and secure. Open / Comment

2022-12-29 17:17:44 Due to a sudden unusually high traffic of ankrBNB unstakes, part of the validators that process our transactions couldn't handle the requested liquidity in due time, resulting in withdrawals taking more than the usual 10 days ETA.

All these requests will be processed tonight (December 30, 2022 early morning). After tomorrow, withdrawal times shall once again stick to our basic unstake ETA of 7-10 days.

Thank you for your support and patience Open / Comment

2022-12-22 13:50:43 BlockchainReporter supporting how Ankr dealt with the aBNBc token exploit:

"Despite the fact that Ankr has already done a reasonably good job of handling the situation, the platform is currently working to ensure that all loose ends are tied and that all impacted users have been reimbursed for their losses."

2022-12-21 20:17:33 The airdrop to Wombat BNBx LP has been executed to wallets that held directly, and indirectly BNBx LP.
80% were distributed in ankrBNB tokens, and 20% in BNBx tokens, which were exactly the same conditions as stkBNB LP airdrop.

Wallets that were classified as corner cases will be assessed on a case-by-case basis (e.g. withdrawal observed after aBNBc exploit).

Wallets that provided BNB lending and aBNBc collateral on Midas Capital's Ankr isolated lending pool will receive today a BNB and ankrBNB airdrop of 100% of the amount provided at the time of aBNBc exploit.

Given the size of the pool, a new Ankr isolated lending pool will be created with the support of Midas Capital. Both teams agreed that this would be the most effective way to restart the pool.

Wallets that directly or indirectly held Wombat BNBx LP will receive an airdrop later this week compensating 50% of the tokens they held.

Over the last couple of weeks, Ankr has consulted diverse opinions from key stakeholders impacted by aBNBc exploit in the BNBCHAIN ecosystem.
