AnchorLink
What is Anchor and AnchorLink
Anchor is a standalone blockchain Wallet and Authenticator available on most desktop and mobile platforms. It allows users to securely store their private keys and perform on-chain transactions requested by external applications. These external applications could be web apps, mobile apps, or games built with this plugin for the Unity platform.
Anchor utilizes the anchor-link SDK to send and receive eosio-signing-request formatted message. All communication between the application and the user is encrypted and no private keys or other identifiable information (except for the on-chain account name) is trasmitted in this process. Other wallets built for Antelope-based blockchains can also adopt these protocols to allow their users an easy way to integrate into external applications.
Availability
Anchor is available for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android. It is free to download and use.
If users already have an account they can import it and use the app for free. Users can create or purchase accounts through any service. Anchor itself also offers paid account creation for users who do not have an account and are unsure how to create one.
All SDKs related to Anchor are free and open source.
