# Ankr

## What is Ankr?

[Ankr](https://www.ankr.com/) is the leading Web3 infrastructure company. They notably operate a global network of RPC (Remote Procedure Call) nodes that serve requests coming from thousands of developers and applications.

[Ankr also helped Chiliz create Chiliz Chain](https://www.ankr.com/case-studies/chiliz/), a custom fork of the BNB Smart Chain (itself a fork of go-Ethereum).

## What this means for you

Chiliz Chain is of course among the blockchains that Ankr supports.

[Ankr’s Chiliz RPC](https://www.ankr.com/rpc/chiliz) is a vital service that connects developers' wallets, command-line interfaces, and dApps to the Chiliz mainnet so they can execute read and write interactions.
