history

Project history and usage

Anchor Wallet is an open-source desktop wallet and authenticator for Antelope-based blockchains, developed by Greymass.

Project history

Anchor is developed by members of the Greymass team as an open-source desktop wallet and authenticator. It originated in the EOSIO ecosystem and now describes itself in terms of the broader Antelope blockchain family.

Adoption history

Anchor expanded from its EOSIO framing to support nearly every Antelope-based blockchain, including EOS, Telos, and WAX. Desktop packages have been published for macOS, Windows, and Linux, with hardware-wallet support and integration into external applications through EOSIO Signing Requests.

How it is used

Users create or import blockchain accounts, keep private keys in locally encrypted AES-256 storage, transfer tokens, manage resources, participate in governance, and approve signing requests from compatible external applications. Ledger hardware wallets can be used for additional key isolation.

Why package nerds care

Anchor is notable as a cross-platform, open-source desktop wallet distributed in native installer formats while keeping private keys locally encrypted. Its support for multiple Antelope networks, Ledger devices, and signing requests makes it both an end-user wallet and an authentication component for blockchain applications.

Timeline

  • EOSIO era: Anchor was established as a desktop wallet and authenticator for EOSIO networks.
  • Antelope era: Project language and network support broadened to the Antelope ecosystem.
  • Current desktop release line: Official packages are supplied for macOS, Windows, and Linux.
