Anchor is an open source implementation of the Secret Shared Validator (SSV) protocol, written in Rust and maintained by Sigma Prime.

The Anchor Docs contains information for users and developers. Instructions for how to compile/build and run this client are all contained within this book.

Anchor maintains two permanent branches:

• stable: Always points to the latest stable release.
  • This is ideal for most users.
• unstable: Used for development, contains the latest PRs.
  • Developers should base their PRs on this branch.

Anchor welcomes contributors.
