Anchor Protocol (ANC) crypto is primarily a DeFi lending and borrowing platform, founded by Terraform Labs' Daniel Shin and Do Kwon, which offers up to 19.5% yield on stablecoin deposits.
Anchor offers principal-protected stablecoins as collateral, and the borrowers can deposit Terra (LUNA) without losing control of their assets. At the same time, it is beneficial for the lenders as well as they can earn interest on their TerraUSD (UST) investments.
Anchor protocol has been showing signs of revival after Terra's collapse, and over the past week, it finished as one of the top gainers of the week, registering gains of over 32.4%, according to CoinGecko.

On 23 May, ANC's crypto has been witnessing a rally of over 150% and a significant volume rally of over 850%.
Why is ANC crypto rallying?
ANC crypto's rally seems to be on the back of its announcement made on 21 May that it would be bridging their bETH tokens of Terra to Ethereum. The users can send their bETH tokens from the Terra protocol to Ethereum and swap them for stETH, thereby allowing the users to earn staking yields of over 3.8% APR.
Termed the savings protocol, the ANC crypto allows its depositors to earn passive income while keeping volatility at bay to ensure stable returns. This helps in the increased adoption of UST and, subsequently, the adoption of the Terra project in DeFi, as per its whitepaper.

However, it's still significantly far away from its ATH of US$8.23, which it achieved on 21 May 2022.

While the rallies over the past week have held ANC crypto in good stead, as a market participant, it's critical to note that crypto prices can change at any given point of time, as we witnessed recently. Therefore, one must be careful to do their research before entering the space.
