Apply with your domain. If your anchor passes the checks below, it is measured every 20 minutes like every other anchor, and its score card is published on-chain. An anchor that stops answering for a week is checked every six hours instead, until it answers again. Nothing else is asked of you: everything is read from your stellar.toml and the public network, and nothing here moves funds.
Applied 23d ago, checked 23d ago. A testnet anchor: its stellar.toml declares the testnet network. Apply in the testnet section.
Fix what failed and apply again: the same domain can be checked again 24 hours after its last check.
An anchor that only distributes someone else’s asset (USDC, for instance) has no asset of its own to age or count, so it is admitted on the first five checks.
