Why isn't stellar doing anything about establishing anchors?

Why isn't stellar doing anything about establishing anchors. We need more anchors on the network but there just aren't any entrepreneurs willing to take on the task because the incentives are low. They offered grants through the partnership program but then took it away. I'm ready to establish 10-20 anchors for the most transacted currencies but now can't do so because of lack of grants. I have my team in place ready to go to make this happen, we just lack the funding.

I'd like to port my dapp from Ethereum to Stellar, but I can't do so if there is not a single decent anchor that offers a widget for fiat on/offramp from/to credit card + bank account... Haven't looked into Stellar since 3 years now, but it all seems pretty dead to me...

MaikVogt Why would you need an anchor for that? I think what you need is a payment processor (credit cards payments) and for that you need an exchange which there are lots of options from different countries out there and they aren't specifically for Stellar, most of them handle multiple blockchains
