Most blockchains don’t actually store your files they store links to external servers like IPFS or AWS. When those servers fail or files disappear, you’re stuck with broken links. That’s the core problem Vanar was built to fix.
Vanar is a Layer 1 blockchain that stores entire files directly on-chain through Neutron, an AI-powered compression system. Instead of pointing to external storage, Neutron compresses files up to 500:1 and embeds them as “Neutron Seeds” right into the blockchain. A 25MB video becomes 50KB without losing what matters. These seeds aren’t just stored—they’re queryable by smart contracts and permanently accessible.
Why does this approach matter? Because centralized infrastructure fails. When AWS crashed in April 2025, it froze Binance, KuCoin, and MEXC for 23 minutes. With Vanar, there’s no external dependency—the data lives where the consensus lives. Nothing points outside the chain.
The technical setup is solid. Vanar runs on Google Cloud’s renewable energy nodes, making it carbon-neutral. Transaction fees stay fixed around $0.0005. Full EVM compatibility means Ethereum developers can deploy without code changes. The network has logged over 11.9 million transactions and 1.56 million unique addresses since launch.
VANRY is the native token securing the network through staking and powering all transactions. Partnerships include NVIDIA for AI infrastructure, Google Cloud for node operations, and Worldpay for payment integration. The project targets AI agents needing persistent memory, DeFi protocols requiring verifiable documents, gaming applications, and tokenized real-world assets where proof of ownership can’t rely on fragile links. It’s infrastructure for applications that simply can’t afford to go dark when cloud providers stumble.
