I keep two “versions” of vanry in my head, otherwise it’s easy to mess up.
On Vanar Chain : vanry is the gas. It’s what pays for every transfer, mint, and smart contract call. If you do not have native VANRY, the transaction simply will not go through. Fees are paid in native VANRY, one token type for the network.
On ethereum or polygon : vanry is an ERC-20 token. It follows the ERC-20 standard from 2015, so it fits into common wallets and DeFi tools without drama.
Small real thing I’ve seen, someone sent ERC-20 VANRY to a non EVM address and thought it vanished. It didn’t, but it got stuck until the correct route was used.
Native vanry runs Vanar. Wrapped vanry helps it move.
