Build First, Market Later: Why Vanar Chose the Hard Path
Coming from the crypto world, most projects start with marketing and hope that the rest catches up. Instead, Vanar did the opposite and put focus on infrastructure, compliance, and design from day one.
This is important from a practical standpoint. Real adoption does not come from hype. Real adoption comes from infrastructure that actually works, processes large volumes of data, and works with real people. Over 60% of institutional pilots in 2024 failed because of poor infrastructure, not poor demand. This is a design problem, not a marketing problem.
The approach of Vanar may be tedious, yet it is thoughtful. Strong foundations are necessary. The focus should be on privacy, lawfulness, and decentralization at the same time, rather than sequentially.
It does not make sense until the system proves itself.
The more time passes, the more impactful good architecture is. The less it is needed.
