#vanar $VANRY
I’ve been in this space long enough that the phrase “next big L1” barely registers anymore. After watching wave after wave of chains promise to replace Ethereum, most slide decks just blend together.
That’s why Vanar caught my attention — not because it shouts louder, but because the angle feels different.
What crypto keeps getting wrong isn’t raw tech. We already have fast chains, modular stacks, copied codebases. The real bottleneck is the application loop actual users doing real things that create repeat activity. Without that, a chain is just infrastructure waiting for a purpose.
A lot of ecosystems launch with big technical claims, but when you look at what’s actually running on them, it’s mostly speculative tokens talking to each other. Activity exists, but it’s circular. Nothing from outside the crypto bubble is feeding it.
#vanar positioning seems to start from the opposite direction. Instead of leading with TPS or architecture debates, the focus is on industries that already have massive user bases: entertainment, gaming, sports, digital experiences. These are areas where people already spend money digitally without thinking about wallets or gas. If blockchain shows up there, it has to be invisible and functional, not ideological.
That approach is more “let’s make this usable” than “let’s win a technical argument.” In a space full of projects discussing decentralization theory, working on distribution and real-world integrations almost feels boring but boring is often what scales.
I also think the valuation logic is different when a chain tries to anchor itself to existing commercial ecosystems instead of pure narrative cycles. It doesn’t remove risk nothing in crypto is “stable” in the traditional sense but it changes the question from “will people believe the story” to “can this plug into flows of users and transactions that already exist.”
