The so-called full-chain AI narrative is just a false fire. I ran nodes for three days before understanding what Vanar is really doing.

Recently, the hype around AI concepts has made people anxious. Any computing power leasing platform can be praised to the heavens, as if buying a graphics card could automatically generate AGI. I originally approached reading Vanar's white paper with a critical mindset, wanting to see what this patchwork was all about, and I ended up being proven wrong while deploying verification nodes on the testnet. What these people are doing is not the current popular computing power distribution but rather a more fundamental data semanticization. The current blockchain is like a dark forest for AI agents, with all the data in smart contracts being cold, hard binary. For AI to understand these transaction records, it first has to go through an extremely inefficient indexer. Vanar attempts to embed semantic tags directly into the underlying structure of the chain, a concept somewhat akin to adding HTML standards to the internet back in the day. I spent an afternoon uploading a segment of game asset data containing complex logic and was astonished to find that I could directly allow a simple AI model on the chain to recognize this as a "consumable item" without using external oracles.

Unlike Near, which abstracts the chain to lower the user threshold, Vanar is lowering the threshold for AI to "read" the blockchain. However, I also discovered a significant issue during stress testing: when concurrent requests reached their peak, the block confirmation time with semantic parsing had a noticeable delay. It seems that enriching data at the bottom layer has a huge impact on node performance, which may also be the reason they have not yet widely promoted the mainnet application; the technical debt has not been fully repaid. Compared to ICP's heavy architecture that tries to fit the entire internet into the blockchain, Vanar's lightweight approach of being a "data translator" actually has a greater chance of landing. Right now, its candlestick chart looks eerily quiet, but this is precisely the norm during a technical accumulation period. For those gamblers shouting about dozens of times returns all day, this kind of value that requires reading code to understand is like an ancient text, but for us old hands who have been rolling around in this circle for many years, this kind of non-consensus asset that can solve pain points is often more worth placing a bit of pocket money on than the hot topics that everyone is shouting about.
