#vanar $VANRY @Vanarchain
Vanar Chain’s VANRY token is no longer the gaming-focused asset it was under its Virtua (TVK) roots—it has fully pivoted into an AI-native Layer 1 designed to onboard mainstream users through entertainment, brands, and now on-chain artificial intelligence. The project’s two core technical pillars, Neutron and Kayon, are already live: Neutron enables 500:1 semantic compression, allowing large files like PDFs and legal documents to be stored directly on-chain with every storage action burning VANRY, while Kayon functions as a reasoning engine that lets smart contracts interpret and act on that stored data autonomously. Supply concerns, often a bearish talking point, are largely overstated—roughly 81.5% of the 2.4 billion max supply is already in circulation, meaning the risk of massive unlocks tanking the price has mostly passed. Recent momentum includes a 64% price spike to $0.0102 in January 2026 following the AI stack launch, alongside confirmed integrations with Worldpay for immutable dispute receipts and longstanding backing from Google Cloud and NVIDIA. The roadmap for 2026 focuses on Axon for automated AI workflows, Flows for conditional smart contract logic, and a subscription model where users pay VANRY for premium AI tools—creating real buy-and-burn demand rather than pure speculation. Price forecasts remain modest in the near term, with neutral estimates around $0.008, but long-term scenarios suggest a structural floor could form if developer adoption of Neutron scales and enterprise partnerships continue to materialize. VANRY today sits 98% below its all-time high, but the thesis is no longer about metaverse hype—it is a bet on AI agents needing permanent, verifiable memory and Vanar becoming the settlement layer for that economy.
