Is VanarChain still dependent on the gaming and consumer narrative, or will it expand into DeFi and RWA
I look at DeFi and RWA and I feel a kind of sadness, because that is where nothing gets rescued by narrative anymore, only cash flow structure and trust remain. VanarChain is being boxed into gaming and consumer, and I think if it survives only on the excitement of new users, then, ironically, it will be worn down by that very speed when the cycle turns.
Gaming and consumer give the chain a distribution edge, because they have a reason to bring users onchain without needing to talk too much about finance. But perhaps the harder question is, once users are in, what value makes them stay, and who is paying the fees for the system to keep running. If fees and revenue depend only on surface level activity, then every cooldown will turn usage into an empty number.
Expanding into DeFi is not about chasing a trend, it is about building a layer that holds capital, stable liquidity, lending, and basic derivatives markets for its own ecosystem. But DeFi is also where small mistakes become major incidents, audits stop being optional, and every incentive has to be designed so it does not burn the token from the inside.
RWA is a different game, less speed, more partners, more standards, but in return you get demand that can detach from pure crypto sentiment. VanarChain does not need to abandon consumer growth, it needs to decide what will keep value anchored when the crowd moves on.
I am tired of roadmaps that look too perfect, but I still believe that if VanarChain uses gaming to open the door, then uses DeFi or RWA to anchor value, it has a chance to make it through the bad season. Will it choose to anchor itself with onchain liquidity, or with real world assets.
