Actually, I'm almost falling asleep watching the L1 track. Really, it's homogenized to the point of numbness.
The result is that I couldn't sleep last night, and I accidentally clicked on the document of @Vanar and took a look... it directly energized me.
Isn't every chain now claiming to be +AI? But for the vast majority, I feel like it's just giving an old house a coat of 'smart home' paint; it still leaks air where it leaks, and creaks where it creaks. It's pure labeling.
But this thing from Vanar, it seems like... it started from laying the foundation, wanting to build a house for AI to live in. From the modular bottom layer, to the middle storage layer that can 'understand' (called Neutron), and then to the top reasoning engine Kayon. This feels like not just an upgrade, but wanting to directly change the brain.
What impresses me the most is the solid determination behind its infrastructure efforts. Collaborating with Google Cloud, I initially thought it was just for show. Upon closer inspection, they are actually utilizing the global submarine cables to address the hard issue of cross-chain latency; the nodes are also powered by Google's green energy. Plus, they are working with NVIDIA for computing power. This whole setup is not extravagant; it's methodically laying the groundwork. In this day and age, there aren't many projects that are willing to diligently lay the foundation.
The logic of the token $VANRY is also changing. It no longer resembles those purely speculative chips; it’s more like 'fuel costs'. For example, when you use its AI services to store things or find things (that myNeutron), you really have to consume it. The economic model is driven by real demand, which feels more grounded compared to just shouting about governance votes and that kind of empty narrative. The data also reflects this; in the past week, the staking volume surged by 20 million, with total locked assets breaking 67 million coins. The market is so volatile, yet big money is still coming in, indicating that the gamble is not about tomorrow's ups and downs, but about the future it describes.
What I’m most curious about is the PayFi they plan to launch early next year. Think about it, if in the future, the main players running transactions and signing contracts on the chain gradually become AI themselves, what kind of environment do they need? It certainly can't be an old ledger that only keeps numerical records; it must be a settlement layer that can understand human language (and AI language), can comply automatically, and has transaction fees that are nearly zero. Vanar has directly integrated the AI engine into the payment process, clearly paving the way for that future. Like a regular army, not just a casual endeavor.
The more I think about it, the more I feel that this might not just be 'another fast chain', but perhaps 'another type of chain'.
Finally, I ponder a question: if the main residents on the chain in the future are AI, will our current 'ledger chains', designed for humans and clumsy, be replaced by these 'intelligent chains' created for AI, similar to how an abacus was replaced?
Just chatting, hoping to hear different opinions in the comments to wake me up.
