What sets Vanar apart from today’s popular L1s?
I see @Vanarchain chain positioning itself around areas many other chains tend to neglect: onboarding and first-use experience. Wallet setup, login, fees, and overall usage flow are designed to feel closer to Web2, removing much of the friction that usually forces newcomers to first understand seed phrases, gas mechanics, and other core crypto concepts before they can do anything meaningful.
But this isn’t just a UX improvement — it reflects a deeper structural shift. To make everything feel “abstracted” and seamless, there must be an orchestration layer between the user and the base chain. That raises important questions: Who controls that layer? Who has upgrade authority? Is there a mechanism to pause or intervene?
And if something goes wrong, do users have a direct path to exit independently — or must they rely on the project’s gateway?
Compared to battle-tested L1s that have survived multiple market cycles, Vanar may offer a smoother and more accessible experience. However, that convenience could come at the cost of reduced autonomy and limited self-custody escape options during periods of stress.
Ultimately, the real question isn’t just whether Vanar is easier to use — it’s whether you’re comfortable with the trade-off between usability and sovereignty.
