Vanar Chain is rethinking the future of Web3 infrastructure in a somewhat different way.
This public chain was formerly known as Terra Virtua. After several iterations involving VR/AR content platforms and NFT digital collectibles, it underwent a major upgrade in 2023—rebranding, changing the token from TVK to $VANRY, and solidifying its core slogan: "Serving 3 billion users to enter Web3." It sounds ambitious, but they are indeed doing some interesting things on the technical level.
The most notable aspect is the consensus mechanism. Vanar doesn't use the conventional PoW or PoS; instead, it has created something called PoR (Reputation Proof). Simply put: no need for computing power, no grinding on mining rigs, and no competition over who has more tokens. Instead, they select well-known, reputable institutions in the industry as validators, and $VANRY holders participate in delegated staking. This approach reduces the risk of fraud while maintaining decentralization. Plus, with full EVM compatibility, developers can migrate projects with virtually zero cost.
On the technical stack, they have built a five-layer integrated system. The bottom layer, Vanar Chain, handles transaction throughput and fees. The Neutron layer converts land contracts and compliance documents into "seeds" that AI can understand. Kayon runs AI inference and automation logic directly on-chain, enabling real-time compliance verification without oracles. This transforms smart contracts from "passive executors" into truly intelligent entities.
The entire solution is aimed primarily at entertainment and gaming—hence the emphasis on AI-native and programmable features. Web3 is evolving from what it can do (programmability) to what it truly will do (intelligence).

PoR this set seems to be all about playing the "reputation endorsement" game, but it all depends on how it actually lands in practice.
Sounds good, but Terra's mess hasn't been fully cleaned up yet.
EVM compatibility is indeed attractive; I admit that the low migration cost for developers is a plus.
Native AI + on-chain reasoning... another big hype, let's wait and see.
Reputation proof vs. mining, this perspective is indeed fresh, but I wonder if it will turn into a power elite mechanism.
I just want to ask, are these 3 billion users genuinely targeted or is it just a fundraising slogan?
Neutron and Kayon, these two layers, I don't quite understand, it feels like they're just stacking concepts.
No need for oracles for compliance verification? Let's just put a question mark there for now.
If this wave can truly solve the real needs of gaming chains, that would be impressive; right now, it's all just PPT.
If the PoR mechanism becomes a monopoly business of "reputation circles," it will be a bloodbath.
Honestly, not many people read the Chinese documentation; the code is the real truth.

PoR sounds okay, but how many projects can truly be implemented and used?
---
The figure of 3 billion users... is it serious? Haha
---
Finally, someone has come up with something different. It's much better than just copying and pasting another public chain.
---
Can on-chain AI inference really work? Or is it just another hype concept?
---
Transforming compliance documents into seeds on the Neutron layer... this idea seems interesting, just worried about poor execution.
---
Having gone from Terra Virtua to here, I don't know how much longer I can persist.
---
I believe in EVM-compatible zero-cost migration, but can PoR really replace PoS?
---
The tech stack looks good, but the key is whether the ecosystem can develop. Without an ecosystem, all the fancy features are useless.
---
Reputation proof sounds a bit centralized? Using well-known institutions as validators... what does this say about decentralization?
---
The gaming and entertainment track is indeed a breakthrough. If it can be done well, there might be a chance.

The PoR logic is quite interesting; compared to pure hash power, it's definitely more refreshing.
---
Is Terra Virtua just a rebrand? This time it feels serious, and the PoR mechanism looks promising.
---
A target of 3 billion users is a bit bold, but on-chain AI inference is indeed a new approach.
---
EVM compatibility + native AI, if it really takes off, the gaming experience could be exceptional.
---
Reputation proof sounds like elite verification? Or is it still centralized with a different guise?
---
No need for oracles for compliance verification; if it can be implemented, that would be impressive. Just worried it might be all talk.
---
From TVK to VANRY, this brand makeover combined with a new mechanism—let's see how it goes.

It's PoR again, and it's AI-native. They sound impressive, but can it really work in practice?

Wait, can PoR really work? Honestly, isn't it just about reputation? Well-known institutions are definitely reliable, right?
---
3 billion users haha, let's first keep the current users and see what happens.
---
EVM compatibility is pretty good, at least no need to re-adapt.
---
Running AI inference on-chain, can the cost really be reduced? I have some doubts.
---
From Terra Virtua to Vanar, is this really going to take off? Question mark.
---
Reputation proof sounds good, but I'm worried it might just turn into a power game in the end.
---
The gaming track is indeed competitive, but we need to create a real differentiator.
---
Real-time on-chain compliance verification, if there are vulnerabilities, it could be a disaster.
---
Another promise of 3 billion users... I'll just wait and see.
---
A five-layer integrated tech stack sounds impressive, but how well it actually runs remains to be seen.

The idea of PoR is pretty good; it's more reasonable than just focusing on increasing the coin supply.

PoR this approach is really fresh. Compared to PoS's "token rights equal speech rights," it's definitely more comfortable.
---
30 million users? Wake up, buddy, just marketing slogans.
---
Running AI inference on-chain without oracles—this part does have some real substance.
---
Another "rethinking the future of Web3." I'm already tired of hearing it...
---
From TVK to VANRY—another token swap for a new generation? Better be cautious.
---
EVM compatibility is standard now, nothing special to boast about.
---
Native AI + on-chain inference—finally some new ideas in the gaming sector.
---
Proof of reputation sounds good, but I'm worried that the actual validators are still monopolized by big institutions.
---
The five-layer stack design is serious, but how well it will be implemented remains to be seen.
---
Is this truly innovative or just another round of packaging? We'll see what the mainnet data says.
