Vanar Chain

Overview

A Layer-1 network of its own rather than an application on someone else's. Vanar Chain is EVM-compatible by design — an Ethereum-equivalent execution environment, so Solidity contracts and the ordinary Ethereum toolchain work against it unchanged — with its own validator set, its own native token in VANRY, and its own economics. Around it sits the rest of the estate: the mainnet explorer, the Hub, staking, a bridge from Ethereum, a faucet and a testnet.

Challenges

Deciding to run a chain rather than deploy to one is a decision to own everything underneath the application: block production, the validator set, gas economics, and the tooling a developer expects to exist before they will take the network seriously. A chain with no explorer, no faucet and no bridge is a private database with extra steps. None of it can be added later without the network already having run long enough to be worth joining.

Solution

Ethereum equivalence at the execution layer, so nothing above it has to be relearned, with the consensus layer customised for the throughput and cost the network targets. Blocks are validator-signed on a three-second cadence at a 30 million gas limit, which is what holds fees at a fraction of a cent while leaving headroom for contract-heavy traffic. Every piece of surrounding infrastructure was built alongside the chain rather than after it.

Results

• 25,319,000+ blocks produced at a 3.003s average block time
• 44.4M transactions and 1.685M addresses on the network
• 1,225 contracts deployed, 334 tokens, 10.2M VANRY transfers

Conclusion

The figures are read from the network's own statistics page, which is linked above and is itself part of the delivery. Block time was checked independently against the public RPC over a thousand-block sample and came back at 3.00s, matching what the explorer reports.
