What is Vana?
Permissions and repeated data use
Contributors can set and revoke access permissions. Applications read information within their granted scope. One contribution can therefore support repeated authorized reads. The protocol records the relevant permission relationship. Personal servers provide the user's data environment. Read fees currently settle in USDC. Blockchain gas remains payable in VANA. The September 2026 specification separates those two payment roles.
Usage funds rewards and burns
The current fee allocation assigns 60% to operator pools. Half of the remaining treasury share funds buybacks. This makes buybacks 20% of total fee income. Purchased VANA is distributed to stakers or burned according to its funding share. Delegators select an operator and its commission terms. A five-day bonding period precedes reward eligibility. Validator rewards create issuance independently of data usage. The stated 120-million supply ceiling is a policy commitment. Expanded delegated slashing and stake-weighted work allocation remain planned upgrades.
