This time I want to talk about the story of @Vanarchain and the “Green Energy Node.” Using Google’s clean energy is of course a good label, but these days, environmental narratives in the crypto space are as common as “revolutionary,” as if giving projects a moral armor.
What I find interesting is the certain contradiction here: a high-performance chain committed to hosting AI large models and global payments, whose core environmental claim is actually outsourcing energy sources. It’s a bit like claiming to drive a fuel-guzzling truck around the world, but since it purchases carbon credits, it’s still “carbon neutral.” The logic holds, but it feels subtle.
Perhaps the issue isn’t with Vanar itself, but with our constant expectation that a technological monster also plays the role of environmental pioneer. When “green” becomes a badge that must be worn on the chest, its symbolic meaning often surpasses actual emission reductions. Vanar’s attempt is worth noting, but I look forward more to seeing how it integrates energy-saving directly into the underlying logic of the chain, rather than just procurement lists. $VANRY
After all, true green might not just be about buying a “redemption coupon” for computing power, right? #Vanar
