We are officially in the final countdown. With the VANRY Phase 1 snapshot set for February 4, 2026, the competition for the 3,014,705 VANRY prize pool is hitting fever pitch. If you are sitting outside the Top 100, you aren't just fighting other creators—you're fighting the algorithm.
Here’s the thing: most people are spamming "LFG" and getting de-weighted. To jump from the "danger zone" to a guaranteed reward spot, you need to change your strategy immediately.
1. The Trading Point Strategy ($1000 Volume)
While the mandatory task is often just a $10 trade to qualify, hitting $1,000 in volume acts as a powerful "multiplier" for your account's credibility.
What this really means is: You are proving "Skin in the Game." In the 2026 leaderboard update, creators who actively trade the asset they write about receive a "Conversion Bonus".
Pro Tip: Don't do it all in one trade. Spread it out over 2–3 trades to show consistent activity. This signals to the T+2 system that you are an organic user, not just a bot trying to "buy" points.
2. The "Quality Poll" Strategy
Since you have until February 4 for Vanar, your polls should be educational. Use them to collect "sentiment data" that you can then use in your next long article.
Poll Example: "Which VANRY feature will drive the most TVL in Phase 2?"
Why it works: Every vote is a "Valid Interaction." If 50 people vote, that's 50 high-weight points that spam posts won't get.
1. Stop the "Volume" Trap (Quality > Quantity)
The new rules effective as of January 26 are clear: you are limited to one long article and one short post per day for VANRY points. What this really means is that your single daily article must be a "powerhouse."
The Pro Move: Don't just post text. Use the Neutron/Kayon technical breakdown. The system rewards "Semantic Relevance," meaning if you talk about Vanar’s actual AI architecture, you score higher than someone just talking about price.
Deep Dive into the "AI Subscription" Utility
The biggest catalyst for VANRY in early 2026 is the transition to the Subscription Model for its AI tools.
Why this matters for your post: Content that explains why VANRY has value (gas fees fixed at $0.0005, native AI reasoning, and data compression) gets shared more.
Strategy: Write about the Kayon Engine (logic) and the Neutron Layer (memory). This demonstrates to the "Human Creator" filter that you are providing actual education to the community.
Technical Spotlight: Why VANRY is the AI Standard
Let’s break it down. While other chains "bolt on" AI, Vanar built it into the L1.
Neutron Layer: Imagine 500:1 data compression. It turns massive enterprise data into "Seeds" that AI agents can actually read on-chain.
Kayon Engine: This is the "brain." It allows for on-chain reasoning, meaning your AI agent doesn't have to leave the blockchain to make a decision.
The Bottom Line: Phase 1 is about proving who the real ecosystem leaders are. I’m pushing for the Top 100 because I believe in the Intelligence Economy Vanar is building.
