About VeChain

VeChain (VET) is the native cryptocurrency of the VeChainThor blockchain. VET is used as a medium of exchange for activities and transactions on the VeChainThor blockchain and serves as a “fuel” to power the network. VET holders have the right to vote on governance decisions, participate in Proof of Authority (PoA) consensus, and receive rewards in the form of VTHO tokens. VET holders will also be able to benefit from other financial services such as staking, lending, and trading on third-party exchanges. With its innovative features, VeChainThor is positioned to be one of the most influential public blockchains, and VET is an integral part of this ecosystem.

The VeChain Token (VET) and VeThor Token (VTHO) are the two tokens that make up the VeChainThor blockchain's two-token design. VET is used as a medium of exchange for activities and transactions on the VeChainThor blockchain and serves as a “fuel” to power the network. VET holders have the right to vote on governance decisions, participate in Proof of Authority (PoA) consensus, and receive rewards in the form of VTHO tokens. VTHO is generated from VET at a predetermined velocity of 0.00000005 VTHO per VET per block and is used to pay the transaction fee for executing smart contracts and transactions on the blockchain. The two-token system (VET+ VTHO) helps to separate the cost of using blockchain from market speculation and stabilizes the cost. The total supply of VET is (check total supply), and VTHO is generated and consumed according to the amount of VET held and the amount of transactions taking place on the blockchain.
VeChain was created by Sunny Lu, who is the co-founder and CEO of the VeChain Foundation. Sunny previously served as the CIO of Louis Vuitton China. He has over 15 years of experience in the IT industry and has worked in the blockchain space since 2011. The VeChain Foundation, established in Singapore in 2017, is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the adoption and development of blockchain technology. The Foundation is responsible for developing and maintaining the VeChainThor blockchain, as well as providing technical guidance, education, and support services to the community.

Is VeChain Dead or Just Too Quiet to Notice?

Is VeChain Dead or Just Too Quiet to Notice?

LayerZero (ZRO) trades around $1.30 with a market cap near $330 million, down 81.8% from its $7.47 all-time high, after a $292 million bridge hack tied to North Korea's Lazarus Group drained KelpDAO's rsETH bridge on April 18, 2026 and triggered a wave of protocol migrations to Chainlink's CCIP. LayerZero Labs admitted it "made a mistake" allowing its own decentralized verifier network to act as a 1/1 verifier for high-value transactions, banned the configuration entirely, and joined the DeFi United recovery fund. The protocol still connects more than 150 blockchains including Cardano and Solana, with Stargate Finance, Ondo Finance (35 tokenized US stocks on Hyperliquid), Tether's USDT0, Ethena's USDe, and BitGo's WBTC running on its messaging layer. The Zero blockchain, backed by Citadel Securities, DTCC, ICE, and Google Cloud, targets a fall 2026 launch with two million transactions per second.

XRD Wallet Security Went From Afterthought to Industry Standard

XRD Wallet Security Went From Afterthought to Industry Standard

Radix (XRD) is a Layer 1 smart contract platform whose Babylon mainnet, live since September 28, 2023, makes blind signing structurally impossible at the wallet level. Network TVL climbed from $21.5M to $49.3M in fourteen days during March 2026, ranking the chain 51st on DefiLlama. The Babylon upgrade replaced encoded function calls with human-readable transaction manifests, a pattern now drawing attention in Cosmos and NEAR developer forums. Atlan Digital conducted a pre-launch security assessment; the chain has reported zero major exploits since launch. XRD trades at $0.001288 with a $17.28M market cap (#766 on CoinMarketCap). Founder Dan Hughes passed away unexpectedly in July 2025, with CEO Andy Jarrett now leading the Radix Foundation alongside Chief Strategy Officer Adam Simmons and Finance Director Jonathan Day. The thesis: Radix's transaction manifest design is becoming the reference pattern for minimum DeFi wallet security, even as XRD's market cap remains a footnote.

 Why Tokenlon's Revenue Doesn't Match Its Token Price

Why Tokenlon's Revenue Doesn't Match Its Token Price

DEX aggregation is "solved" in DeFi, right? 1inch, Jupiter, Paraswap have you covered. Except the data paints a different picture. Tokenlon quietly processes over $120 million in weekly trading volume and a 99.71% order success rate, yet remains shockingly absent from discussion in industry forums and panels. Either the market is correct and Tokenlon's fundamentals are not what we perceive, or a highly-traveled protocol has been willfully ignored.
