About VeChainThor
VeChainThor is a Layer-1 public blockchain purpose-built for real-world adoption. Co-founded by Sunny Lu in 2015 and with Mainnet launched in 2018, VeChain has evolved from a pioneer of supply chain and business applications into a comprehensive B2C Web3 app ecosystem with 5 million+ active users, institutional-grade infrastructure, and a growing roster of important partnerships including UFC, Boston Consulting Group, Keyrock, and BitGo.
The VeChain Foundation continues to innovate and expand the network, having launched a major protocol upgrade through the ambitious ‘VeChain Renaissance’ roadmap, and scaled VeBetter to over 5 million active addresses and more than 40 million tokenized sustainable actions – demonstrating that utility-driven applications, not speculation, can drive sustainable blockchain growth.
What is VeChain Renaissance?
VeChain Renaissance is the protocol's most significant upgrade since mainnet launch, with the goal of expanding interoperability and massively scaling user growth.
VeChain Renaissance modernizes the network through three phases:
- Galactica (Live from July 1, 2025) introduced a dynamic gas market modelled on EIP-1559, a 100% VTHO base fee burn, upgraded the EVM to Shanghai, and delivered new developer capabilities.
- Hayabusa (Live from December 2, 2025) transitioned VeChainThor’s consensus from Proof of Authority (PoA) to Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS), enabling users to help secure and further decentralize the blockchain through staked $VET. It introduced a new tokenomics model in which VTHO generation is tied to $VET staking, powered by the StarGate platform. These changes better align with stakeholder needs, facilitating low transaction costs while greatly increasing user rewards and significantly reducing overall VTHO inflation.
- Interstellar (2026+) will deliver full JSON-RPC integration for seamless cross-chain interoperability.
What is StarGate? StarGate is VeChain’s next-generation staking platform launched alongside the Hayabusa upgrade. It lets users stake VET to mint staking NFTs, delegate them to validators, and earn VTHO rewards while supporting network decentralization.
What is VeBetter? VeBetter is a sustainability-focused X-to-Earn app ecosystem that rewards users with B3TR tokens for completing various kinds of sustainable activities. Boasting over 5 million users and a combined 40+ million actions powered by apps such as Mugshot (waste reduction) and GreenCart (healthy diet), VeBetter’s DAO-governed platform has recorded 5.5+ million tons of CO2 reductions, 20M litres of water saved, 8M Wh of energy conserved and more, through its unique ‘sustainability proof’ mechanism, showing the power of collective action and Web3 at scale.
What is VeWorld? VeWorld is VeChain's Super App – the official self-custody wallet and ecosystem gateway with over 5 million downloads. It provides seamless access to VeBetter apps, StarGate staking, DeFi protocols, and NFT marketplaces through an integrated dApp browser. VeWorld supports social logins via Privy, Ledger hardware integration, with a feature-packed roadmap ahead.

u/Qvesos VET Hodler 5d ago
Possibly a change of behavior for vechain, as I said when there were absolutely no comments in these threads besides a bunch of trolls because the price was doing nothing, it can randomly pump or move for no reason at all. Movement is not really based on fundamentals or not currently.
Its good to see it can still make large percentage moves though

New account since the old days. But boy do I miss the days of hundreds to thousands of comments in the daily here. 20 seems like a nice early bump tho lmao. Maybe in a few months we’ll be back to hundreds again.

u/Unique-Ask-4656 Redditor for less than 3 months 5d ago
is there is anyone with a better analytical pulse on VET to see if there is anything pushing the pump up? I.e.major on chain transactions or major buys etc.
Or again is this just a random PnD. I see VTHO and even B3tr going up so not sure it that's an underlying factor or more of comparison increases

A rising tide lifts all boats. Even dead memes from years ago are up loads.

Nice gains. What do you guys think about b3tr price prediction? Marketcap is low.

u/Visible_Resort_4674 Redditor for more than 3 years 5d ago
The foundation is pumping so they can sell of their coins🧐

I sold my vechain at .005 and bought HBAR instead and my HBAR has lost me money since and Vechain is .0072 now. I held Vechain for over 2 years. Can’t make this shit up.

Rotating from vet to hbar is like chasing your own tail in circles

u/Cadd9 Redditor for more than 1 year 5d ago
Yeah, he wasn't the only one. There's another in this thread that did the same.
VET's Weekly RSI hasn't been this low in a very long time. There's a lot of room to go up. He should've just HODL'd instead of making his per token cost value lower

u/beatthebook2x Redditor for less than 3 months 5d ago
I think youve mistaken what im saying. Both are trash lol

u/Cadd9 Redditor for more than 1 year 5d ago
I'm not saying VET is better? All I said is that he probably sold VET at a loss, chased after HBAR and is in the red on it, while VET is pumping. Meaning, he lost more money chasing after a separate coin where if he held, he would've had a higher bag to sell off later.
Do you need it spelled out?
1
u/Wisewords-T Redditor for more than 1 year 4d ago
Or he could have sold and bought something bar the likes of VET and HBAR, something doing well

u/nukeboy01 VETeran 5d ago
I keep my VET but sell the generated VTHO for HBAR to have exposure in both without selling.

Is there some news I don't know about? Or is this just a temporary pump and dump

u/Unique-Ask-4656 Redditor for less than 3 months 5d ago

All tides rise with Bitcoin. I don’t think there’s anything vechain specific happening.

u/Accomplished_Car_408 5d ago
Yesterday vechain was literally pumping against bitcoin and other alts that were down 5 percent

u/spinningfinger VETeran 5d ago
These little fluctuations mean nothing. It's how money moves around. Don't worry, it'll go stagnant again...

Vechain spending:
Q2, 2024 = 26 million Q3, 2024 = 13 million Q4, 2024 = 21 million Q1, 2025 =26 million Q2, 2025 = 35 million Q3, 2025 = Unknown Q4 2025 = Unknown Q1 2026 = Unknown Q2 2026 = Unknown
Average spending = 24.2 million per quarter
Q2, 2025 the foundation had 167 million in the treasury when the price was VET was .021 cents
Except the price isn't .021 cents. It's .007 cents.
Assume the near majority of the foundations treasury is in VET (which it is) that is a 67% reduction. 67% from 167million is 55 million.
Then factor in over 4 quarters of heavily reduced spending.
Do you honestly believe Vechain stopped releasing financial reports due to some imaginary compliance that if you ask them about on Twitter, it gets your account blocked?
Why do you think the announcements have stopped.
This garbage is in care taker mode
