DUBAI, UAE – May 16, 2025 – Vanar Chain announced the successful public debut of Neutron, an AI‑powered compression stack that stores complete files directly on‑chain. Unveiled at the oversubscribed Vanar Vision conference on April 30 at Dubai’s Theatre of Digital Art (TODA), the stack positions Vanar as the first blockchain to abolish external storage and deliver genuine, provable digital ownership.
TODA’s 360‑degree screens became both stage and canvas as more than 120 founders, venture investors, payment executives, and journalists gathered minutes from the Token2049 hub. Against a wrap‑around swirl of animated code, Neutron compressed a 25‑megabyte 4K clip into a 47‑character “Neutron Seed,” embedded it inside a live Atlas v1.3 main‑net transaction, and replayed the restored video in under thirty seconds.
Neutron acts “like a zip file that lives inside the block,” said Jawad Ashraf, Vanar Chain’s CEO, putting an end to what he called the industry’s “ownership illusion.”
Traditional chains cap payloads near 65 KB, forcing developers to park assets on IPFS or cloud buckets—weak links that can rot or vanish. Neutron’s four‑stage pipeline—AI‑Driven Reconfiguration, Quantum‑Aware Encoding, Chain‑Native Indexing, and Deterministic Recovery—shrinks data up to 500‑to‑1 while keeping it instantly queryable by any smart contract.
The stakes became clear on April 15 when an AWS outage froze Binance, KuCoin, and MEXC for 23 minutes. “One cloud hiccup broke half the trading world,” Ashraf reminded the audience. “With Neutron, the data lives where the consensus lives; nothing points outside the chain.”
Coverage was immediate. Cointelegraph quoted Jawad Ashraf, CEO of Vanar Chain, naming Neutron “the world’s first technology to work with both physical file compression and semantic one.” AInvest called the size reduction “crucial for everything from DeFi snapshots to medical imaging”.
The venue amplified the message. TODA’s projection walls formed a vault; ledgers scrolled overhead while laser projectors stitched code into constellations. NFC demo stations let visitors scan a tag and watch a JPEG bloom from a seed.
Che Cabreros of Worldpay stressed commerce: “When a refund, a chargeback, or a proof‑of‑delivery is itself an immutable seed, we eliminate the grey area between merchants and banks globally at scale.”
Vanar closed with a roadmap animation about Kayon — a decentralized intelligence engine that reads Neutron seeds, understands them, and interacts with them like an agent. “Quantum computing is coming and when it does that it will crack traditional keys,” said Jawad Ashraf. “The technology that we’re building is quantum encrypted and our AI and our blockchain is built for the future.“
Vanar’s momentum extends beyond the event. Fresh integrations with Google Cloud’s renewable‑energy nodes, NVIDIA’s CUDA‑accelerated AI stack, and payments giant Worldpay ensure Neutron seeds can be minted and settled on enterprise‑grade infrastructure. Event partners—Tech Valley and INPUT Global—pledged regional roadshows to introduce Neutron to regulators, family offices, and university labs across MENA and Europe.
