By the way. You want to know the hilarious reason most ZEC fans don’t dig into Verus?
Lazy research called Exchange Checking Bias
They make the mistake of opening up their favorite coin aggregator, see that Verus is only on two small centralized exchanges, and they go no further
What they don’t realize is Verus is the only crypto protocol in the world where the vast majority of its volume and liquidity and trading is at the protocol level of the system. One of the many things Zcash can’t do.
If centralized exchanges ever delisted ZEC it would suffer dramatically for a time. If the small centralized exchanges delisted Verus people in the Verus community would laugh…because centralized exchanges are irrelevant and unnecessary to the Verus protocol
You know…kind of like crypto was supposed to be😉
$VRSC $ZEC $BTC
This is the main reason why most people bypass Verus $VRSC without understanding what it is.
People dismiss it without looking any further than CoinGecko, CMC, etc. because they were trained to think centralized exchange listing are the most important metric for crypto.
But Verus is actually what crypto was supposed to be. It does not need exchanges. 👇

Verus is 5 year ahead of everyone 😭
We have decentralized ID solved, MEV solved, off-blockchain encryption (derived from your wallet secret, still, but unlinkable (!!) ), cross-chain interoperability & bridging, deeplink capabilities for un-phishable logins
You can’t short Verus $VRSC because it’s not on any TradFi Wall Street controlled exchanges (does not need to be)
I do not want an asset that can be manipulated by exchanges
$BTC $ETH
@Lightswarm@TheDesertLynx@Justin_Bons So for @justin_bons the future of finance is 100 victims of sandwich attack every hour, every day. Falsely claiming that MEV can't be solved on scalable blockchains.
MEV was solved. More than half a billion$ was exchanged onchain on VERUS without MEV.

I had the opportunity today to test VerusIDX, a versatile and feature rich app that connects locally to a Verus full node wallet. It is amazing🤯
If you want to give it a spin it is now in public testing. It is a game changer!
Visit the Verus Discord, in the verus-builders channel.

The Commons Powered Apps revolution on Verus is just getting started.
The new apps and projects channel on the Verus Discord is live. Not everything in development is there yet (a couple major projects in the works) but we already have a glimpse of some very nice apps that are in development.
$VRSC is complete, credibly neutral, advanced, and fair public infrastructure with no MEV or rent seeking behavior in the protocol.

Did you know that the Internet was around before the 90’s? It was around from the 60’s to the 80’s but it was viewed as a niche technology with not much application to the general population before the 90’s.
One of the things that changed is that web browsers went from static and clunky, to functional and easier to use. People then began to see the potential of the internet as the UI/UX got better. People had a way to interact with what was already under the hood.
Think of the Verus Internet of Value, in 2025, the same way. It is a complete and very advanced protocol that the majority of crypto and financial people are unaware of. Verus is on the verge of having its ‘functional UX/UI web browser’ moments.
People are building things right now, that once deployed, will set off the same light bulb moments as browsers did for the early internet.
I hope you have been paying attention. Just because action on crypto is flat, does not mean people have stopped building.

Working on a Verus video describing how the protocol solves MEV, with a brilliant voiceover by @brainchildish
I am reminded again, as I listened to the voiceover, just how far ahead Verus tech is compared to everything else on the market.
There is a reason why long term Verus accumulators with knowledge of the protocol refuse to part with their $VRSC
The rest of the crypto world not understanding what has been accomplished in this protocol is really surprising, and a bit laughable.
$BTC $ETH $SOL
Do you realized that anyone who acquired $VRSC from its genesis in May 2018 until June of 2024, and held it all this time, is still in huge profit?
What other long term crypto holders, aside from Bitcoiners, have an asset that strong when held long term?
That is 6 years of rising gains for anyone that accumulated VRSC in that range. That is almost unheard of in this asset class
Now you know why the Verus community is so strong and does not part with their $VRSC easily. It is a Unicorn in both tech/system design and value performance
$BTC $ETH $SOL $SUI
Verus $VRSC is technologically advanced and is the rare crypto asset that is not dependent on centralized or decentralized exchanges. Verus has thrived and grown without any mid tier or blue chip tier exchange listings.
It is a crypto Unicorn that is so undervalued that people will look back and ask how they missed it.
How many other cryptos have a rising overall value over a 6+ year history? If you have been in crypto for a while that alone should get you to spend some time trying to understand how that is possible.
$BTC $ETH #AI
Verus is the only crypto currency in the world that has no need of centralized or decentralized exchanges because it has protocol level automated market makers with more liquidity for its native currency $VRSC than most crypto currencies have on even the largest centralized exchanges.
If you want to accumulate $VRSC, especially in large quantities, it is best to convert $ETH, $tBTC, $DAI, $MKR, or another asset to VRSC on chain, at the protocol level, where you will get the most liquidity.
Centralized exchanges are irrelevant in a completely decentralized self sufficient system like Verus. Ask yourself if the other “decentralized” cryptocurrency projects can make that claim? Or are they dependent on centralized points of failure?
Verus is truly unique and groundbreaking.
The problem is people keep chasing projects that are nothing more than elaborate multi year VC/insider extraction operations, most of which will never deliver.
They exist to bleed retail dry and fade to nothing. Vampire protocols that prey on the uninformed.
Choose a protocol that delivered 100% of what they set out to build, and more. No insiders, no VC money, no rent seeking behavior built in to the protocol.
Verus $VRSC is that protocol. Rising in value since 2018 instead of fading to oblivion…because it is legit the best tech in the industry built by the legendary @MikeToutonghi . Credibly neutral infrastructure without scaling limits.
Wait till you see what is about to be deployed on it soon.
Most of the Bitcoin supply is in the hands of institutions and corporations now, with most of that shift happening in the last 7 years or so. Bitcoin mining is dominated by ASICS in large centralized warehouses…also having large chunks hash power owned by institutions
How long until gov’s, institutions, and companies with virtually unlimited capital and resources between them accumulate the majority of stake control in 100% proof of stake systems in the top 50 if they want to eventually control or steer them in a desired direction?
Not having a POW mechanism(alongside POS) that has a low barrier to entry(like cell phone cpu mining) for validating transactions is a mistake IMO.
This AP article has Verus listed as one of the 10 projects/booths at @consensus2025 that are generating buzz.
What is amazing is that:
-All of the other listed projects are companies AND/OR VC backed
-Verus is the only one of the 10 that is not a company AND/OR VC backed.
-Verus is the only project of that 10 that is entirely community led, has no VC funding, no CEO, no company backing it, is fair launched, has no insiders, no rent seeking behavior or dev tax in the protocol.
What Verus has achieved with its innovation, and especially its growth over the last 2 years, is a remarkable achievement for a community led project.

There is only one protocol in the world that has all the total capabilities, at the consensus layer, for a new category of decentralized apps called Commons Powered Apps (CPAs)
The Verus Internet of Value
@MikeToutonghi the lead developer of Verus will be speaking at @consensus2025 at 11:25 on the 14th about how Verus enables this new app category
$VRSC #Consensus2025
All you have to do is look at that the Verus live network viewer to understand that it is very different from all the other blockchain protocols in existence.
When you look under the hood to understand what you are seeing below...you will have no doubts it is the most advanced multi chain/asset crypto network in the world.
