Veranta (formerly Avantis) 

AVNT Price

What is the Veranta (formerly Avantis) token?

Veranta (formerly Avantis) is a decentralized perpetual-futures and leveraged-trading platform built on Base, an Ethereum Layer 2. Traders open leveraged positions of up to roughly 500x on crypto, forex, commodities, and RWA perpetual markets, with USDC as collateral. Avantis Labs built the protocol, which reported more than $7.5B in cumulative volume and 60,000+ users at its Series A. The AVNT token powers staking, governance, and trading fee benefits.

How does Veranta's leveraged perpetual trading work?

Traders post USDC collateral and open leveraged perpetual positions priced by Pyth and Chainlink oracles. Liquidity providers deposit into an LP vault and earn a share of trading fees in exchange for backing trader positions. Since the rebrand, Veranta also runs dedicated RWA perpetual markets alongside crypto pairs. Access is geo-limited — leveraged crypto derivatives trading is restricted in several jurisdictions.

Why did Avantis rebrand to Veranta?

The rebrand pivoted the protocol's narrative toward RWA and cross-asset leverage trading. Veranta kept the AVNT ticker and the same Base contract (0x696f9436b67233384889472cd7cd58a6fb5df4f1), so token holdings and exchange listings carried over unchanged. Pairing the AVNT ticker with Veranta or Avantis in searches avoids confusion with unrelated TradFi tickers.

What is AVNT's total supply and token allocation?

AVNT has a fixed supply of 1,000,000,000 tokens on Base — no mechanism mints beyond this cap. The largest allocations are Onchain Incentives at 28.6% (286M), Investors at 26.6% (266M), Team & Advisors at 13.3% (133M), Airdrop 1 at 12.5% (125M), and Builders & Ecosystem Grants at 9% (90M). Unlocks redistribute existing tokens rather than creating new supply.

How does the AVNT unlock schedule affect investors?

Per DropsTab data, 4,574 unlock events are scheduled through roughly 2029, mostly daily linear tranches that began at TGE on 23 April 2025. Daily releases run around 223,000–229,000 AVNT from Onchain Incentives, about 123,000 from Builders & Ecosystem Grants, and roughly 56,000 from the Foundation. The combined ~39.9% insider allocation creates a recurring supply overhang. Daily granularity softens single-day shocks but extends dilution pressure for years.

Who backed Veranta (Avantis)?

Veranta raised approximately $12M across three rounds. Pantera Capital led the $4M seed round on 26 September 2023, with Founders Fund, Galaxy, Modular Capital, and Coinbase's Base Ecosystem Fund participating. The $8M Series A, announced 3 June 2025, was co-led by Pantera Capital and Founders Fund alongside Symbolic Capital, Flowdesk, and SALT Fund.

What does Veranta's fundraising signal about project maturity?

Pantera Capital led both priced rounds and Founders Fund participated in both — the two firms anchor the cap table. DropsTab classifies Pantera Capital as a Tier 1 investor. The Series A was structured as equity with token warrants; the post-money valuation was not disclosed. No single holder is reported above 20% of AVNT supply.

How did users qualify for the Avantis airdrop?

Qualification ran through two XP campaigns. XP Farming launched on 11 July 2024 and rewarded on-chain trading and liquidity-provision actions with experience points. Point Farming — Season 2 of Avantis XP — went live on 12 December 2024. Accumulated XP mapped into Airdrop 1 of 125M AVNT (12.5% of supply) at the 23 April 2025 TGE, alongside a 1% Binance HODLer Airdrops allocation. Both campaigns have ended.

Is AVNT a coin or a token?

AVNT is a token, not a coin — the asset runs on Base rather than on its own blockchain. The token contract is verifiable on Basescan, and the network uses 18 decimals. DropsTab classifies AVNT under Perpetual, DeFi, Derivatives, DEX, and Base Ecosystem categories.
