ANA: The Permanent Liquidity Layer
Most tokens don’t die at zero price. They die at zero liquidity.ANA was built to make zero-liquidity impossible by encoding an ever-present bid, a rising floor, and a programmatic flow of value back to itself. This layer establishes a permanent source of liquidity, converting protocol activity into robust, sustained demand for ANA and enabling deeper exit opportunities. Nirvana explicitly calls this model the Assured Value Machine (AVM): a deterministic market engine that mints, prices, and r...

Samsara: Unlock Expansive Value Within Any Digital Asset
Samsara transforms any digital asset into an AVA — a super-derivative with native yield, risk-free credit, and a rising floor price.Introduction: The Origin of Proof-of-ValueWhen Nirvana introduced the ANA token, it set a new benchmark for wealth storage. ANA is backed by protocol-owned USDC reserves at its floor price, enabling the protocol to enforce verifiable exit liquidity for every ANA at or above the floor — even in the event of a total bank run. ANA’s floor price is secured through on...

Samsara: Home of On-Chain Digital Asset Treasuries
The DAT ProblemDigital Asset Treasuries (DATs) represent one of the most exciting financial innovations of the past cycle. They gave investors a new way to gain exposure to digital assets through public markets, and they even come with built-in downside protection and potential upside amplification. Companies like MicroStrategy proved the concept at scale. Investors bought into Microstrategy to outperform Bitcoin’s price, taking full advantage of the leveraged management execution, market per...

Reserves are the bedrock of finance. They are the assets that systems lean on when volatility increases, when confidence decreases, and when stability is most important. Yet, every form of reserve history that we have provided has carried its own flaw:
Gold is durable but inert, meaning it cannot generate new value
Fiat is elastic but at extreme risk of debasement
Most crypto is promising but wildly unstable, collapsing precisely when resilience is required
The consequence of using flawed reserves to maintain financial stability is deep-seated fragility. Systems built on these assets inherit their weaknesses, such as cascading liquidations, forced unwinds, and fragility disguised as strength.
ANA was designed to break the cycle of flawed reserves. It anchors itself to the Floor, a mathematically enforced rising baseline of value, running on the Assured Value Machine (AVM). Unlike other assets, ANA is not at risk of implosion. It cannot collapse to zero. Its floor is immutable, enforced directly by protocol-owned reserves, and its market price always oscillates above certainty.
This transforms ANA into a reserve with permanent assurance:
Always worth at least its floor value
Structurally incapable of liquidation
Continuously compounding as the floor rises over time
In other words, the reserve, known as the floor, supports 100% of the supply at a defined value.
The ANA token itself is minted fairly and transparently. It was not pre-mined, there were no allocations set aside for insiders, and there are no underlying supply gimmicks. Value must enter the system before the tokens exist, ensuring there is an equilibrium between ANA’s supply and its underlying reserves.
What makes ANA singular is that it is not inert like gold. ANA is the engine of Nirvana’s architecture.
The ANA token unlocks recursive loops of leverage and compounding that other DeFi protocols cannot sustain without Nirvana’s coined AVM. Borrowing is capped at the underlying floor value, making systemic collapse mathematically impossible, not just “low-probability.”
These qualities also extend into governance utility. By staking ANA, holders receive prANA, which governs Nirvana & all Samsara markets while earning a share of protocol revenue. In this way, ANA holders not only secure the reserve but steer the direction of the system itself.
Gold preserves its value, but it’s hard to move.
Fiat is devalued into oblivion.
Crypto innovated but collapsed under volatility.
ANA transcends these trade-offs because it is:
Immutable to the downside, thanks to the floor
Dynamic in utility and integrated throughout Nirvana’s architecture
Honest in new token issuance (it can only be minted with USDC)
Empowering in governance
In other words, ANA objectively embodies what a perfect reserve asset should be. It cannot be broken, cannot be corrupted, and cannot be drained.
A new partnership will be announced soon, marking our first strategic alignment with a DAO that will invest in our future and establish a position in ANA as a reserve asset
Stay tuned.
