Avantis has now entered into its next phase, the one that involves a broader push towards real-world assets. The protocol has now rebranded in a fresh attempt to widen its horizons, becoming Veranta in the process. Veranta will now broaden its focus beyond crypto, moving closer towards helping traders access different asset classes on its platform. The rebranding is the protocol’s own way to mark a new chapter, moving beyond its traditional identity to embrace the evolving onchain trading landscape.

From Avantis To Veranta: What Changed?

The Avantis rebrand reflects a wider expansion in what users can now trade on the platform. Veranta describes itself as an onchain exchange, offering leverage across crypto, forex, metals, equities and other real-world assets. The project later clarified how this rebrand does not impact its token $AVNT, keeping its core principles intact.

“Veranta represents a new era of our protocol. Avantis was the first chapter: we proved that leverage should not stop at crypto and got to ~$100B volume traded, across 100K+ users and 120K+ supportive token holders. Veranta is the next chapter: a new era where anyone, anywhere, can trade the untradeable with the lowest fees. Agents included. Nothing changes with our token; it will always be $AVNT.”

The firm has planned to position the RWA assets next to its crypto trading arena, within the same trading environment.

This helps traders trade such assets at a single platform without having the need to switch platforms while doing so. The new asset classes that Veranta has introduced include arenas such as foreign exchange, precious metals, equities and other assets that traditionally sit outside of DeFi.

Real World Assets Are Becoming A Central Theme For The World

Real-world assets are now becoming one of the leading experimental arenas for platforms to explore at the moment. Veranta’s rebrand confirms the broader narrative of how the world is increasingly leaning towards embracing RWA assets.

The project’s latest rollout includes more than 100 real-world assets, while the project’s roadmap is aiming for 500-plus RWA markets over time.

“What to look forward to through the year-end. Listing 500+ RWAs (including exotic assets). Increasing available RWA liquidity to $500M+. New tools for agentic trading. New derivatives, including options.”

The platform has also expanded liquidity across major FX pairs and precious metals.

At the same time, the project reported its private beta launch stats, stating how it had generated $1B+ in volume, $200K+ in revenue and 100K+ trades.

What Cross Asset Leverage Means

Veranta’s broader strategy includes helping traders conduct cross-asset leverage rather than limiting them to just using crypto derivatives.

Veranta later added how its traders can access crypto, stocks, and other RWA assets at a single place. Its V2 rollout also introduced new additions, including partial take profit and stop loss. The idea of Avantis being rebranded as Veranta is fairly simple, as it allows traders to conduct RWA trading alongside crypto without having them to switch between multiple apps or platforms.
