What is Vitreus?

Vitreus is a Layer-0 blockchain designed for real-world energy markets and AI compute. It uses two tokens — VTRS for governance and trading, VNRG for transaction fees — with a unique economic model where costs decrease as usage grows.

Powers all DEX pools
Used for VIP staking
Governance voting
Earned through energy generation

VNRG Token

The dynamic gas token — gets cheaper as Vitreus grows

The Virtuous Cycle

Usage grows→VNRG burned→Scarcity→Treasury adjusts pricing→Lower costs→More builders→More usage↻

Trading

How Swapping Works

Connect a wallet extension

polkadot.js, Talisman or SubWallet with an Ethereum-type account

Select tokens

Choose which tokens to swap and enter an amount

Confirm swap

Review the price, approve the transaction, done

No bridges needed — VTRS trades natively on Chain ID 1943

Price impact — Large trades relative to pool size will move the price. The UI shows estimated impact before you confirm.

Where do fees go?

The pool — its LPs — all of the fee, minus the routed slice below; it stays in the reserves

Protocol treasury — a governance-set slice of the trade, paid in VTRS — at most 0.1%; each pool's page shows its split

Token creator — the same kind of slice, for pools seeded by a launch

Nothing is burned and no fee goes to stakers. On the launch curve, the whole fee is split between the protocol and the creator.

The tier is fixed per pool when governance creates it. Real yield — no token printing; every LP return is a fee someone paid to trade.

Earning

LP Yield

Provide liquidity to a pool and its swap fees accrue to your share of the reserves.

Your position is yours to withdraw unless you lock it; only a launch's seed liquidity is locked forever
Risk: impermanent loss if token prices diverge significantly from when you deposited

How CoreXus DEX Works

AMM Pallet

A native Substrate pallet, not a Solidity fork: constant-product pools, U256 math, per-position LP locks, fees kept in the pool.

Solver Marketplace

Intents are escrowed and filled by bonded solvers; a missed settlement is slashed, an expired intent is refundable by anyone.

Launchpad

Fixed-supply tokens sold on a VTRS bonding curve that seeds a permanently locked pool when it completes.
