Appreciate the insights in the blog, thanks for sharing! ​But let’s be real for a moment: I’d love to see Vision show a bit more 'chest' now. We all want to conquer the regulated market, and that’s the right path, but we are still in the crypto world, not a government agency. ​Understatement has its place, but it's time to project more power and confidence. No need for empty hype, just the raw strength this project and the team behind it actually possess. The community is ready for a bit more 'punch'!

Today, the first Vision Web3 Committee meeting of the year took place, and our community representative @KurzmannLukas has shared his thoughts and reflections in a guest post on our blog. Spoiler alert: We are currently preparing the first-ever Vision governance vote. Full article: blog.vision.now/between-progre…

@VSNToken88 @FkleinwieGross Ich würde dir diese Frage beantworten, wenn du es schaffst sie seriös zu stellen.

Community Dom asks 1. From Narrative to Reality: Strategy & Long-term ImpactFlo, first off, huge respect for the pace lately! Between the trading challenges, the flood of podcasts, and interviews, Vision’s presence is everywhere. From a strategic perspective: Are you already able to measure the output of this offensive? What are you hoping for as we transition from the "narrative phase" into a live, operational chain? How does the plan look to translate this momentum into sustainable, long-term on-chain activity? 2. The Heart of Vision: Team Growth & ResilienceBuilding in this space is emotionally demanding—feedback, whether positive or critical, affects people. The team has clearly grown significantly. How large is the squad exactly by now? And more importantly: How do you ensure the team spirit stays strong amidst this speed? It would be great to see some of the faces behind the scenes (maybe share some of their X handles). We’d love to see who is burning for our success every single day! 3. The Global Ecosystem: Growth over CompetitionWe are seeing giants like @Mastercard , @PayPal , and @OndoFinance delivering at a massive scale. Instead of calling it "competition," I see it as the market maturing together. How do your partners, who are already planning projects with you, perceive this global drive? Is there a similar sense of constructive and productive calm as there is within your team? I’m curious how #Vision embraces this momentum while refining its own market entry to achieve maximum impact as part of this bigger picture. Looking forward to your insights, Flo! @FkleinwieGross #VisionChain #VSN #Web3 #InstitutionalAdoption #CryptoCommunity @vsntoken @BitpandaWallet

Thanks for the detailed breakdown, Flo! Really appreciate the transparency on the AIDA flow and the sheer scale of the team (50 core + Bitpanda's massive back-office is a powerhouse). Since we had to wait a little for this (well worth it!), I feel like I have one 'bonus question' left. I know you can't leak specific dates or secrets, but if you had exactly 8 words to put the community in the ultimate positive mood, whether as a full sentence or just a list of keywords, which 8 words would you choose? No pressure, but choose them wisely!

Apologies for the delayed response, busy times! From Narrative to Reality Appreciate it. We do measure output, but not just in terms of reach or impressions. What matters more is the quality of what follows: inbound from partners, stronger conversations, builders reaching out, and whether people already have context when we engage with them. What we’re doing right now is very much the first half of a classic AIDA (Attention-Interest-Desire-Action) flow. We’re building attention and interest. That’s what the podcasts, content, and overall presence are for. Not because that alone creates value, but because without it, the next steps become much harder. When the chain and the products & applications on it are live, the goal is that desire and action are not starting from zero. People already understand what Vision is, what it stands for, and why it matters. The transition from here is straightforward in theory: - turn awareness into integrations - turn integrations into usage - turn usage into recurring activity and fees That’s where it becomes real. So yes, the current phase is still narrative-heavy, we’re laying the groundwork so that when real products are live, we’re not trying to explain everything from scratch. At the end of the day, though, none of this replaces execution. If the products don’t deliver, attention doesn’t convert. The Heart of Vision You’re right, building in this space isn’t just technical. It’s emotional as well. On team size, across the core Web3 setup, we’re roughly around 50 people at this point. On top of that, we have a lot of supporting functions at Bitpanda like legal, compliance, regulatory, finance, tax and others that we can rely on when needed. They’re not exclusively working on Web3, but they’re an integral part of our mission to make DeFi actually work for regulated players. What matters more than the number is how the team operates. At this pace, it’s easy to lose focus or burn people out. So we put a lot of emphasis on clarity. What matters right now, what doesn’t, and why. Not everything can be priority one at the same time. We also try to stay honest internally. Things don’t always go as planned, and pretending otherwise doesn’t help. A strong team comes from people feeling they’re building something real, not just chasing a narrative. On visibility, fair point. We’ve started introducing more people, and we’ll continue doing that. At the same time, not everyone is comfortable putting themselves out there publicly, especially in crypto. It takes a certain level of… let’s call it commitment to be the face of a project here ;) Some people prefer to focus on building rather than tweeting, and that’s completely fine. We’ll keep finding the right balance between showing the team and respecting that. The Global Ecosystem I’d look at it the same way you do. It’s not really about competition in the traditional sense. It’s a sign that the space is maturing. When major players move in this direction, it validates the idea that onchain finance, especially around RWAs, is becoming real infrastructure. From the conversations we’re having, the tone is actually quite constructive. It’s less “who wins” and more “how do we make this work in a way that is scalable and compliant.” Our partners are thinking long-term. They care about things like regulatory clarity, distribution, and whether there is actual user demand, not just short-term narratives. That’s also how we approach it. Vision is not trying to be the loudest or fastest entrant. The goal is to enter with something that actually works in a European context, connects to real users, and can scale over time. If we get that right, we’re not competing against the global DeFi ecosystem. We’re part of building it.

Let no one say again that this card has a use case. @Bitpanda_global

Vision Chain will be the infrastructure behind Bitpanda Enterprise Tokenize. Together, we will bring scalable, compliance-ready tokenisation to institutions in Europe and beyond, built for regulated finance from day one. With Bitpanda Enterprise as our partner, Vision Chain moves directly into the hands of banks, corporates and asset issuers, becoming the infrastructure layer for regulated digital assets.

du kommentierst fast alle Beiträge, du BIST dabei - egal ob du einen oder keinen Token hältst. Wenn du dich lösen willst, beschäftige dich mit Dingen die dir gut tun und belaste mit deiner negativen Stimmung nicht andere Menschen, das führt zu nichts - es bestimmt deine Laune und ich wünsche die eine positivere.

@DerDom_Bo @vsntoken Bin ja jetzt schon nicht mehr dabei lass mich ja nicht hinters Licht führen

@HODL_HeroX @vsntoken japp und du wirst wieder dabei sein, vermutlich wieder negativ, aber dabei - schön das du da bist.

@DerDom_Bo @vsntoken Die fanboys sind auch beständig Projekt Nr.4 kommt bestimmt Soooon

@HODL_HeroX @vsntoken Gibt wenig was beständig ist, du bist es..😆

@DerDom_Bo @vsntoken Totaler Game changer der Kurs dreht auch schon 😂

@0xMavobe *and the Vision Token.

🚀 HUGE for $VSN! Vision Chain is now the infrastructure powering Bitpanda Enterprise Tokenize - bringing scalable, fully compliant RWA tokenization straight to European banks, corporates & institutions. Regulated on-chain finance is closer every time ✳️🚀 $VSN is the engine. LFG 🇪🇺🔥 🐼

@Alfliebtlarry @vsntoken Gemeckere egal was Sie gerade machen, das ist fix.

@vsntoken Ich höre überall nur wir wollen , wir wollen , wir wollen ! Ist auch schon irgendwas fix???

You asked, we answered. The first Vision Chain Q&A is now live! Governance, Nodes, Use-cases & more.

@AfDimBundestag @Alice_Weidel @Tino_Chrupalla Für eine Destabilisierung muss es vorher stabil gewesen sein. Ich würde sagen, es war stabil destabil - erst jetzt gibt es eine Chance einer Stabilität.

Zum Angriff auf den #Iran und zur Lage im Nahen Osten teilen die Vorsitzenden der AfD-Fraktion im Deutschen Bundestag, @Alice_Weidel und @Tino_Chrupalla, mit: „Mit großer Sorge haben wir die Angriffe Israels und der USA auf den Iran zur Kenntnis genommen. Wir fordern alle Kriegsparteien zur unbedingten Zurückhaltung auf. Die Zivilbevölkerung und die zivile Infrastruktur müssen geschützt bleiben. Das Völkerrecht sowie das humanitäre Völkerrecht müssen uneingeschränkt eingehalten werden. Die erneute Destabilisierung des Nahen Ostens liegt nicht im deutschen Interesse und muss beendet werden.“

@0xMavobe @Bitpanda @vsntoken Ur Welcome.....

@FkleinwieGross What is your favorite part of the blog?

Incoming: Ecosystem Blog #4 to sweeten your Friday. Happy reading and happy weekend ;)

Strong insights, @FkleinwieGross ! Defining $VSN as the 'economic glue' for the entire Bitpanda stack is a game changer for the long-term vision. I totally agree on building for substance, not just hype. But my take: Continuous excitement over real milestones is what keeps the engine running while you build the future. You provide the foundation, we provide the spark. Looking forward to seeing the alignment in action!

Thanks for the questions, here come my answers ;) The Essential Role of $VSN for Bitpanda This is a fair and important question. The short answer is: VSN is not a marketing layer or a side experiment. It’s the mechanism that connects usage across products into one shared system. Bitpanda operates multiple business lines: brokerage, custody, B2B solutions, wallet infrastructure. What VSN does is create a native layer that can align incentives across those verticals, especially as more activity moves onchain. Could Bitpanda operate without a token? Yes, technically. But the moment you build open infrastructure, serve external builders, and create programmable value flows, a token becomes more than optional. It becomes the coordination layer. It enables fee capture, governance logic, incentive design, and ecosystem alignment in a way that centralised reward systems simply cannot. In that sense, VSN is not interchangeable. It’s the economic glue for an open Web3 stack that sits alongside a regulated fintech company. On leadership visibility: I understand the desire for stronger, more visible signals. Bridging the perception gap between Vision and the broader Bitpanda brand is something we’re aware of. You’ll likely see more integration in communication over time. Whether that takes the form of a joint launch event or another format is secondary. What matters more is that alignment is visible through action, not just announcements. Strategic Leverage & Asset Focus If you zoom out, the most sustainable volume will come from assets that generate recurring activity, not one-off hype cycles. Tokenised traditional financial products and RWAs are strategically important because they bring structured volume, institutional participation, and regulatory clarity. That type of flow is far more stable than purely speculative assets. That said, early validation of the fee model does not need to wait for full-scale RWA adoption. There are shorter-term use cases that can drive meaningful activity: structured yield products, onchain settlement flows, integrations with Bitpanda’s existing user base and tools for builders who want regulation-ready infrastructure. The real objective is not to pick one asset class, but to create an environment where different asset types generate complementary activity. The stronger the overlap between user, institutional, and builder activity, the healthier the fee model becomes. Buybacks, if and when they are driven by ecosystem profits, are the byproduct of that activity. The focus is therefore volume with substance, not volume with volatility. Technological Architecture & Compliance Integration MiCA is not something we work around. It’s something we design for. The chain infrastructure is being built with regulatory requirements in mind from the start. That includes identity layers, compliance tooling, and the ability to separate permissioned from open environments where necessary. The challenge is balance. If you over-optimise for compliance, you lose developer interest. If you ignore compliance, you lose institutional adoption. The goal is to create a layered architecture where institutions can operate in a compliance-ready environment while independent builders still have space to innovate. That’s not easy, but it’s also the opportunity. Europe is unlikely to win by copying unregulated DeFi models. It can win by building infrastructure where compliance and openness coexist. If we get that balance right, Vision does not just become another chain. It becomes a bridge between regulated finance and open Web3. At the core of all three questions is the same theme: long-term alignment. The strategy is not to create short-term excitement. It’s to build infrastructure where usage, compliance, and token economics reinforce each other. If that works, the rest follows.

Community Dom Asks – Focus on Strategy & Commitment ​Today, we take it a step further. We are moving past the surface to ask about the fundamental integration between the Vision Foundation and Bitpanda. ​Here are the three core questions for @FkleinwieGross ​1️⃣ The Essential Role of $VSN for Bitpanda: Flo, while Vision as a project is highly present, the community is asking a fundamental question regarding the overall strategy: Why is the $VSN token anything but interchangeable for Bitpanda as the parent company in the long run? Could you explain why this token mechanism is an essential building block for Bitpanda’s own future? Furthermore, regarding public perception: Many holders would welcome a stronger, more visible commitment from Bitpanda’s top leadership. Are there plans to bridge the gap between the parent company and Vision more clearly in future communications—perhaps through a joint launch event? ​2️⃣ Strategic Leverage & Asset Focus: Looking beyond technical metrics: When you survey the pipeline, which asset classes on the chain do you believe will have the most sustainable impact on ecosystem volume? Is the focus primarily on tokenizing traditional financial products (RWA), or do you see other areas with greater short-term potential to validate the fee model and the subsequent buyback scenario for the token? ​3️⃣ Technological Architecture & Compliance Integration: Regarding the ongoing discussion about the "Chain Stack": To what extent is this infrastructure already optimized to utilize the specific regulatory requirements of MiCA as a genuine competitive advantage? How is the balance maintained between necessary institutional compliance and openness for independent DeFi developers to ensure a vibrant on-chain economy? ​We look forward to insightful answers that solidify the economic vision of this project. ​#VisionFoundation #VSN #RWA #Bitpanda #InstitutionalCrypto #Web3 #MiCA #StrategicVision @vsntoken @BitpandaWallet @Bitpanda_global @eric_demuth
