ANA is created when users deposit USDC into the Assured Value Machine (AVM) and can always be redeemed back through the same mechanism. Every ANA is born with a verifiable floor, the minimum value it can be redeemed for on-chain. This isn’t a target. It’s a mathematical guarantee. The floor is enforced by protocol-owned reserves, not promises, giving ANA an exit path that’s always available, even in times of market stress.

​
How to Buy ANA

ANA is minted by depositing USDC or NIRV into the protocol through the official Nirvana interface. The AVM determines the price, and every ANA you mint is backed by reserves with a rising floor. Here’s how to do it:

​
1. Open the ANA minting panel

The system will calculate how much ANA you’ll receive after the swap fee.
Below the input, you’ll see:
  • Fee rate
  • Net ANA received
  • Price impact

3. Adjust your settings (optional)
