ANA (pronounced AH-nuh) is the first Assured Value Asset, and serves as the value-capture token for the Nirvana ecosystem. ANA is minted and backed by USDC through the Assured Value Machine (AVM). Each ANA token is born with a floor price, a minimum redemption value that’s mathematically provable, on-chain, and verifiable. The floor is enforced by protocol-owned reserves, not promises, giving ANA an exit path that’s always available, even in times of maximum 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 minted is backed by reserves at a rising floor price. Here’s how to buy it:

​

1. Open the ANA minting panel

Head to the Buy/Sell ANA
Choose your input token: USDC or NIRV.

​

2. Enter an amount

Type in how much USDC or NIRV you want to spend.
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)

​

4. Click “Buy ANA”
