I’ve been looking at Vana and its Data DAOs, and this one caught my eye. Quick rundown of what’s going on with the dFusion token:

• Liquidity sits at about $40k on DexScreener. https://dexscreener.com/vana/0x710344a5c8d60959efde9da3e359b1a87872a766
• A couple of weeks ago dFusion sold a batch of Telegram-chat data for $25k. They didn’t pocket the whole haul from what I hear, part of the proceeds went straight back into liquidity for the token.
• Current stats: 6 000+ users have pushed more than 15 million chats through the platform. The bigger the pile of data, the more they can sell.

The real kicker is the future funding:

GEM Digital has a $10 million commit-to-buy waiting in the wings once dFusion hits 50 k users and lands on a couple of exchanges.

Why I’m Watching

1. Fresh revenue loop – Selling real data and recycling some of the cash into the token is a nice change from the usual “raise first, maybe build later” playbook.
2. Small pool = big swings – Forty grand of liquidity is peanuts. One decent buy can shove the price around in a hurry. If that GEM commitment ever fires, things could get spicy.
3. Opt-in data sales – Users choose to share chats and actually get paid, which feels way fairer than the Web 2 model where your data gets sold and you get nothing.
