JVPs will be built in partnership with teams Nansen believes in, focused on strategic adjacencies such as on-chain trading, AI-powered systems, tokenized products, and data protocols that leverage Nansen’s intelligence layer.

Each JVP is intended to be a standalone protocol that benefits from Nansen’s resources and community support. Nansen emphasized quality over quantity, stating that only protocols with clear value to its users will be pursued.

All JVPs will be bootstrapped with the Nansen community. Holders of Nansen Points will act as early stakeholders in these projects, giving them a direct role in protocol growth and alignment with the broader ecosystem. The company plans to launch its first JVP in 2026, with more to follow over time.
