### What's Vanta?

Vanta is the official mascot of Avantis — a cheetah that represents the raw instinct of everything we believe great trading should feel like: fast, precise, instinctive, and focused.

Vanta embodies the energy of every trader who acts with confidence, cuts through the noise, and moves fast enough to win. More than a mascot, Vanta is a symbol. A reminder that in this game, the quickest thinkers and the sharpest movers win.

This isn’t just branding — **it’s a mindset**.

### Why the Cheetah?

Because cheetahs don’t hesitate.

They scan, they sprint, they strike: with purpose and speed.

That’s the kind of edge Avantis traders move with.

* ⚡ **Speed**: Trade execution like a predator chasing its mark
* 🎯 **Precision**: No flinching. No overthinking. Just clean entries and exits
* 🕶️ **Stealth**: Silent until it’s time to make a move

In this space, markets shift in seconds. Cheetahs were built for that world.
