What is Avalanche?
Avalanche is a blockchain platform designed to enhance decentralized applications (dApps) and custom blockchains, launched by Ava Labs in 2020. It solves common issues like slow transactions, high fees, and scalability through its unique architecture. Avalanche features three main blockchains: X-Chain for asset creation and exchange, C-Chain for Ethereum-compatible smart contracts, and P-Chain for managing validators and subnets.
Its consensus mechanism, combining Nakamoto and classical methods, allows for around 4,500 transactions per second, with nearly instant finality. Users can create custom subnets within Avalanche, offering great flexibility for specific needs, and paying a small fee in AVAX, its native token. AVAX is used for staking, securing the network with up to 11% annual yield, paying transaction fees, and as the main currency across subnets. Avalanche's compatibility with Ethereum enables easy migration of dApps, offering lower fees and faster transactions. This makes Avalanche a fast, cost-effective, and flexible blockchain solution, appealing to developers and businesses.
