New Here? Welcome to the Avalanche Network

Published by AVAX on

Avalanche is a feature-rich and blazing-fast decentralized network that enables anyone to transact and build applications in a secure, scalable, and reliable manner. $AVAX is the native token of the Avalanche network and is required for transactions to cover tx fees. Avalanche is built on three key principles: security, scalability, and reliability. Avalanche achieves these principles through a unique consensus mechanism called Avalanche Consensus. Avalanche consensus is more secure, scalable, and reliable than traditional consensus mechanisms such as proof-of-work and proof-of-stake. Avalanche Consensus is the biggest breakthrough since Nakamoto. It uses repeated random sub-sampling of the entire network to quickly achieve consensus with minimal overhead per node for incredible performance.

The primary network of Avalanche is divided into three interoperable chains, the X-chain, C-chain, and P chain. The first Blockchain, the X- chain, stands for exchange chain useful for the creation, management, and transactions of digital assets. It is based on the ‘DAG’ model, another unique form of the consensus model. The second Blockchain, the C-chain, is dedicated to smart contracts, or we can say it’s a version of EVM that powers the development of dApps on the Avalanche protocol. Lastly, the P-chain coordinates validators and creates subnetworks and staking mechanisms. With Avalanche the fastest eco-friendly smart contract platform, all the chains included in the primary network are secured by the full staked value of the network. In addition, Avalanche consensus is inclusive and not restricted to a small number of validators like other blockchains and can scale to millions of validators.

The maximum supply of AVAX is capped at 720 million tokens, but AVAX users govern how fast new coins are minted. AVAX holders can control the rate of new coin creation by voting to adjust the amount of AVAX that is paid as a reward for adding a new block to the Avalanche blockchain. Transaction costs vary depending on the type of transaction and Avalanche’s network congestion. All fees are burned (removed from circulation) ensuring $AVAX becomes scarcer over time. Avalanche users vote to decide the Avalanche transaction fee, making AVAX fees subject to change. High uptime and fast response times can both boost the amount of AVAX rewards that a network participant can earn for processing AVAX transactions.

Scalability

Avalanche has been designed to be a revolutionary Blockchain protocol with massive scalability, efficiency, and robustness. Its core consensus engine supports and manages hundreds of millions of global networks interconnected via different low and high-powered devices. All these networks operate firmly in a peer-to-peer system without high latencies, ensuring high transactions per second.

Security

Avalanche provides high security and reliability. Classic consensus protocols could withstand attackers but failed when overwhelmed. In the same way, the Nakamoto consensus model cannot ensure security if 51% of miners are malicious. Contrary to both, Avalanche provides robust security.

Decentralization

Decentralization is the core principle of Blockchain technology and all of its emerging protocols. The Avalanche platform was designed to offer exactly this. This enables multiple client implementations across the network with no centralized control. Avalanche does not require users, developers, and miners to know or trust each other. In doing so, Avalanche avoids disagreements among users with different biases.

Interoperability

Avalanche has been designed to provide a flexible and interoperable infrastructure for the globally interconnected networks willing to trade assets or develop applications. This system supports diverse blockchain development on the protocol using value-neutral technology. Avalanche also makes blockchain migration easy and supports multiple programming languages and virtual machines to align with multiple deployment scripts. Making onboarding an easier process.

Jump in!

With its innovative consensus mechanism and other key features, Avalanche is poised to become the go-to platform for building decentralized applications for a wide range of industries, shaping the future of blockchain development. Whether you are looking to launch your own dApp or find a solution for secure and reliable transactions within your field, Avalanche most definitely has what you need.
