Description

Avalanche (AVAX) is a high-performance, scalable blockchain platform designed for decentralized applications (dApps) and custom blockchain networks. Launched in 2020, Avalanche uses a novel consensus mechanism called Avalanche Consensus, which allows for high throughput, low latency, and near-instant finality. AVAX, the platform's native token, is used for transaction fees, staking, and governance. Avalanche aims to create a highly interoperable ecosystem where multiple blockchains can exist and communicate, making it a popular choice for developers and enterprises.
