Layer 1

Avalanche

About Portfolio

Avalanche (AVAX) is the native token of Avalanche, a high-performance Layer 1 blockchain platform engineered for scalability, low latency, and customizable subnet infrastructure. It uses a novel consensus protocol optimized for speed and security, enabling rapid finality and flexible deployment models.

Governance & Token Utility

The AVAX token is used to pay transaction fees, participate in staking and validator operations, and provide subnet creation bonds. Token holders govern key parameters via on-chain voting and secure the network through the Avalanche consensus mechanism.
