What is Avalanche (AVAX)?

Avalanche is a layer-one blockchain that is also a platform for decentralized applications (dApps) and custom-built blockchain networks. Identified as an Ethereum competitor, Avalanche aims to be the best smart contract platform in the industry with a higher transaction output of 6,500 transactions per second. Avalanche also claims this increase in speed will not compromise scalability either.

Avalanche built an innovative architecture to support this claim. Avalanche Network consists of not one, but three unique blockchains: the C-Chain, P-Chain, and X-Chain. Each chain has a specific purpose and uses different consensus mechanisms depending on its use case. 

AVAX is the network's native token and can be used by holders as a passive income generator. AVAX can be staked in a way that creates interest in the network.
