Avalanche is a smart contract platform designed for scalability and modularity. It differentiates itself from other Layer 1s through its Primary Network architecture, which is split into three built-in blockchains:
X-Chain (Exchange): For creating and trading assets.
P-Chain (Platform): For coordinating validators and creating custom blockchains.
C-Chain (Contract): An implementation of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) used for running dApps.

The ecosystem has recently executed its largest network upgrade to date, focusing on reducing the cost of deploying application-specific chains:
Avalanche 9000 & ACP-77 (2025): The network deployed the Avalanche 9000 upgrade, which included the pivotal ACP-77 proposal. This update rebranded Subnets to "Avalanche Layer 1s" and removed the mandatory 2,000 AVAX staking requirement for L1 validators. Instead, L1s now pay a dynamic, continuous fee to the P-Chain, significantly reducing the capital required to launch a sovereign blockchain.
California DMV Digitization: In a major institutional deployment, the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) utilized an Avalanche L1 to digitize over 42 million car titles. This integration allows residents to claim and transfer vehicle titles digitally, utilizing the blockchain for fraud detection and record immutability.
Teleporter (Cross-Chain Messaging): The activation of Teleporter (built on Avalanche Warp Messaging) enabled native communication between the C-Chain and various L1s, allowing assets and data to move across the ecosystem without third-party bridges.
The AVAX token serves as the central economic unit of the Primary Network:
Fee Burning: Uniquely, 100% of transaction fees paid in AVAX on the Primary Network are burned, permanently removing them from the supply.
Staking Security: To validate the Primary Network, node operators must stake a minimum of 2,000 AVAX. Delegators can participate with a minimum of 25 AVAX.
Unit of Account: AVAX is the base currency for all transactions on the C-Chain and serves as the primary bridge asset for the wider L1 ecosystem.
Consensus: Avalanche Consensus (Snowman)
Architecture: Triple-Chain (X, P, C) + Layer 1s
Total Supply: Fixed cap of 720 Million AVAX
Key Upgrade: Avalanche 9000 (ACP-77)
