About Avalanche (AVAX)

Avalanche is a decentralized, Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible blockchain network launched in September 2020 by Emin Gün Sirer, founder of Ava Labs. The network is powered by a Proof of Stake (Pos) consensus mechanism, and features three integrated blockchains, Exchange Chain (X-Chain), Platform Chain (P-Chain), and Contract Chain (C-Chain):

- X Chain is used for creating and transferring digital assets

- P Chain is used for staking, validator management, and L1 creation 

- C Chain is used for supporting Ethereum decentralized apps (dapps), and Ethereum services 

The native cryptocurrency of Avalanche is called AVAX. The AVAX token is ERC-20, meaning it is compatible with the Ethereum network. It is a utility token that is largely used for transaction fees on the network, staking, and governance on Avalanche, as well as within dapps.

Token type: Utility/DeFi
