Avalanche runs three blockchains at once, and each one has a different job
Avalanche (@avax) splits its main network, called the Primary Network, across the C-Chain, the P-Chain, and the X-Chain.
The C-Chain is EVM-compatible, so apps built for Ethereum can run there. Since September’s Helicon upgrade, the network can lock in the order of new blocks while still running the transactions in earlier ones.
The P-Chain tracks validators, handles staking and the launch of new Avalanche chains. The X-Chain is where tokens are created and traded, including $AVAX.
All three chains charge fees in AVAX, and each chain keeps separate balances, so AVAX has to be moved over before it can be used on another chain.
Team1 Break Episode 02: From Voice to Vote
Mason Lynaugh, Executive Director of @standwithcrypto, is joining us tomorrow.
Stand With Crypto is the largest grassroots crypto advocacy organization in the U.S., with 3M+ advocates. Mason helped build it from the ground up, growing the community, launching chapters in all 50 states, and starting the college chapter program. Their focus is turning crypto users into a real political force: clearer rules, pro-crypto candidates, and actual voter turnout.
On this episode we’ll get into:
• How their voter education and GOTV actually operates
• What they’re prioritizing heading into the midterms
• The role of state and college chapters
• Practical ways builders and community members can get involved
October 22 | 1 PM ET / 12 PM CT
