Avalanche upgrade attracts top projects, cost advantages boost the prosperity of dedicated chain ecosystems.
The Avalanche technology architecture attracts well-known projects to launch exclusive chains
Recently, some highly anticipated projects have begun or are planning to launch dedicated chains based on the Avalanche technology framework. This trend stems from the Avalanche9000 upgrade implemented last December, which is regarded as the "merger" of Avalanche and has comprehensively restructured the validator economic model.
The ACP-77 proposal changes the originally high fixed staking requirement (2000 AVAX) to a more flexible pay-as-you-go model. Data from a research analyst indicates that this adjustment in cost structure greatly increases the attractiveness of launching the Avalanche L1 chain, with its costs potentially lower than those of other popular blockchain solutions.
In addition to reducing initial costs, the Avalanche L1 chain can also leverage the existing infrastructure of the C chain (the liquidity hub of Avalanche). This means that the new L1 network can easily access centralized exchange deposit channels without having to pay high direct integration fees. For infrastructure like oracles, RPC services, and indexers, if an independent L1 were to build from scratch, the startup costs could reach up to $13 million.
Avalanche's inter-chain communication protocol enables L1 networks to transfer assets conveniently between the C chain and other chains. For example, the connection between a game-specific chain and the C chain has become one of the most active bidirectional communication routes in cross-chain communication.
The value capture mechanism is another key factor in choosing Avalanche L1. These networks can establish clear value accumulation channels for project tokens by managing their own validator sets, issuing block rewards, and so on. In contrast, Ethereum's Layer 2 networks have more limited options in this regard.
In addition, AvaCloud's HyperSDK provides a high level of L1 chain customization, which has a clear advantage compared to the current L2 solutions based on rollup technology.
In terms of the value accumulation of the AVAX token, 100% of all transaction fees on the C-Chain will be burned, with an average monthly burn value of approximately $453,000 in 2025. Meanwhile, a large amount of AVAX is being used for staking to maintain the operation of the mainnet, with the current staking amount at around $8 billion. According to new regulations, each Avalanche L1 validator node is also required to pay a small amount of AVAX as a fee each month.
Avalanche's development strategy is similar to that of other blockchain projects: promoting long-term growth by reducing short-term gains. Recent network upgrades have significantly reduced transaction fees on the C chain, with an overall decrease of 96% from the beginning of 2025 to now. The future "asynchronous execution" plan is expected to further lower costs.
Although Avalanche's value capture has not yet reached a significant scale, its development path has become clear. With 66 active L1 chains continuously operating in the ecosystem and more chains being integrated, Avalanche is gradually building its network effect advantage.
