Let's take a look to see what Avalanche offers and how it is an interesting prospect for 2021!
Avalanche calls itself a network of networks. What that essentially means is that it is not a single chain running a single type of block. It contains multiple subnets, each running one or more heterogeneous chains.
Founded by Emin Gün Sirer, a Cornell University computer science professor who co-directs the University’s Initiative for Cryptocurrencies and Smart Contracts.
The project is aiming to solve the blockchain trilemma of being extremely fast, highly scalable, and all while maintaining decentralization and security.
