What is Avalanche?
Distinguished from other Layer-1 blockchains, Avalanche stands out for its unique architecture that offers industry-leading scalability, speed, and flexibility. Its consensus mechanism facilitates rapid transactions with minimal environmental impact. Today it's the 11th largest chain in the world (with over $8B in market cap). Learn more on avax.network
💡 Understanding Layer-1 blockchains: A Layer-1 blockchain is the foundational layer of a blockchain network, where transactions are processed and secured. These networks, like Ethereum, Bitcoin, and Avalanche, provide the core infrastructure for recording transactions. They are essential because they maintain the network’s security, consensus, and protocol rules, forming the bedrock for decentralized applications and digital assets—like the Republic Note.
Why Republic chose Avalanche for the Note
Selecting Avalanche for the Republic Note was a strategic decision influenced by several important factors:
Scale and speed
Known for its infinite scalability, Avalanche ensures that Republic Note holders will experience lightning-fast, smooth, and low-cost transactions—reasons that keep Republic in good company. Blue-chip brands like Amazon Web Services and Mastercard have partnered with Avalanche for its strong technical capabilities.
Customization
Our commitment to building on Avalanche includes plans to launch a dedicated Subnet next year, offering a purpose-built network specifically designed for the Republic Note. This move will bring Republic Note to its own bespoke blockchain, with dedicated scalable security, privacy, and regulatory compliance—all integral to a robust digital security environment.
Mission alignment
Beyond the technical advantages, our partnership with Ava Labs, the team behind Avalanche, is driven by a shared commitment to building a more inclusive future for financial markets through tokenization.
Eco-friendliness
When it comes to the energy required to run, no other blockchain comes close. According to the Crypto Carbon Ratings Institute, Avalanche consumes the same energy as only 46 US households each year — 35,000x less energy than Ethereum and 200,000x less than Bitcoin.
