On Monday, December 16, Avalanche introduces its largest update yet – Avalanche9000. This upgrade simplifies and significantly reduces the cost of building and maintaining blockchains while greatly enhancing the network.


New Blockchains Incoming


Avalanche9000 enables more developers to create their own Layer 1 blockchains (L1s). With over 500 projects already in development, the network is expected to grow substantially and become more dynamic.


Lower Costs, Greater Accessibility


The cost of launching a blockchain is reduced by up to 99.9%. Transaction fees on Avalanche drop by up to 96%, making the network more accessible for both developers and users.


ICM - Avalanche Interchain MessagingICM stands for "Avalanche Interchain Messaging" and allows seamless communication between different blockchains within the Avalanche network. This means blockchains can exchange information and value without relying on expensive or slow third-party solutions. For developers, this provides greater flexibility to build applications leveraging multiple blockchains. For users, it ensures faster and more cost-efficient interactions across the ecosystem.


$40 Million in Incentives


To drive innovation, Avalanche is launching Retro9000, a program offering up to $40 million in grants for developers building on Avalanche9000. These incentives reward new ideas, tools, and solutions that strengthen the ecosystem.


With Avalanche9000, the foundation is set for a more interconnected, scalable, and efficient blockchain world, opening greater possibilities for innovation than ever before.
