Super excited to announce I have joined the Developer Relations team at
@avalabsofficial
to further the development of
@avalancheavax
, subnets, and the entire industry as a whole
Here is the reasoning that contributed to my decision 👇
@shaunmmaguire
adding a link below this tweet of everyone killed so far — click sort by age and you’ll see SIX PAGES of children killed under the age of 1 years old before you see ages above that.
Here’s some more statistics for you:
133 babies below the age of one
482 toddlers (1-3 years
In the past month, the
@Avax
network has seen over 1.7 million smart contracts deployed
That's more than Ethereum & two of it's top layer 2 scaling solutions COMBINED (Ethereum - 773k + Arbitrum - less than 100k + Optimism - less than 25k)
The devs are building on Avalanche.
A lot has been made recently about the conversation surrounding
@avalancheavax
Subnets and
@0xPolygon
Supenets
What are the differences, which one has more features, which one has actual use cases, etc
Here's why Avalanche Subnets are the future of blockchain development👇
The Move Virtual Machine is coming to
@Avax
"Movement" - A modular Move based layer 1 launching as an Avalanche subnet
@Avax
is more than a single VM platform
It is a network for launching fully-scalable, tailor-made, and secure blockchains from scratch.
Really enjoyed giving a presentation on
@avalancheavax
subnets to
@UCSanDiego
’s blockchain club’s,
@BlockchainAtSD
, internal team
The next wave of developer adoption will come from bright students like these 💪🏽
The
@avalabsofficial
engineering team can’t stop shipping
Today, we are super excited to announce the beta launch of the Glacier API
Getting and indexing data from Avalanche, Ethereum, and now Subnets has never been easier 👇
We are proud to announce that NodeKit is coming out of stealth. We are building a Shared Sequencer L1 called SEQ. This will be utilized by NodeKit Chain at launch which is our EVM based Sovereign Rollup.
We just completed two hackathons we were running & I am currently combing through the submissions and let me just say...
It is clear that
@avax
is becoming the home for developers who want to experiment by building ambitious tech and real use cases
So much to look forward to.
Talking EVM precompiles, Custom Virtual Machines & the future of how we onboard developers/users into blockchain by simplifying UX
Avalanche builders are the best!
The True Network Value (TNV) is a interesting metric coined by
@TheTieIO
, which defines the comprehensive worth of a blockchain network
TNV is derived from 3 primary factors:
Block Size, Number of Validators, and Time to Finality
@Avax
currently has the second highest TNV.
Chainlink functions are super cool
being able to connect smart contracts to Web2 APIs is going to be game changing for the adoption of SCs in traditional technology
very exciting stuff + looking forward to seeing real example implementations
@chainlink
Great conversation regarding the future of the cross chain interoperability
Looking forward to seeing IBC connectivity in the
@avax
ecosystem & across other blockchains.
Many underestimate the technical leap forward that
@avax
provides from its predecessors
Solves issues of scalability & security, all while maintaining the fastest transaction speeds and customizability available of any other blockchain today
Soon they’ll realize.
Bitcoin and Ethereum blockchains are currently heavily congested
~400,000 Bitcoin txs pending (~16hrs to clear at ~7tps)
~200,000 Ethereum txs pending (~4hrs to clear at ~15tps)
~0 Solana txs pending (~0hrs to clear at ~5000tps)
Direct result of memecoin speculation,
@avax
is the only platform that allows you to launch fully custom blockchain networks (running one or multiple blockchains with any virtual machine) with custom validator sets, all interconnected and able to send messages to each other.
working on a cool
@chainlink
functions project on the
@avax
fuji network that leverages twitter's api to track positive and negative sentiment
primary goal of this is to fetch sentiment data from Twitter and store it on-chain for further analysis or use in other smart contracts.
amazing to see how this sketch of the
@avax
Subnet theory has materialized over time
when the network was architected - the idea was to have many individual blockchains all connected
love seeing the vision come to life in real time

@snowpeerio
Super excited to see developers being able to leverage
@thirdweb
’s suite of tooling + easy smart contract deployments when launching a custom blockchain with
@AvaCloud
Ideating, launching, and testing applications & custom blockchains at the speed of a few clicks 💪🏽
🚨 ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨
We're excited to be partnering w/
@AvaCloud
to bring our full web3 stack to developers on every
@Avax
subnet. 🔺
Launch independent subnets that:
→ Have ultra-fast transaction speeds
→ Launch with thirdweb, out-of-the box
→ Maintain their own security
🧵
Reminder to all Avalanche validators:
Cortina (AvalancheGO
@v1
.10.0) is out now & will be activating on April 25th at 11AM ET.
You MUST update your nodes prior to this date otherwise they will not be able to process new blocks post upgrade.
Firewood: one of the largest advancements in blockchain storage has arrived
So thankful to be apart of an organization that is at the forefront of distributed systems/blockchain research & development

Be sure to tune in for a great discussion!
After nearly six months of private access, I'm opening to the public.
Across 5 blockchains, keeps live track of indexed GitHub repositories and, more importantly, the number of unique contributors within each chain 📊
@sayinshallah
Avalanche is a network of multiple blockchains — that can support multiple virtual machines (EVM, Move, Solana, Custom VMs, etc) and has a novel consensus mechanism that is a huge advancement over classical & nakamoto consensus
if you think just within that network - one of the
#Avalanche
is a VM Agnostic consensus layer that powers a chain of chains with near instant finality and infinitely scalable validators
How could you not want to build here?
Theres a lot of benefits to building on AVAX like:
- A faster time to finality
- Customizable vms
- A thriving and dedicated community
Listen to
@asimfiles
talk about the one huge benefit that gets overlooked but makes
@avalancheavax
one of the most unique blockchains in crypto!
Another day, another breakthrough. ✨
Introducing:
Encrypted ERC-20 (eERC-20) Standard! 🔐
Using our custom homomorphic encryption scheme and zero-knowledge proofs, you can now use your tokens without compromising your financial privacy. 💰
No hardware modules, costly FHE, or
One of the most important advancements in
@avalancheavax
is the use of subnets

Parallel transaction processing using the Move Virtual Machine of top on Avalanche consensus leading to an average Transactions Per Second of 145k+
Now imagine that TPS with sub second finality…
Account abstraction is now available to all developers on the
@avax
network
A shiny new SDK to deploy applications with:
- Gassless transactions
- Batched Transactions
- EIP-4337 compliant contract wallets
Powering a user experience that is indistinguishable from web2.
Many forget that
@avax
&
@cosmos
are fundamentally very aligned
Was awesome to meet the devs building CosmosSDK, CosmWasm, & IBC… and excited to see these some of these tools coming to Avalanche.
And that wraps up
@CosmoverseHQ
for the
@avax
DevRel team
We had a great time getting introduced to the Cosmos community and meeting the developers present
Excited to see further continued collaboration between the developers in both ecosystems!
going to be doing a cool fundamentals smart contract workshop tomorrow w the Chainlink DevRel team on deploying smart contracts using
@chainlink

The issue of centralization inherent in all Layer 2 sequencers poses a huge problem for the industry going forward
Given the amounts of value transacted via L2s, addressing this issue effectively or utilizing new solutions becomes crucial to preempt potential failures.
🗣 Calling all developers 🗣
Tomorrow
@_patrickogrady
is hosting the first
#Avalanche
Developer Community Call, a forum for devs to share, discuss, and learn about recent updates to the Avalanche platform.
Stream live on YT and here on TW at 12pm ET!
With the emphasis on moving away from centralized custody being one of the main topics in the industry right now,
@avalabsofficial
is making key strides with the launch of
@coreapp
Core is aiming to be one of the top self custodial solutions in the market
Let’s discuss why 👇
until now, Transactions per Second (TPS) has been the go to metric to guage the speed/processing power of a blockchain
but... TPS is not a fully encompassing metric and a more holistic standard should be used
i believe Time to Finality is standard
Tribalism in this space often results in a zero sum game
Instead, having real value driven conversations surrounding the tech is key
& despite the perception - there quite alot of overlap between
@cosmos
&
@avax
Looking forward to discussing that overlap at
@CosmoverseHQ
We are delighted to introduce you to the next speaker at this year’s Cosmoverse ⚛️
@asimfiles

@avalabsofficial
See you in Istanbul, Usman 🇹🇷
We just released Banff 14 (AvalancheGO

3/ With Ethereum, Avalanche, and general EVM & ZK Rollup compatibility with IBC on the way, it’s important to recognize the need for evolution.
The new brand paves the way to connect future generations of developers with our protocol’s proven track record and technical promise.
In the past few months, the
@avalabsofficial
team has been shipping integral advancements to the tech + real world partnerships that are providing real use cases to bring the subnet theory into reality and in the hands of developers/enterprises.
Here's some of the best of both:
#Avalanche
is the premier development platform for builders creating blockchain applications of any type
Happy to be helping contribute to the ecosystem in an way I can 🤝

Problem solved:
Come talk shop w us in the AVAX Forum
all this fud surrounding Avalanche in the past week has me so excited
reminds me so much of BTC guys thrashing ETH when it started showcasing the power of what it could do
the tech is being tested right now & pushing forward
pumped for what’s coming.
Was great getting to showcase the power of
@avax
to the developers at Unfold
India is full of awesome engineering talent and we are very excited to see what they build with the tech this weekend

@sayinshallah
tweeting an awful lot about avax for someone who doesn’t care
we welcome constructive criticism and discussion - it’s needed in this space
but fudding without any knowledge does no good to anyone
imagine it
deploying Solana based SVM smart contracts whilst leveraging instant transaction finality from Avalanche consensus & the power of the HyperSDK
would love to chat w some gud Solana devs who want to make this happen
happy to chat about how we can support
@asimfiles
I think if an app becomes big enough such that it doesn't want to share the base layer anymore then yes an app chain is definitely sensible
I'd like to see something like an SVM based appchain using hyperSDK on Avalanche
One of the strongest commitments of Ava Labs is receiving community input in regards to how the technology should evolve over time
Would love to see this new community proposal framework spark some good discussions and innovation for the network
Introducing Avalanche Community Proposals (ACPs).
ACPs are a framework for proposing improvements and gathering consensus around changes to the Avalanche Network.
Anyone in the community can create an ACP and start a discussion about it here ⬇️
4/ To speed up the setup process (devs are impatient), avalanche-ops spins up a custom Primary Network with no history so that a full devnet can be generated in ~30 minutes or so.
This custom network is private with access being scoped to the deployer IP.
Bittersweet to announce that this marks my last week at
@ChainstackHQ
What an amazing ride it has been for the past year to be apart of a leading blockchain infrastructure platform and to learn alongside some of the smartest minds in the industry
Some of my highlights 👇
There has not been a solution that combines the privacy and compliance offered by a permissioned blockchain with the scability of public blockchain networks - leaving the door closed for enterprises and institutions interact with our industry in a meaningful way
Until today.
A true testament of Avalanche's technological stickiness and a result of the great developers who are taking on highly complex and ambitious projects within the
@avax
ecosystem
Excited for what’s more to come.
Interesting to see
@avax
as one of the most resilient ecosystems for Active Developers through the bear market.
