What makes Avalanche different from Ethereum?

Avalanche and Ethereum are both smart contract platforms, but Avalanche offers faster transaction finality (under 1 second), higher throughput (4,500+ TPS), and lower gas fees. Avalanche also supports subnets, allowing developers to launch custom blockchains, which is not natively possible on Ethereum.

What are subnets in Avalanche?

Subnets are custom, interoperable blockchains built on Avalanche. They allow developers and enterprises to define their own rules, validators, and tokenomics. Subnets are ideal for use cases like gaming, enterprise applications, or regulatory-compliant blockchains, and they run in parallel without congesting the main network.

Is Avalanche environmentally friendly?

Compared to Proof-of-Work blockchains like Bitcoin, Avalanche is considered energy-efficient. Its consensus mechanism does not rely on mining but instead uses lightweight network polling among validators, which drastically reduces energy consumption. This makes Avalanche a green blockchain solution suitable for sustainability-conscious developers and enterprises.
