The blockchain industry is at an inflection point. As transaction volumes surge globally, it's becoming clear that relying on a single Layer 1 won't cut it anymore. Network congestion, scalability bottlenecks, and fee pressures are forcing developers and users to explore alternatives. Multi-chain architecture represents the next evolution—distributed computing power across parallel networks to handle exponential growth in demand. This is precisely the design philosophy behind Avalanche, architected to address these constraints head-on. Whether it's throughput, finality, or interoperability, the infrastructure we're building today will define how Web3 scales tomorrow.
