According to a blog post on Thursday, Avalanche9000 is designed to drive scalable, purpose-built Layer 1s, reducing blockchain deployment costs by 99.9% and transaction costs by 25 times.

根據週四的一篇部落格文章，Avalanche9000 旨在驅動可擴展的、專用的 Layer 1，將區塊鏈部署成本降低 99.9%，並將交易成本降低 25 倍。

“在 Galaxy，我們為 Avalanche 提供促進機構參與和長期增長所需的戰略資源和服務，確保他們能夠通過 Avalanche9000 引領下一波區塊鏈採用浪潮。”

The project claims that more than 500 Layer 1 chains are already in development across sectors like tokenization of real-world assets, loyalty, gaming, payments and institutional programs, such as DeFi Kingdoms, Dexalot, Off The Grid and Lamina1.

該項目聲稱，超過 500 條 Layer 1 鏈已經在開發，涉及現實世界資產的代幣化、忠誠度、遊戲、支付和機構項目，例如 DeFi Kingdoms、Dexalot、Off The Grid 和 Lamina1。

This is why ParaFi used the Securitize platform to tokenize a portion of our latest venture fund on Avalanche.”

「快速交易終結性和高吞吐量等架構優勢，與可自訂的虛擬機器結合，使其成為安全、合規地發行和管理代幣化資產的理想平台。這就是為什麼 ParaFi 使用 Securitize 平台對我們最新的 Avalanche 風險基金的一部分進行代幣化。

Earlier on Thursday, Uplink became the first decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) platform to launch on Avalanche.

週四早些時候，Uplink 成為在 Avalanche 上推出的第一個去中心化實體基礎設施網路 (DePIN) 平台。

The platform aims to decentralize internet connectivity by encouraging users to share existing networks and deploy new infrastructure in underserved areas.
