Episode notes

This chapter provides an update on the governance of Avalanche, focusing on ACP 13 which aims to remove requirements for subnet validation. It discusses the impact of this change on Avalanche's value proposition and the ongoing fee for subnet usage. The chapter also touches on other proposals, the trade-offs of building on Ethereum versus Avalanche, and the preferences of institutional players.

In this week's analyst table Dan and Sam are joined by Blockworks research analyst Matt Fiebach and Lightspeed podcast co-host Garret Harper. Today's conversation is a Solana debate diving into Solana's developer traction and documentation quality, the sustainability of low fees, comparisons to Ethereum L2s, and upcoming major ecosystem upgrades and catalysts like Firedancer. To close out the team touches on governance updates on inflation and incentive programs from Synthetix, Arbitrum, and dYdX. Enjoy!
