History

"Avail will be spun off completely from Polygon Labs. The Avail protocol co-creator Anurag Arjun, who has helmed the development of Avail from its inception, is moving out of Polygon Labs and will become Avail’s sole steward and will continue to lead the project in a separate, standalone and self-funded entity."

How it works

  • From their X (26-2-2024):

"Avail is laying a foundation for a fundamentally integrated blockchain future where separate ecosystems can implement their own technology and scaling solutions while remaining connected via a trust-minimized and secure coordination layer.

Fusion Security enables additive crypto-economic security using asset classes other than the native Avail token (like BTC & ETH) to serve and secure the Avail network."

Fees

Upgrades

Staking

  • From a thread on different DA layers (21-1-2024):

"Avail uses nominated proof of stake, and they support up to 1000 validators. They could remain operational even if the majority of full nodes went down, as they sample from their p2p network of light nodes."

Competition

  • From a thread on different DA layers (21-1-2024):

"Avail uses the Grandpa + Babe Consensus inherited from Polkadot SDK, which has a slower block finality time compared to Tendermint. However, since Avail also uses KZG Commitments for validity proofs, they verify the accuracy of transactions faster than Celestia.

"Celestia and Avail use large blocks, data availability sampling, and light nodes to serve increasing demand. EigenDA uses DACs, which are also considered scalable, but more centralized."
