Avalanche (AVAX) — Onchain News & Whale Tracking

Avalanche sees new positive developments, but its on-chain data still lags far behind historical highs.

According to official announcements, Avalanche will serve as the core ledger technology provider for the clearing process of the NYSE-linked tokenized securities platform, delivering underlying ledger infrastructure to the platform’s clearing institution. Following the news, AVAX briefly rose as much as 6.4% and is currently trading at $8.52. In terms of network activity, over the past seven days, the number of transactions on Avalanche C-Chain reached around 2.3 million, with a daily average of approximately 329,000, marking a roughly 13% increase from the prior week. However, the rebound in transaction count has not translated to stronger DeFi trading demand: seven-day DEX volume over the same period stood at $471 million, down roughly 18% week-over-week, while on-chain fees totaled around $1.5 million, a 34% week-over-week drop. Funding metrics also show divergence. Avalanche’s current DeFi total value locked (TVL) is around $608 million, up roughly 14% week-over-week, driven primarily by growth in protocols such as Aave V4; however, on-chain stablecoin holdings stand at approximately $1.32 billion, still below previous levels. Compared to its historical peak metrics, Avalanche’s current state remains dismal. Its TVL hit around $11.5 billion in December 2021, and is now only about 5% of that peak; stablecoin holdings reached roughly $4.7 billion in March 2022, and currently equal 28% of that level. The seven-day DEX trading volume peaked at around $6.7 billion, and is now just 7% of that high. Transaction volume also lags far behind its peak period: Avalanche C-Chain’s seven-day transaction count hit approximately 41.8 million in December 2023, and is now around 2.3 million.

Avalanche will provide the clearing ledger for a NYSE-linked tokenized securities platform.

According to Avalanche’s official blog, Avalanche will serve as the core ledger technology provider for the clearing process of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE)-affiliated tokenized securities platform, supplying the underlying ledger infrastructure for the clearing institution powering the upcoming platform. The NYSE’s parent company, Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), operates across trading platforms, clearing, fixed income, and data services. Dennis Lee, head of digital issuance at the NYSE, noted that the ledger for recording and settling transactions needs to be fast, reliable, cost-predictable, and able to control participants—requirements Avalanche meets. The official emphasized that financial institutions do not need to rework their operations around a single blockchain; instead, infrastructure should be designed based on market demand. For market operators, dedicated infrastructure grants greater control over performance, capacity, cost, permissions, and system operation methods.

Japan's largest security token platform Progmat has completed its migration to Avalanche, with over $2.7 billion in assets officially brought on-chain.

Japan’s largest securities token issuance and management platform Progmat has completed its migration to the Avalanche blockchain, moving all its managed tokenized assets worth over 452 billion yen (approximately $2.7 billion) from the Corda 5-based permissioned blockchain to a dedicated Avalanche Layer 1. The migration, announced in February this year, was completed as planned without disrupting the normal operations of financial institutions. Progmat stated that the new architecture no longer relies on a single blockchain, enabling future multi-chain expansion. All smart contracts have been migrated to the EVM environment; while retaining all original functionalities, the processing speed of asset equity transfers has increased 3 to 5 times, and transaction finalization time has been shortened to less than 2 seconds. Originally incubated by Mitsubishi UFJ Trust Bank (MUFG), Japan’s largest bank, Progmat became an independent operation in 2023. It is currently backed by major Japanese financial institutions including Mizuho Bank, the Tokyo Stock Exchange, and SBI, holding a 53% market share in Japan’s securities token market and accounting for 64.6% of the total issuance scale of securities tokens. Its business covers most tokenized real estate and corporate bond projects. Additionally, Progmat established a working group on Japanese government bond tokenization and on-chain repo in May this year, collaborating with asset management institutions, banks, and securities firms to research tokenized Japanese government bonds and explore use cases such as 24/7 trading and T+0 real-time settlement.

Trump Iran War Polling 'Avalanche': Majority of Americans Just Want Troops Home ASAP

May 27 — A string of recent polls reveal the American public is rapidly losing patience and trust in Trump’s Iran policy, with growing numbers calling the conflict not worth the cost and demanding a swift end to U.S. military action in the region.

On July 28th, Gyroscope released a report on Twitter, presenting the performance of LP Yield and Dynamic Liquidity Pool (Dynamic E-CLP) on the ETH/USDC trading pair on the Base chain. When measured by the Markouts metric, the pool's execution efficiency significantly surpassed that of mainstream DEXs. Specifically: - It outperformed Uniswap v2 by 3.5 times. - It outperformed Uniswap v3 by up to 33 times (based on total yield). Markouts are used to measure the transaction execution efficiency of liquidity pools. If assets are bought and sold at a price better than the market price, it is regarded as positive Markouts, indicating that LPs are actually earning spread income. This metric is independent of asset trends and can evaluate the quality of market-making strategies. Additionally, Gyroscope's Dynamic Liquidity Pool has now been deployed on Avalanche, initially supporting the AVAX/USDC and GYD trading pairs, and has initiated LP incentives with an APR of up to 107%.
