Farid Rached is the former Ecosystem Growth Manager at Avalanche. Pushing a decentralised future forward by growing the development, exposure and adoption of Avalanche. Formerly at Magic Labs, Fortmatic.nAvalanche is the first smart contracts platform that can confirm transactions in under one second, is interoperable with all Ethereum tooling, and capable of throughput orders of magnitude greater than existing blockchain networks (4,500+ transactions/second).nIt achieves strong safety guarantees without compromising decentralization or requiring sharding and enables millions of independent validators to participate as full block producers.nTo date, Avalanche’s high performance attracted decentralized projects looking to escape the pain points of slow transaction throughput and settlement speeds of legacy blockchain platforms.
