Odaily Planet Daily News: Layer1 blockchain Avalanche announced the launch of the Avalanche9000 upgrade on Monday. This upgrade introduces many new features, including improvements that make launching 'subnet' blockchains easier and running smart contracts cheaper. It is reported that Avalanche9000 is the largest upgrade the network has seen to date. This update includes improvement proposals ACP-77 (which changed how validators operate) and ACP-125 (which reduced the base fees on the Avalanche main 'C chain' network). The team wrote on X: 'This is the beginning of hundreds of Avalanche L1 launches. Avalanche9000 has reduced the cost of deploying L1 by 99.9%, and with hundreds of L1s being developed on the testnet, we will see an explosive growth in launches over the coming months.'
