#Avalanche is undergoing a serious change regarding the subnets and you should know this.
TLDR:
- Separating Subnet Validators from Primary Network Validators:
- Primary Network Partial Sync
- Removal of 2000 $AVAX requirement
- Moving ownership of Subnet validator set management from P-Chain to Subnets:
- ERC-20/ERC-721/Arbitrary Staking
- Staking Reward Management
- Introducing a continuous P-Chain fee mechanism for Subnet Validators:
- Continuous Subnet Staking
Yes, you have read right;
REMOVAL OF 2000 #AVAX REQUIREMENT!
Node operators need to stake 2000 AVAX to become Primary Network Validators, and most of the time they need 8 validators that makes 16000 AVAX which is too expensive
Subnet Validators also require specific hardware resources for syncing the entire Primary Network. This part is pretty technical and I have to skip the details about it
Regulated entities unable to validate permissionless #blockchains cannot launch Subnets, limiting RWA issuers' participation.
Improperly metered, widely validated Subnets could destabilize the Primary Network or cause issues for Subnets with the Primary Network.
In summary Avalanche community would benefit from a more flexible and cost-effective method for launching permissionless #subnets .
Avalanche team calls it "Elastic Subnets" for now. We will see how it goes!
