This is important because the world moves fast and most blockchains are slow, especially in terms of finality:

• Solana: 13 seconds

Instead of attempting to shove the entire global economy into a World Computer, Avalanche creates a branching, seamlessly connected web of blockchains that can scale limitlessly and be tailored to each specific use case.
Starting to see why the name "Web3" makes sense?

The first thing you should know about Avalanche Consensus is that it's the largest breakthrough in decentralized technology since Nakamoto's Bitcoin. A completely novel mechanism, Avalanche was developed by PhD researchers
@el33th4xor
and
@kevinsekniqi
at
@Cornell
.

45
Using repeated randomized sub-sampling, Avalanche consensus is fast, cheap and scalable without sacrificing decentralization. Throw in a DAG and you've got TPS and settlement speed comparable to Visa 💳
2

45
To recap:
Avalanche not only provides a game changing consensus mechanism, it can also effectively clone any blockchain via a subnet for application specific purposes. What's better than ETH, Solana, Aptos and Sui? The best parts of them. All in one network.

So what makes a protocol Web3 ready? Unsurprisingly, many of the same factors that allowed the internet to explode:
💨 Fast settlement
🌐 Scalable architecture
🤸♂️ Flexible customization
🔗 Powerful interoperability

This is the equivalent of TCP/IP in the 90s - which resulted in the birth of the modern Internet.

From a business perspective this creates a wide moat: if the industry moves to a new Virtual Machine standard, Subnets can evolve with it. If a video game needs high performance, the subnet can require validators with advanced hardware requirements to generate extremely high TPS.

This opens the door for TradFi adoption, HIPPA compliance, government programs and much, much more. Once the hurdle of regulatory compliance has been cleared we will see a sprint towards mass adoption
