Avalanche is a smart contract platform that allows users to create their own multi-purpose blockchains or decentralized applications (dApps). Their mainnet was launched in September 2020 and has since become a major hub of activity for DeFi and NFTs. In 2021, they announced their Avalanche Rush incentives program to introduce more applications and to promote further growth of their ecosystem. The Avalanche chain is centered around 3 main blockchains - the P-Chain, X-Chain and C-Chain. The C-Chain is Avalanche’s EVM implementation, which hosts various applications and smart contracts. Users can access Avalanche through centralized exchanges, the official Avalanche bridge or via Celer’s cBridge.

BNB Chain is an alternative blockchain that is similar to Ethereum, capable of hosting smart contracts and decentralized applications. It was launched by Binance in September 2020 as the Binance Smart Chain, and relaunched in Feburary 2022 as BNB Chain. BNB uses the Proof-of-Staked-Authority model which has allowed for low transaction fees and higher throughput. 

Compared to Ethereum which would usually cost hundreds to make a few transactions, BNB only charges less than a few dollars. BNB supports the BEP-20 token format, which is essentially the same format as ERC-20 but on a different chain, and transaction fees are paid in Binance’s native exchange token, BNB.

Polkadot is a blockchain protocol designed to support multiple purpose-built blockchains under one unified network. Polkadot’s infrastructure begins with the relay chain, which acts as the central chain. Each chain that runs on Polkadot is called a parachain as they run parallel to the main relay chain, and is built on top of the relay chain. Besides parachains, projects can participate in the Polkadot ecosystem for a shorter fixed period of time through parathreads. Blockchains built on top of Polkadot’s own relay chain are also interoperable with blockchains that have vastly different technology stacks such as Ethereum and Bitcoin through bridges.

The metaverse refers to a digital world where participants can interact with each other in a shared virtual reality.

Non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, are collectible elements within the Ethereum blockchain that usually follow the ERC-721 or ERC-1155 standard. They represent something unique and therefore are not mutually interchangeable. In other words, no non-fungible token is the same. NFTs take advantage of innovative smart contract technology to store and record unique information on the blockchain, which means that whenever an NFT is created, only one of it verifiably exists. NFT creators can also encrypt details such as rich metadata or secure file links allowing people to create all sorts of digital assets which are verifiable such as videos and songs. With NFTs, one can digitally certify that an asset is authentic.

Solana is a general purpose blockchain similar to Ethereum. The underlying architecture is different, such that developers have to write applications using Rust instead of Solidity or Vyper. However, this may soon change with the introduction of the Neon EVM solution on Solana. End user applications as of now include decentralized finance (DeFi), non-fungible tokens (NFT), marketplaces, games, and more. One of its biggest features is its scalability in which Solana is able to process over 700,000 transactions per second. Its high throughput capability appeals to high frequency traders, which is spearheaded by FTX and Alameda Research. The first use case for DeFi applications on Solana is Serum, built by the team behind FTX.

Automated market makers (AMMs) are a mechanism used by most decentralized exchanges to facilitate permissionless trading. AMMs make use of liquidity pools containing 2 or more assets, and prices are derived based on the proportion of each asset in that pool as well as the mathematical function used. Orders through an AMM are executed automatically via a smart contract that will calculate the trade prices algorithmically, including any slippage from the trade execution.

Data availability is crucial in blockchain networks to confirm the publication of data. When a node receives a new block for addition to the chain, it verifies data availability by attempting to download all the transaction data within that block. Successful download indicates that the data was indeed published to the network, establishing the integrity of the block. 

Data availability centric protocols aim to allow nodes to verify data availability more efficiently.

Data Availability

Derivatives are contracts whose values are derived from other underlying assets such as stocks, commodities, currencies, indexes, bonds, or interest rates. Each type of derivative, whether futures, options or swaps serves a different purpose, and each investor buys or sells them for various reasons. Some of the reasons investors trade derivatives are to hedge themself against the volatility of the underlying asset, speculate on the directional movement of the underlying asset, or leverage their holdings. Derivatives are extremely risky, and one must be equipped with strong financial knowledge and strategies when trading them.


Derivatives

Decentralized exchanges, or DEXs, allow users to trade with one another in a permissionless manner and without any intermediaries. As long as someone provides liquidity, anyone can purchase and sell that token on the exchange. Besides its use case in dictating governance decisions, DEX tokens usually seek to capture value for the holders by diverting some of the transaction fees to stakers.

In Ethereum 2.0, the consensus algorithm is transitioned from Proof-of-Work to Proof-of-Stake, allowing users to stake their Ether and validate transactions in exchange for staking rewards. When you participate in ETH 2.0 staking solutions, you will usually receive a token which represents your staked assets but are also liquid and can be used in other protocols. Here, you can find different tokens which represent staked Ether from various protocols.

These tokens are normally associated with both centralized and decentralized exchanges and have different purposes. For centralized exchanges, these tokens usually serve to lower trading fees for users. Traders get to enjoy discounted rates when they hold a certain amount of these tokens and even unlock special benefits such as free withdrawals and airdrops. On the other hand, these tokens also function as a governance token for decentralized exchanges. Users can vote on proposals to shape the direction of the protocol based on the number of tokens held. They can also be staked to accrue trading fees.

In return for lending their assets, users are given rewards, usually in the form of the protocol’s native token. These products can be split between centralized and decentralized services. Centralized protocols require customers to undergo a Know-Your-Customer (KYC) process, while decentralized ones merely require users to have a compatible web3 wallet.
