Avalanche is a high-performance, scalable, customizable, and secure blockchain platform. AVAX has a capped-supply of 720,000,000 (720M) tokens. The genesis block will have 360M AVAX tokens. The principle of the emissions function chosen for Avalanche is simple: reach a capped supply, in a fashion similar to Bitcoin’s emissions curve, and yet maintain the ability to 80 govern the rate at which the system reaches this limit.
