Avalanche (AVAX) vs Mantle (MNT)

Avalanche is an open-source, scalable, and programmable layer 1 blockchain, particularly dedicated to the creation of decentralized applications and blockchain solutions for businesses. The technological infrastructure allows developers to build their own "subnets," fully customizable sub-networks that benefit from Avalanche's security and have their own rules and validators. The "subnets" are independent of each other but can communicate through the Avalanche Warp Messaging (AWM) protocol.

Mantle is a layer 2 scalability solution for Ethereum, whose technological infrastructure ensures full compatibility with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), facilitating the creation of smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps). Mantle is an atypical Optimistic Rollup as it has a modular architecture: the network only handles transaction execution, while consensus is managed by Ethereum and data is decentralized with EigenDA. It is worth noting that Mantle is the result of an evolution of ByBit's BitDAO ecosystem.
