Avalanche (AVAX) vs Sui (SUI)

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.

Sui is a layer 1 blockchain designed to host smart contracts and operates on a Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism. Following the failure of Facebook's Diem project, some of the engineers came together to form Mysten Labs. The technology of Sui incorporates some technological innovations from the project, including the Move programming language and a modular and parallel architecture that allows for the simultaneous processing of a very large number of transactions.
