The Avalanche (AVAX) token saw a notable surge in price following the platform’s achievement of two significant milestones: daily transaction volume and active addresses. These records were achieved on May 11, 2025, with over 10.8 million transactions and a high of 950,000 active addresses since June 2023. Experts attribute this surge to the network’s increasing adoption in decentralized finance (DeFi), gaming, and other ecosystems. This momentum is further fueled by the deployment of nearly 30 million contracts on the platform. The Avalanche Foundation highlights that these milestones will likely appear insignificant in the long term as the blockchain continues to grow.
