Avalanche's Helicon upgrade boosts block verification speed up to 100x and improves staking rules.

Avalanche launched the Helicon upgrade on its mainnet, significantly speeding up block verification by up to 100 times through a new execution model that separates consensus from transaction processing. The upgrade also introduces dynamic gas pricing and lowers the minimum staking duration from 14 days to 2 days, while requiring validators to maintain 90% uptime for rewards. These changes aim to increase network throughput, reduce congestion, and make staking more accessible, though infrastructure providers must update to avoid disruptions. Early data shows doubled block capacity and lower gas fees, signaling improved network efficiency.

As of Oct 01, 2026 00:42 WIB, AVAX on Pluang trades at Rp196.606 with a 1-day decline of 1.50%. The market cap stands at Rp87,3 trillion, while 24-hour trading volume is Rp13,6 trillion. Despite the Helicon upgrade's promise of faster block verification and lower gas fees, Pluang's order activity shows a majority of 58% selling, with typical holders keeping AVAX for about 87 days.
