Avalanche's Etna upgrade, effective December 16, 2024, introduces a new layer-1 (L1) model allowing application networks to choose their own validator rules, fees, and access controls. Previously, Subnet validators were tied to Avalanche's Primary Network and required a minimum stake of 2,000 AVAX. Now, each L1 network controls its validator set independently without needing to validate the Primary Network, paying a fee to the shared P-Chain instead. This change enhances flexibility for networks, enabling custom validation methods and governance while maintaining interoperability through Interchain Messaging (ICM). This upgrade could encourage more tailored blockchain applications and institutional use cases like Tassat's Lynq settlement network.
