Avalanche’s native token rose in tandem with a surge in on-chain activity. AVAX has been able to sustain a 25% increase in the last week, as the network hit two new highs. Daily transactions reached nearly 11 million on May 11, 2025. Active addresses jumped to 950,000—the most since June 2023.

Record Transaction High
According to the Avalanche Foundation, the platform saw its single-day transaction count hit 10.8 million. That figure tops every previous high. It shows a burst of action across DeFi apps, gaming projects, and automated scripts. Some of those transactions come from bots, but many reflect real users swapping tokens or minting NFTs.
Activity across the Avalanche network is surging, with milestones achieved on May 11th, 2025:

Active User Growth
Based on reports, nearly 950,000 addresses interacted with the network in one day. That is the strongest turnout in almost two years. Everyday people and developers both play a part. Nearly 30 million smart contracts have been deployed on Avalanche so far. Each new contract adds another tool or game for users.
Price Moves And Market Trends
AVAX broke above $24.55 resistance this week. That move linked up with a broader rally in top tokens, leaving AVAX about 110% higher over the past 14 days. Bitcoin raced past $105,000, and risk assets rallied after a US-China trade deal was signed in Switzerland. Stocks opened sharply higher, and crypto followed suit. Traders say looser trade tensions often lift coins.
Avalanche is thriving going into Summit!

Outlook For Avalanche Summit
The network is heading into its Avalanche Summit in London with strong momentum. Ava Labs founder Emin Gün Sirer posted on X that milestones like these “will look minuscule in time.” He hinted that bigger announcements lie ahead. If new partnerships or protocol upgrades arrive at the summit, both usage and AVAX price could get another boost.
The pullback in selling pressure has been in place since February. Now, buyers are stepping in again. That suggests confidence in Avalanche’s tech and its community. The token once hit an all-time high above $146 in November 2021. Since then, it has seen ups and downs, but the recent surge shows users and investors remain interested.

Analysts at Nansen voiced a bullish view, too. Aurelie Barthere said she expects altcoins, equities, and even the US dollar to climb together. That outlook depends on continued positive news—both from markets and from Avalanche itself.
For now, Avalanche stands among the top layer-1 blockchains in daily use. The numbers speak for themselves: 10.8 million transactions on a single day, nearly 1 million active addresses, and millions of contracts ready to go.
