Remember Solana, Avalanche, and Luna from the last bull run? Luna took a tumble during the bear market, but Solana and Avalanche? They’re still holding strong! Today, our spotlight is on Avalanche, where some of the hottest projects of this bull run are setting up shop.
Avalanche (AVAX) isn’t just any blockchain. It’s one of the top EVM-compatible chains out there. And let me tell you, the team behind it has been making some serious moves lately. With so much happening in Avalanche, we’re diving into three of the top projects you won’t want to miss! Let’s get into it!
1) Beam
Blockchain gaming is leveling up big time on Avalanche, and one platform leading the charge is Beam. They have a mission to shake up the gaming world by being chain-agnostic. Starting as an Avalanche subnet, Beam’s now branching out, teaming up with big names like Immutable and Polygon Labs to bring you the future of gaming.

At the heart of Beam is Sphere, a marketplace designed just for gamers. Think of it like your one-stop shop for trading in-game assets hassle-free. Beam isn’t just about gaming; it’s about giving players true ownership over their digital goodies.
So, why should you be hyped about Beam? Well, for starters, it’s becoming a central player in Avalanche’s buzzing ecosystem. Plus, they’re scoring major partnerships left and right, like the recent ones with Polygon and Immutable. This means Beam’s Sphere is about to become THE place to be for trading game assets across different titles.

But that’s not all! Beam’s been busy beefing up its features, too. Take Account Abstraction, for example. It’s like having a universal gamer profile that lets you seamlessly switch between games without missing a beat.
So, if you’re all about gaming and you’ve got your sights set on Avalanche, Beam is where the action’s at.
2) Trader Joe (JOE)
The next on our list is Trader Joe. Trader Joe is the leading decentralized exchange on Avalanche. Dexes are the engine behind the DeFi ecosystems. That’s how important Trader Joe’s is to Avalanche.
Decentralized Exchange volumes are surging again on @avax, led by @TraderJoe_xyz. In the last three days, the Trader Joe protocol facilitated more than $2.35b in trading volume.

So, what’s Trader Joe all about? Well, picture this: it’s based on the AMM (that’s an automated market maker) design, first made famous by Uniswap. This means swapping tokens on Avalanche is pretty smooth – super intuitive, and super easy. Trader Joe isn’t just an average DEX. It’s a whole ecosystem! They’ve got everything from a liquidity farming platform to a token launchpad and even a lending protocol.
Plus, they’re serving up some impressive rewards with their staking service. Stake your JOE tokens, and earn some extra goodies– simple as that! And speaking of JOE tokens, they’re not just for show; they’re your ticket to governance. And they help you get a piece of the trading fees.
Fee sharing is a staple feature of #DeFi
Since the start of the year, Trader Joe has distributed over $2.5m to tokenholders, generated from trading activity on the Decentralized Exchange.
Share the success of DeFi, with Trader Joe.

3) GMX
GMX is our third Avalanche project for today. It’s one of the top decentralized exchanges. Picture this: you can trade cryptocurrencies, whether it’s spot or perpetual contracts, straight from your wallet! How awesome is that? GMX first hit the scene on Arbitrum One back in September 202. It recently expanded to Avalanche.
When it comes to Perp DEXs, @GMX_IO has been one of the true source of inspiration for us.@GMX_IO v1 introduced the concept of "real yield" and presented an effective trading model in the derivatives DEX protocol arena through innovative protocol mechanics and tokenomics,…
