I chat to Emin Gün Sirer, professor at Cornell and founder of Ava labs, about the Avalanche protocol and the new platform he is building with it.

Avalanche is one of 3 consensus protocols, and it was released anonymously last year by a group calling themselves "Team Rocket" ('Team Rocket' is a reference to Satoshi's enemy in Pokemon). This protocol is now being experimented with by multiple groups in the crypto space, including Emin who is developing a new platform from the ground up called "Ava".

For a full explanation of Avalanche and how it works, please see my previous video with Emin: "The 3 Types of Consensus Protocols explained ( https://youtu.be/rNH0XhRoscU )
