Alibaba Cloud Expands to Support Validators and Infrastructure on Avalanche Public Blockchain

Validated Project

Alibaba Cloud, the largest cloud service provider in Asia Pacific, has expanded their line of infrastructure technology and intelligence tools to the Avalanche public blockchain, enabling users to launch validator nodes through the service and access computing, storage, and distribution resources through Alibaba Cloud’s suite of products in Asia.

Avalanche is an eco-friendly smart contract platform built for the scale of global finance. It features near-instant transaction finality, and a novel scaling technology that enables both institutions and individuals to build custom blockchains-as-a-service.

Avalanche developers looking to launch new Avalanche validators can do so easily with Alibaba Cloud’s plug-and-play infrastructure as a service (IaaS). Application developers can also add additional cloud infrastructure to support their app in times of peak demand to keep pace with user activity.

Established in 2009, Alibaba Cloud, the digital technology and intelligence backbone of Alibaba Group, is Asia Pacific’s leading IaaS provider, according to Gartner. It provides a comprehensive suite of cloud computing services to customers worldwide, including elastic computing, database, storage, network virtualization, large-scale computing, security, management and application services.

Since launching in September 2020, Avalanche is one of the fastest organically growing ecosystems in digital assets. It now has over 1,000 projects building on the platform, including top-tier DeFi projects like Aave, Curve, BENQi, Sushi, and Chainlink, and enterprise applications for leaders like Deloitte and Lemonade.

The network is currently secured by more than 1,200 validators and processes on average two million transactions on a daily basis. Avalanche is breaking new all-time highs in user activity, including 133M aggregate transactions in Q3 2022, a +1,678% increase over Q3 2021.

To celebrate this integration, Alibaba Cloud is offering Avalanche developers credit towards any of their services. Alibaba Cloud’s special promotion page for Avalanche developers is live: https://www.alibabacloud.com/campaign/avalanche-partnership.

  • KillaXBT: BTC May Surge Before Midterm Elections, Drop After, Historical Probability 75% Bearish

    On October 11, Killa (@KillaXBT), a user on X, shared his perspective that the ideal path for BTC is to rise before the midterm elections, establishing a bullish narrative and surpassing previous highs. Following this, he anticipates a pullback post-election, similar to past cycles, but with higher lows instead of new cycle lows. He believes that if there is a decline before the elections, it is more likely to rise towards $95,000 afterward. Citing data, he noted that nearly $2 billion in long positions were just liquidated, with only three weeks until the midterm elections. Historically, in four midterm elections, three have seen bearish trends emerge one to two months after the elections, giving a probability of 75%. He stated that the worst-case scenario would be a price rebound leading into the elections, followed by a reversal that traps the other side before de-risking. He believes that the narrative for one side has already been liquidated, and the current exposure of shorts is higher than that of longs. The author claims to still hold 10x long positions and longs established at 62.6K and 76.4K, with all positions fully allocated and not closed. This represents his personal trading view and is not an objective event.

  • Five Major U.S. TV Networks Boycott White House Coverage; DOJ Launches Antitrust Investigation

    On October 11, the U.S. Department of Justice announced it is investigating whether five television networks, including CNN, violated federal antitrust laws. This follows President Trump's ban on reporters from CNN and two other news organizations from entering the White House for coverage, prompting these five major media outlets to collectively boycott and refuse to report on White House activities in solidarity with the banned reporters. The antitrust division of the DOJ is examining CNN, NBC, CBS, Fox News, and ABC. These news organizations have formed a television broadcasting alliance to jointly cover presidential activities and share video footage. The DOJ stated that the members of this television press corps are boycotting White House coverage; such collective boycott actions among business competitors may violate the Sherman Antitrust Act. The antitrust division is investigating to determine if these news organizations have violated antitrust laws. Last month, Trump barred reporters from CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from entering the White House, citing that their coverage was unfavorable to him. Following this, major television networks suspended joint reporting. When CNN was removed from its scheduled coverage of Trump at the United Nations General Assembly, other networks refused to take its place.
