Emin Gun Sirer Expressed:  You may have noticed a big jump in the yields across Aave Aave, Curve Finance, & Benqi Finance on Avalanche. So, what has Avalanche Rush has already done for the ecosystem:

Avalanche Rush has been a bigger, faster success than even our wildest hopes, which caused yields to lower faster than expected. We heard the community feedback and decided to expand the program ahead of schedule to support this growth trajectory.

We want everyone to feel the Rush, and see just how fast and easy to use block chains can be. Oh, and the best part? Rush is still just getting started.

Community response:  Avalanche is a great intro to the $180 million Avalanche Rush program, deploying Aave Aave with a $20 million incentive.

Avalanche provides for about 4500 transactions per second, it is fast like hell 1 second for a final transaction, which is even faster than centralized blockchain. And others are too slow for real world application. Avalanche states that the rest of them who claim that they are not slow are tricking.  To test one should send some from one wallet to another and they will be able to notice the obvious difference.

Smart contracts EVM easy migrate all Ethereum projects.  There are projects without smart contracts and one cannot be sure about what they can be used for.

No Slashing.  BTC Maxis like to tell the uninformed about why Proof of Stakes is very bad. One argument you hear a lot is about slashing which is about punishing malicious node.  This is not true with Avalanche.  If the node is malicious you will not be able to receive any staking rewards, but your stake is never at risk.

All Validators Validate every transaction. And others? When it comes to number of validators, many projects count the number of validators of their pool.  In the end, they choose randomly only a small number of validators from the pool for the validation of a transaction.

Everyone can become a validator:  Count by now:  approximately 1000. And others? Many projects compromise here and limit who can validate their chain (through token distribution, KYC, limited spaces, self-controlled nodes, leading to centralization as these limited nodes must be trusted.

There are projects who are very good in marketing slogans claiming to provide for millions of transactions per second.  These are good not really good and they do not have anything to do with decentralization.
