Particle Network Brings the Particle Chain to Avalanche

The next era of Web3 will be defined by simplicity: users won’t think about chains, bridges, or gas tokens; they’ll just use applications that work. Particle Network is bringing that vision to life to give users one account and balance across any chain, with the launch of the Particle Chain on Avalanche. 

The Particle Chain isn’t a general-purpose smart contract platform. It’s a high-performance coordination and settlement layer enabling Universal Accounts’ chain-agnostic user experience, demanding low latency, instant finality, built-in interoperability, and proven reliability in high-value environments. The Particle Chain Layer 1 (L1) is slated to go live in Q4, with permissionless validator participation, allowing open access to run nodes on the network. 15+ validators are confirmed for its first cohort, underscoring the network’s readiness to operate at scale from day one.

Particle Network has long focused on making blockchain invisible to the end user, from social onboarding and in-app wallets to account abstraction and chain-agnostic trading. The Particle Chain is the culmination of that work, unifying users, liquidity, and transactions across Web3 and making Universal Accounts possible.

By integrating the Universal Accounts solution within their dApp, developers can enable their users to deposit assets from any chain, pay gas in any token, and seamlessly interact across chains—regardless of which chain their dApp is on

The Particle Chain: Powering the Universal Transaction Layer

At the core of the Particle Chain is the Universal Transaction Layer, an infrastructure that makes every chain, asset, and application feel like part of the same network. This means:

• Universal Liquidity automatically aggregates a user’s balances across supported chains, sourcing and routing funds in real time.

• Universal Gas lets users pay fees in any token, even across chains.

• Chain Abstraction enables users to interact with applications across Web3 as if it were a single ecosystem.

For builders in the Avalanche ecosystem, integrating the Universal Accounts SDK delivers this chain-abstracted experience out of the box. Users can connect with any EVM wallet or social login, use assets from any chain, and interact without worrying about bridges or gas tokens.

By bringing this to Avalanche, Particle is creating the connective tissue that allows the ecosystem to tap into users and liquidity across all of Web3. Within the Avalanche ecosystem, this means Universal Accounts bring the end-goal to life: making the entire Avalanche L1 environment feel like one connected system. In practice, users experience “many chains that feel like one,” with assets, liquidity, and applications unified through the Particle Chain.

What Avalanche Delivers

Avalanche combines sub-second finality with a proven track record of powering both open DeFi ecosystems and institutional-grade tokenization. This foundation ensures it can meet the scale and compliance needs of the next generation of applications.

By building on Avalanche, the Particle Chain gains the performance and interoperability required to serve as the universal user layer, while plugging directly into a thriving ecosystem already issuing and settling high-value assets onchain.

A World Ready for Digital Assets

While Particle solves the usability gap, the market opportunity for Avalanche and Particle to capture is expanding fast. Regulation is paving the way for digital assets, stablecoins are embedding into mainstream payment rails, and RWAs are moving onchain at record scale. Avalanche has already become a hub for tokenization, powering pilots and live products across equities, funds, credit markets, and more.

By combining Avalanche’s high-performance, RWA-ready infrastructure with Particle’s Universal Transaction Layer, assets issued on any chain can become instantly accessible across Web3, with frictionless settlement and interaction for users and builders alike.

The launch of the Particle Chain on Avalanche is more than a technical integration; it’s a step toward a unified onchain economy. One where builders can reach every user, users can reach every asset, and the complexity of blockchain fades into the background.
