Buy Avalanche
in Portugal

Avalanche is an open-source platform for building custom and interactive blockchains, decentralized applications and smart assets. According to the platform's claim, in addition to high speed, strong security and significant scalability, Avalanche offers other features that can distinguish this network from other decentralized platforms. Among these features, we can mention the creation and management of custom blockchains, the possibility of specifying a set of specific validators, as well as the storage and trading of digital smart assets.

Like Bitcoin and Ethereum, Avalanche introduces new paradigms to the blockchain world. Unlike other blockchain networks that only have one blockchain and one set of validators, Avalanche is a heterogeneous network of many blockchains and different sets of validators. Just as Ethereum allows people to create decentralized applications defined by a smart contract, Avalanche allows people to run decentralized applications defined by a virtual machine. But unlike Ethereum, in Avalanche, each decentralized application runs on its own independent blockchain, and each blockchain is checked and validated by a subnet; A subnet is a dynamic, customized set of validators. Using this feature, private blockchains can be created.

Avalanche is not only a platform for creating custom decentralized applications, but also supports the creation and trading of smart digital assets on its platform. This means that anyone can create their own token for their blockchain. In this network, an asset can have a complex and customized set of rules that define its properties (for example, a token that cannot be traded until next year). This feature allows users to achieve their desired efficiency and performance and continue working within the framework of the rules.

AVAX is the symbol by which the token used in the Avalanche blockchain network is traded in the cryptocurrency market. This symbol is universally accepted as the sign for Avalanche cryptocurrency. Any information regarding Avalanche trading can be found and done by searching the AVAX symbol on different exchange platforms.

Yes. According to the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) document provided by Banco de
Portugal (Central Bank of Portugal) which was published to provide a definition for
cryptocurrency, virtual currency or cryptocurrency is a digital representation of value that can be
digitally traded and functions as a medium of exchange; and/or a unit of account; and/or a store
of value. According to the mentioned document, virtual currencies are the wave of the future for
payment systems and users can purchase cryptocurrencies and engage in specific activities
that involve virtual currency payments.

According to the taxation of cryptocurrencies official ruling form by the Portuguese Tax Authority
(Autoridade Tributária e Aduaneira), in line with the personal income tax regulation process No.
5717/2015, the Portuguese Tax Authority examined the possible classification of
cryptocurrencies within certain types of income that are subject to tax, like capital gains, capital
income and income from business activities. According to the above-mentioned document, the
tax authority decided that natural persons should not be taxed on their crypto gains from selling
cryptocurrencies. The Tax Authorities confirmed that the income from this type of assets is
presumably not taxable, unless the income arises from the performance of constant, regular and
professional activity.

On the network, AVAX is employed for staking, on-chain governance, and transaction fees. AVAX is also necessary to establish or join a subnet. A validator must stake at least 2,000 AVAX in Avalanche. Delegators can choose to stake with an existing validator by committing a minimum of 25 AVAX if they want to take part in staking. To make AVAX scarcer, all processing fees on Avalanche are burned. In conclusion, AVAX can be used to participate in the governance of the Avalanche ecosystem or it can be used as an investment. You can choose to buy and hold it or sell and trade it for other cryptocurrencies. The choice of what you would do with your Avalanche investment is in your hands.
