Gelato introduced a new Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS) platform built on Avalanche, providing devs the ability to create sovereign blockchains using Avalanche InterChain Messaging (ICM).
The new service was launched alongside the major Avalanche9000 update and enables developers to quickly and cost-effectively deploy customizable L1 blockchain networks with a high degree of flexibility. The platform also introduces dynamic fees and eliminates the need to stake AVAX for deployment or platform usage.
Gelato is a Web3 development platform that allows developers to deploy, launch, and scale on-chain apps. The Gelato ecosystem integrates over 50 services, including LayerZero, The Graph, Blockscout, Transact, and ElizaOS for creating autonomous AI agents.
This new solution is tailored for FinTech companies and iGaming projects that need full control over governance, economic models, and smart contract execution, while maintaining compatibility with the Avalanche ecosystem. The BaaS platform includes:
- global RPC infrastructure with 99.99% SLA;
- support for Verified Nodes for enterprise monitoring;
- Account Abstraction for user-friendly authentication;
- oracle services Edge and Stork;
- VRF for random number generation;
- Web3 Functions for smart contract automation.
According to Luis Schliesske, Founder at Gelato, BaaS for Avalanche offers a complete stack of tools for developers, enabling businesses to launch their own networks using existing infrastructure. He also emphasized that sovereignty, compatibility, and user convenience are key for the next-generation corporate blockchain networks, and BaaS will allow developers to focus on creating innovative products rather than achieving ecosystem compatibility.
Last year, the BVM Studio team introduced a tool that simplifies, speeds up, and standardizes the deployment of L2 and L3 networks in the Bitcoin and Ethereum ecosystems.
