Feature availability

Send and receive
The same 0x address as on Ethereum and the other EVM networks, on the C-Chain. You can send to an ENS name as well as an address.
Tokens
ERC-20 tokens on the C-Chain. Assets Discovery finds tokens you hold that are not on your home screen, and you can add any other by its contract address.

Choose Slow, Normal or Fast, or set the max fee and priority fee yourself. A pending transaction can be sped up or cancelled.
Batch Transfer
Send to several addresses in one transaction with Batch Transfer, from the Send screen.
Swap
Trade one token for another on Avalanche with Swap. A swap takes place within one network.
Bridge
Move tokens between Avalanche and 33 other networks with Bridge.
Hardware and cold wallets
Sign on a Keystone or a Goldshell by scanning QR codes, or on an offline phone in cold wallet mode. See Hardware & Cold Wallets.

Important notes

  • C-Chain only. FxWallet supports Avalanche’s C-Chain, where AVAX and its tokens use 0x addresses. The X-Chain and the P-Chain, whose addresses start with X-avax1 and P-avax1, are not supported: when you withdraw AVAX from an exchange, choose the C-Chain.
  • The same address on every EVM network. Your Avalanche address is also your address on Ethereum, BNB Chain and the other EVM networks. A token sent on another network arrives there, not on Avalanche, so check the network before you send or withdraw. See I sent crypto on the wrong network.
  • Approvals last until you revoke them. Approve only what a DApp needs, and revoke what you no longer use. See Token approvals.
Which network do I choose to withdraw AVAX to FxWallet from an exchange?

The C-Chain, which exchanges call AVAX C-Chain or Avalanche C-Chain. In FxWallet the network is called Avalanche: tap Receive and choose AVAX to copy your address, which starts with 0x. Do not choose the X-Chain, which FxWallet does not support. See Deposit or receive crypto.

Can I set my own fee on Avalanche?

Yes. On the confirmation screen, tap Gas Fee and choose Slow, Normal or Fast, or Custom to set the max fee and the priority fee. A pending transaction can be sped up or cancelled. See Gas fees and Gas Card.

Can I move my wallet from MetaMask or another Avalanche wallet?

Yes. Import its mnemonic phrase: FxWallet derives EVM accounts on the same path as MetaMask (m/44'/60'/0'/0/n), so the addresses match. You can also import a single account by its private key, or follow an address as a watch wallet.
