Avalanche is unique in that you can have NFTs on the X-Chain and the C-chain. Wallets such as Core and Metamask utilize the C-chain for NFTs.

Where to Buy and Sell NFTs

To get started, here are some NFT marketplaces on the network that can be accessed.

What is the difference between AVAX and WAVAX?

When purchasing NFTs on NFT marketplaces users will notice when connecting a wallet, that the marketplaces will show AVAX and WAVAX balances.

AVAX can be used to mint and purchase NFTs on the exchange.

WAVAX is the wrapped version of AVAX. WAVAX can be used to place offers or bids on NFTs, which then can be accepted by the seller. This is useful when offering a bid or offer that is lower than the listing price.

To swap WAVAX back into AVAX, users can use a DEX such as Trader Joe or Pangolin.

How do I add WAVAX to my wallet so I can see my balance?

The contract address for WAVAX can be found here.

Note:

  • Campfire, Joepegs, Kalao, NFTrade, and OpenSea have no affiliation with Avalanche or Ava Labs. As always, please do your own research (DYOR).

  • Currently, NFTs cannot be moved cross-chain between the X and C-Chain.
