Transaction fees on the Avalanche network are paid in AVAX. A small airdrop will be provided to users who bridge over $75 worth of assets to the Avalanche network for their initial transactions. Users will want to acquire more AVAX for future transactions and can do so directly in Core by swapping for AVAX or purchasing AVAX directly.

To learn more about how the bridge fees are calculated, please visit the following page.
