This pair sells it for AVAX paid on Avalanche's X-Chain, the chain Avalanche uses for plain AVAX transfers. It suits BRETT holders who want to move into Avalanche's native coin, with no account. The BRETT deposit is confirmed on Base in about a minute and the X-Chain payout is final within seconds, so most swaps take 5 to 15 minutes. Your Base wallet only gives you a 0x address. The AVAX must go to an X-Chain address in the X-avax1 format instead, which Core provides. ### Tips - Copy the payout address from the X-Chain view of your Core account and paste it with the X- prefix (X-avax1...). Without the prefix, it is rejected. - Send the BRETT on Base (contract 0x532f27101965dd16442e59d40670faf5ebb142e4) from your own wallet, and enter that 0x address as the refund address. - For AVAX at a 0x address that MetaMask can use, pick AVAX C-Chain as the receive coin instead. BRETT to AVAX C-Chain is also open. ### Can I swap BRETT to AVAX without KYC? Yes. Standard swaps need no account, email or ID. Paste your X-Chain address, check the floating rate and send the BRETT from Base. ### Why do I need ETH to send BRETT? Gas on Base is paid in ETH, not in the token you send. Put a little ETH on Base into the wallet that holds the BRETT before you start the swap. ## FAQ ### How long does it take to swap BRETT to AVAX on GhostSwap? Most BRETT to AVAX swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the BRETT deposit needs about a minute to confirm on Base, then the AVAX is sent to your wallet, and Avalanche X-Chain confirms the payout in a few seconds. Busy networks can add a few minutes. ### What are the fees for converting Brett to Avalanche? The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the AVAX amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, your wallet needs a little ETH on Base to pay the Base network fee for sending BRETT. ### What wallet should I use to receive AVAX? To receive Avalanche from your swap, we recommend using Core (copy its X-Chain address). For AVAX in MetaMask or another 0x wallet, pick AVAX C-Chain instead. Make sure your wallet supports the Avalanche X-Chain network before starting the exchange. Double-check your AVAX address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### What format is the AVAX address? Use an Avalanche X-Chain address: it starts with X-avax1 (an X-Chain address; 0x C-Chain addresses are not accepted). Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. ### Can I track my BRETT to AVAX swap? Yes. After initiating your swap, GhostSwap provides a transaction status page where you can monitor progress in real-time. You can also track your BRETT payment on BaseScan (https://basescan.org) and your incoming AVAX on Avascan (https://avascan.info). ### Is it safe to exchange BRETT for AVAX on GhostSwap? GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your BRETT deposit is converted and the AVAX is sent straight to the Avalanche X-Chain address you enter, so check that address twice, Avalanche X-Chain transfers cannot be reversed. ### How does a cross-chain BRETT to AVAX swap work? Brett lives on Base and Avalanche on Avalanche X-Chain, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your BRETT on Base and pays native AVAX on Avalanche X-Chain, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees. ### What happens if my BRETT to AVAX exchange fails? If a swap cannot be completed, the BRETT is refunded to the Base address you entered as the sender address. If something looks stuck, contact support with your swap ID from the status page. Most problems come from sending a different amount than shown or using an address on the wrong network. ## Related - [Reverse: AVAX to BRETT](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/avax-brett/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/avax-brett.md)) - [All GhostSwap pairs](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/) - [How to exchange](https://ghostswap.io/how-to-exchange/) - [Site guide for AI assistants](https://ghostswap.io/llms.txt)
