Sending AVAX from Binance/OKex to MetaMask

Follow this Zero DeFi Academy Youtube tutorial

Binance has sometimes a habit of disabling temporarily the withdrawal of some tokens, like AVAX:

  1. In that case, you can send USDT from Binance to OKex on the TRC20 network, it's free and fast
  2. Buy AVAX on OKex with the received USDT

Steps:

  1. Create a new web Avalanche wallet or log into it at Web Avalanche Wallet

  2. From Binance/OKex, withdraw AVAX to the X-chain address from the Web Avalanche Wallet: This process is slow, it can take from several minutes to several hours before the AVAX tokens are received in the Avalanche Web Wallet
