## Get AVAX

You can get **$AVAX** from any of the supported exchanges where AVAX is listed. You can check [CoinMarketCap](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/avalanche/markets/) to see the most popular ones.

## **Transfer Your Funds to Your Avalanche Wallet**

Once you have AVAX, send AVAX to your Avalanche Wallet that was created in Step 1. Find your wallet address that starts with "X-avax1" on your Avalanche Wallet.

Now you can add some funds to your Wallet:
