About Bitcoin (BTC)

Bitcoin is the world's first decentralised digital network for peer-to-peer value transfer, designed to operate without central control. Recognised globally as a resilient store of value, the Bitcoin network secures transactions through a vast distributed mining ecosystem and remains the most battle-tested blockchain in existence. While its base layer prioritises durability and security over speed, moove.xyz expands Bitcoin's utility by enabling seamless cross-chain movement, effortless conversions, and integration with modern multi-chain financial experiences.

About Avalanche (AVAX)

Avalanche is a high-performance Layer-1 blockchain renowned for its sub-second finality, high throughput, and innovative multi-chain subnet architecture. Widely adopted in DeFi, gaming, and institutional finance, Avalanche enables developers to deploy custom blockchains (subnets) with independent validators, making it one of the most flexible and scalable platforms for building Web3 applications.

How can I bridge from Bitcoin to Avalanche?

You can bridge from Bitcoin to Avalanche directly through Moove Swap, which allows you to swap and bridge 16,000+ cryptocurrencies across 30+ blockchains. Simply connect your wallet and choose the source and destination cryptocurrency to complete the bridge from Bitcoin to Avalanche.

How long does bridging from Bitcoin to Avalanche take?

Most Bitcoin to Avalanche bridges complete within a few minutes.

Chains with fast finality clear in well under a minute, while optimistic rollups and Bitcoin-style chains take longer by design. Progress is shown step by step in the widget so you can see which leg is still pending.

Do I need gas on Avalanche before I can bridge from Bitcoin?

You need the native gas token on Bitcoin to send the bridge transaction. On the Avalanche side you do not need to pre-fund gas to receive your assets — they arrive without you signing anything. You will need a small amount of Avalanche gas later, once you want to swap or move those assets onward, and the simplest way to get it is to bridge a little of the native Avalanche token in the same session so you land with both the asset and the gas to use it.

What are the fees for bridging from Bitcoin to Avalanche?

To bridge from Bitcoin to Avalanche, you only pay the gas fees required by the blockchain that you are bridging from, plus the protocol fee of moove.xyz.
