Zerion Wallet, a smart and social wallet for web3, now fully supports Avalanche!
Available on iOS and Android, Zerion Wallet offers the full multichain experience on mobile: manage your entire portfolio, trade across 10+ networks, and connect to any dapp with one wallet.
In this post, we’ll show what Zerion Wallet for Avalanche can do for you, how to create it, and how to use Zerion with AVAX.
What is Avalanche?
You probably already know what Avalanche is, but just in case:
- Avalanche is a Layer-1, Proof of Stake network compatible with Ethereum
- An infinite number of transactions per second with subnets
- Transaction finality in under 2 seconds
- Thousands of validators
That’s why Avalanche is the network of choice for builders from DeFi, NFT projects, and even enterprises, institutions, and governments.
To explore everything that Avalanche has to offer, you’ll need a non-custodial wallet like Zerion.

- Vote for governance proposals
Zerion Wallet also supports any tokens on Avalanche right out of the box and tracks DeFi positions, debts, and rewards.
