Yes. Avalanche is a pre-programmed network in the free Cryptnox app, so AVAX users do not need to add the network manually. The Cryptnox Crypto Hardware Wallet – Dual-Card Set signs Avalanche activity with private keys generated inside the secure element and kept there. Use the contact and NFC smart card by tapping it to a phone or inserting it into a reader, then connect to Web3 through WalletConnect or MetaMask when needed.

Avalanche is already available as a pre-programmed network in the Cryptnox app. For an AVAX buyer, that means the Avalanche route is ready in the app rather than starting with a manual network entry. Open the app on iOS or Android, select Avalanche, and use the card when the signing step is required.
This matters because Avalanche is part of the EVM support model, but it does not have to be treated like an EVM network that you add yourself. Other EVM networks can be added through Add a Network; once one is added, its native coin and any ERC-20 deployed on that chain can be managed. Avalanche is different for the buyer because the app already includes it.
Before sending AVAX to a newly prepared wallet, check the current Avalanche entry on the Cryptnox coin and blockchain support page. It is the right place to confirm how Avalanche fits alongside other networks you may want to manage with the same card-based signing model.
When you approve an Avalanche transaction, the important secret is the private key that controls the AVAX address. With the Cryptnox Crypto Hardware Wallet – Dual-Card Set, private keys are generated inside the secure element and never leave it. The Cryptnox app and any Web3 connection can prepare the request, but the card performs the signing step without exporting the private key.
The card uses an EAL6+-certified chip. That chip-level security property belongs to the platform inside the card, while the buyer’s practical benefit is the same for AVAX use: the private key is created and retained inside the secure element rather than being handled by the phone app or browser connection.
The card itself has no biometric sensor. Unlocking uses the phone’s biometrics through the Cryptnox app, while AVAX signing remains tied to the secure element on the card. That separation is the core reason to use the Dual-Card Set for Avalanche rather than keeping the private key in the same environment that displays a transaction request.
The Dual-Card Set ships uninitialised. During setup, the seed is generated inside both secure elements, so the second card is the backup for the same Avalanche wallet. For a new AVAX setup, the second card is not a separate account you have to coordinate manually; it is the backup created during the same initialisation process.
This default setup avoids writing down a recovery phrase before you use the wallet. The intended path for a fresh Dual-Card Set is to initialise both cards together, then store the backup card separately from the card used for daily AVAX approvals. Importing an existing BIP39 recovery phrase is available as an advanced option, but it is not the default route for a new wallet.
Use the Cryptnox startup guide before funding a new Avalanche wallet, especially if this is your first time preparing both cards in the set. The guide is the practical starting point before AVAX is sent to an address controlled by the Dual-Card Set.
The Cryptnox card is a contact and NFC smart card. For mobile Avalanche use, tap the card to a phone. For contact mode, insert the card into a reader. It is a dual-interface card, so AVAX users are not locked into only one presentation method.
That form factor fits the Avalanche workflow because the phone can run the Cryptnox app and display the request, while the card remains the place where signing is completed. The card is carried like a smart card, but the private key remains inside the secure element and does not leave it during AVAX approvals.
The cards are made in Switzerland, and the product is Swiss-engineered. For an AVAX buyer comparing hardware formats, the key distinction is simple: Avalanche is selected in the app, but the private key is generated and retained inside the secure element on the card.
The free Cryptnox app runs on iOS and Android. Avalanche is pre-programmed in the app, and Cryptnox connects to Web3 through WalletConnect and works with MetaMask. For an AVAX buyer, that means the wallet can be used for Avalanche activity beyond simple transfers while keeping final signing on the card.
WalletConnect is useful when a Web3 service offers that connection route. MetaMask is useful when your workflow depends on MetaMask connection handling. In both cases, the Avalanche request can be prepared through the connection route, while the private key remains inside the secure element and the card performs signing.
For everyday AVAX use, the important habit is to select Avalanche in the Cryptnox app and review the request before presenting the card. If the request is not the Avalanche activity you intended, do not approve it. The app and connection route help present the transaction, but the card should only be used after the request has been checked.
If AVAX is one part of a broader wallet plan, the best crypto hardware wallet overview helps compare the Dual-Card Set beyond Avalanche alone. When you are ready to prepare a fresh AVAX wallet with the two-card backup model, buy the Cryptnox Crypto Hardware Wallet – Dual-Card Set from the Cryptnox shop.
Avalanche has a direct route in the Cryptnox app because it is pre-programmed. Other EVM networks follow a separate route: add the network with Add a Network, then manage the native coin and any ERC-20 deployed on that chain. ERC-20 tokens can also be added manually with Add a Token.
This distinction is important when AVAX is not your only EVM exposure. You do not need to create Avalanche as a custom network, but you can add other EVM networks later and use the same card-based signing model. Avalanche remains its own network selection in the app, while added EVM networks follow the Add a Network route.
For a portfolio that includes Polygon assets as well as AVAX, compare the EVM workflow described for Polygon hardware wallet users. If your holdings include RON as well as AVAX, review the Ronin hardware wallet guidance before mixing network habits across chains.
Choose Cryptnox for Avalanche if you want AVAX available through a pre-programmed app network, private keys generated inside the secure element, and a second card created as the backup during setup. The product is designed for buyers who want card-based signing rather than a wallet flow where the private key is exported from the secure element.
The Dual-Card Set is a practical fit for a fresh AVAX wallet because the setup creates the backup inside the second secure element. That is useful when you want the backup model in place before funds are sent. Store the backup card separately and use the daily card only when you intend to approve Avalanche activity.
It is also a fit for AVAX users who expect to connect to Web3 through WalletConnect or MetaMask. Those connection routes can present the Avalanche request, while the card remains responsible for signing. The phone’s biometrics can unlock the flow through the Cryptnox app, and the card itself has no biometric sensor.
If your portfolio also includes TRON assets, keep that workflow distinct from Avalanche and review the Tron hardware wallet information. If BTC is part of the same wallet plan, the Bitcoin hardware wallet information helps separate Bitcoin decisions from AVAX network selection.
Yes. Avalanche is pre-programmed in the free Cryptnox app on iOS and Android. AVAX users do not need to add Avalanche manually with Add a Network. Select Avalanche in the app, review the transaction or Web3 request, and present the card when signing is required.
Private keys are generated inside the secure element and never leave it. For AVAX activity, the app or Web3 connection can prepare the request, but the card completes signing inside the secure element. The card uses an EAL6+-certified chip as its secure platform.
The Dual-Card Set ships uninitialised. During setup, the seed is generated inside both secure elements, so the second card is the backup for the same AVAX wallet. Store the backup card separately from the card you use for daily Avalanche approvals.
No. For a fresh Dual-Card Set setup, the default backup model is the second card created during initialisation. Importing an existing BIP39 recovery phrase is available as an advanced option, but it is not the default path for a new Avalanche wallet.
Yes. The Cryptnox app connects to Web3 through WalletConnect and works with MetaMask. For Avalanche activity, select the pre-programmed Avalanche network, review the request, and present the smart card so the secure element can complete signing.
Yes. Avalanche is already pre-programmed, and other EVM networks can be added with Add a Network. Once an EVM network is added, its native coin and any ERC-20 deployed on that chain can be managed. ERC-20 tokens can also be added manually.
No. The card itself has no biometric sensor. Unlocking uses the phone’s biometrics through the Cryptnox app. AVAX private keys remain inside the secure element on the card, and Avalanche signing is completed there without exporting the private key.
No, and on this network that is not a limitation. The Cryptnox wallet uses one address per chain. HD address rotation comes from Bitcoin’s UTXO model and the BIP32/BIP44/BIP49/BIP84 derivation scheme; on account-model networks each account is a single fixed address by design, so the question does not apply in the same way. Cryptnox’s single-address-per-chain behaviour matches how these networks work.
At the cryptography layer the card derives keys along BIP32 and SLIP-10 paths, one path per supported chain, though that is not exposed in the app as multi-address management.
Yes. Cryptnox ships worldwide from the official CRYPTNOX store. Orders to Switzerland, the European Union and the United States are dispatched from stock already held in each of those regions, so the parcel does not cross a customs border into your country and there are no import duties to pay. Orders to other destinations are shipped internationally, and any import duties or local taxes are set by the destination country and are the recipient’s responsibility. Current shipping rates are shown at checkout.
