# Deliq's Guide to Avalanche

## Getting Started <a href="#getting-started" id="getting-started"></a>

Just like on other chains, Avalanche also needs some native AVAX tokens to pay for gas and buy other tokens on the chain.

### Setup Wallet <a href="#setup-wallet" id="setup-wallet"></a>

* You can watch [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ridf2-Gz-ds) to setup your Avalanche wallet.
  * Make a note of your *X-Chain* address.
* Follow [this guide](https://pangolin.exchange/tutorials/getting-started/#set-up-metamask) for metamask setup.
  * Your *C-Chain* address is the same as your Ethereum or BSC wallet address.
* TLDR; X-Chain is for AVAX token transfer from Exchange to Defi, C-Chain is for Defi.
