Unlike centralized staking on exchanges, your deposit in AVBTC is secured by Merkl's open-source smart contracts on Avalanche. You can verify the exact contract addresses, see every transaction in the pool, and withdraw your position at any time without requiring anyone's permission.

How to Stake AVBTC in Merkl

Follow these steps to start earning 0.00% APY in the AVBTC pool. The entire process takes 15–30 minutes for first-time DeFi users.

Step 1: Buy AVBTC

Purchase AVBTC on Bybit, BINGX, or MEXC. Choose the Avalanche network for withdrawal to avoid bridging fees. Confirm the network before completing the transfer.

Step 2: Set Up a Wallet

Install MetaMask or use a Ledger hardware wallet. Add the Avalanche network if it is not detected automatically. Never store your seed phrase digitally.

Step 3: Get Avalanche for Gas

Buy a small amount of Avalanche's native token to pay transaction fees — usually $1–10 worth is sufficient for several transactions.

Step 4: Connect to Merkl

Visit the official Merkl app. Bookmark the URL directly. Never click links from DMs, social media, or email — phishing sites mimic real protocols exactly.

Step 5: Approve and Deposit

Approve the token spend in your wallet, then confirm the deposit transaction. Yield begins accruing in the next block after confirmation.

Step 6: Track and Harvest

Check your position regularly. Some pools require manual reward claims — harvest and reinvest to compound your 0.00% APY over time.

Gas Costs and Break-Even

On Avalanche, expect to spend approximately $2–$30 in gas for the deposit and withdrawal transactions combined. At 0.00% APY, a $Infinity deposit recovers ~$35 in gas within a week (≈ $5/day in yield). Scale your position accordingly — smaller deposits are better suited to low-fee chains.
