Preliminary figure: the final amount is locked in the order.

Current maths: 0.0103334 AVAX for every POL, and 96.7732 POL per AVAX in reverse. Over 24 hours POL/AVAX came in at minus 5.46%. Over the week, plus 5.98%.

The weekly range ran from 0.00973401 to 0.0112873 AVAX, a spread of 15.96%. One order takes from 854.7292 to 85,800,000 POL. In dollars that is roughly $99.59.

Market capitalisation puts Polygon at No. 71 ($1.24 B) and Avalanche at No. 26 ($4.99 B). Over 90 days the daily moves of POL and AVAX correlate at 0.61 (they travel alike).

How the POL → AVAX exchange runs

  1. Work out the amount in the calculator — orders start at 854.7292 POL.
  2. Give a AVAX address on Avalanche C-Chain and a contact for the order.
  3. Send POL on Polygon PoS, exactly the amount the order shows.
  4. Nothing else is needed from you: as soon as the network confirms the transfer, the robot sends Avalanche to your address. The order page shows the status.

Swap POL for AVAX

Check this before sending POL

  • The address network is Avalanche C-Chain. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 854.7292 POL.
  • Copy the address in full, then check its first and last characters once it is pasted.
  • Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, BNB Smart Chain and Polygon addresses look the same (0x…) — make sure the wallet is switched to Avalanche C-Chain.
  • Send exactly the amount stated in the order: the automation matches your payment against it, and any difference sends the order back for recalculation.

How an exchange differs from an ordinary bridge

VelorexOrdinary bridge
What arrives at the addressthe Avalanche C-Chain network's own coin, AVAXUsually a wrapper such as WBTC, which then has to be exchanged for something
Wallet connection and signaturesWe do without them: the payout goes to the address from the orderMandatory: the wallet is connected, contract transactions are signed
Is a Avalanche C-Chain coin needed for feesNot required to receiveAs a rule yes, otherwise the funds cannot be claimed or moved on
When it arrivesAs soon as Polygon PoS gathers confirmations; the status is shown on the order pageSet by the bridge itself and by the load on both networks

Why people take the POL → AVAX route

  • Fuel for Avalanche C-ChainWithout Avalanche you cannot pay for a transfer or a contract call in Avalanche C-Chain — the coin is needed for anything that happens in that ecosystem.
  • Different basketsDaily moves of POL and AVAX over 90 days link at 0.61 (they travel alike) — the weaker the link, the less a portfolio rests on one coin.
  • It works both waysThe AVAX → POL direction is open as well — going back into POL takes the same route and the same automation.

Common questions: POL → AVAX

What rate does POL to AVAX run at?
As of Sep 30, 2026 08:25 it is 1 POL = 0.0103334 AVAX. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $0.116355.
What amounts does POL → AVAX accept?
From 854.7292 to 85,800,000 POL per order. The floor is roughly $99.59.
Why can I not swap less than 854.7292 POL?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 854.7292 POL they eat a noticeable share of it, and the swap stops making sense for either side.
Is anything charged on top of the rate?
No. The payout is already worked out at the rate in the calculator. Separately you pay only the network fee for sending POL, and the blockchain takes that one.
How long does swapping POL for AVAX take?
The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Polygon PoS confirms your transfer, the order goes out for payout with no operator involved. After that the timing is set by how busy the network is — which is the difference between quick and instant. A block in Polygon PoS closes in about 2 sec.
Will real AVAX be credited, or a wrapper?
Real. AVAX is the Avalanche C-Chain network's own coin, and transfers inside it are paid for with the same coin.
Is AVAX needed to receive AVAX?
No: fees in Avalanche C-Chain are charged in the same AVAX, so there is no second coin to hold.
Which network will AVAX arrive in?
Avalanche arrives in its own Avalanche C-Chain network — a plain AVAX address is all you need.
What happens if the rate moves while I am paying?
Nothing: the rate is locked in the order and holds for as long as the order is alive. It is recalculated only if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.
What did the POL to AVAX rate do over the month?
Over the month, minus 29.09%: a low of 0.00962706, a high of 0.0146022, an average of 0.0120249 AVAX per 1 POL.
Can I swap back, AVAX for POL?
Yes, the reverse is open too: 1 AVAX = 96.7712 POL. The link to switch sits under the calculator.
