OKX Wallet Joins Forces with Team1 to Reward Avalanche’s Most Active Builders
Building on Avalanche just got more affordable thanks to this new fee-discount partnership between Team1 and OKX Wallet.
What if trading on Avalanche came with real, tangible perks just for being part of the community?
That is exactly what this partnership delivers. OKX Wallet and Team1 have announced a strategic collaboration that gives Team1 members exclusive access to reduced trading fees on the OKX DEX, directly rewarding the people building and contributing to the Avalanche ecosystem every day.
What is OKX Wallet?
OKX Wallet is a non-custodial, multi-chain crypto wallet that works across more than 100 blockchains. Non-custodial means you hold your own private keys; no platform controls your assets.
Beyond basic wallet functions, OKX has grown into a full onchain operating system. A few things that make it stand out:
Agentic Wallet: You can interact with DApps, swap tokens, and execute complex transactions using plain language commands rather than navigating menus manually.
DEX Aggregator: Instead of using a single exchange, the aggregator scans multiple DEXs at once and routes your trade through the path that gives you the best rate and lowest slippage.
All-in-one Interface: NFT marketplace, DApp browser, and yield platforms all live in one place, so you are not constantly switching between apps.
You can set up OKX Wallet in under five minutes at okx.com/web3/wallet.
What is Team1?
Team1 is a global community hub built around the Avalanche network. It brings together builders, developers, creatives, gamers, and everyday contributors, with a focus on growing the ecosystem through real participation rather than passive membership.
Since launching in April 2024 with an initial cohort of 190 members, Team1 has grown to over 700 members across 55 countries and six continents. The program runs an average of 30 community events every month and has collaborated with more than 80 universities worldwide.
Team1 operates across three core areas:
Ecosystem Growth: Bringing in new talent and projects through technical support, hackathons, and regional community programs.
Collaborative Innovation: Creating space for contributors to share resources, co-build projects, and push ideas forward together.
Technical Advocacy: Spreading the Avalanche story globally through education, events, and on-the-ground community work.
What Does This Partnership Actually Mean for You?
The headline benefit is an exclusive trading fee discount on the OKX DEX for Team1 members. DEX aggregators typically charge interface fees on top of network fees. This partnership reduces those interface fees for Team1 members on eligible Avalanche swaps, meaning more value stays in your wallet on every trade.
Beyond the discount, the collaboration is designed to drive deeper liquidity into the Avalanche ecosystem. When trading costs less, more people trade more often, which strengthens liquidity pools and makes the network more attractive for builders and users alike.
How to Access Your Benefits as a Team1 Member
If you are already a Team1 member, here is how to get set up:
Step 1: Download OKX Wallet. Head to okx.com/web3/wallet and download the browser extension or mobile app. Create a new wallet or import an existing one, then connect to the Avalanche network.
Step 2: Head to the OKX DEX and connect your OKX Wallet. Before making any trades, enter the Team1 referral code AVAXTEAM1 in the referral field to link it to your wallet. Once successfully applied, your discount will automatically be activated on eligible swaps within the Avalanche network.
Step 3: Trade and Build Use the DEX aggregator to swap at optimized rates, explore DeFi opportunities on Avalanche, and take advantage of everything the OKX ecosystem offers, all with lower fees.
For any questions or support, the Team1 Discord is where the community and moderators are active. You can join the Discord here.
Why This Matters for the Avalanche Ecosystem
Partnerships like this one are most valuable when they translate into something real for the people doing the work. This one does. Builders and contributors on Avalanche now have access to professional-grade trading infrastructure at a lower cost, which removes friction whether you are managing treasury assets for a project, trading between positions, or simply participating in DeFi.
The broader impact is on liquidity. More trading activity means deeper pools, tighter spreads, and a more competitive environment on Avalanche. That benefits everyone in the ecosystem, not just Team1 members.
