No KYC, no custodial features, nothing centralized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The only network calls made outside avax.to domain are the API calls required to run a web-based wallet. All such wallets require an RPC endpoint, which is a web3 standard created by Ethereum and not at all specific to AVXTO Wallet<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But don&#8217;t trust us, verify for yourself! Press F12 on Windows or Linux and open Developer Tools. There is no keyboard shortcut (that we know of) on MacOS but you can find this option under the browser menu&#8217;s &#8220;More Tools&#8221; section. Then click on the Network tab and check out what the AVXTO Wallet is doing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"695\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/avax.to\/avxto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20\" srcset=\"https:\/\/avax.to\/avxto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image.png 695w, https:\/\/avax.to\/avxto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-300x121.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All modules are loaded from the same origin as AVXTO Wallet itself. After every module is loaded, it then polls RPC endpoints for your token balances, transactions and so on. These RPC calls send your address to the endpoint. This is standard procedure across all Ethereum based systems, which includes the Avalanche C-Chain EVM. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These are the only network calls ever made. If your address isn&#8217;t doxxed somewhere outside AVXTO Wallet, then you are 100% anonymous.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Privacy was one of the main motivations for developing AVXTO Wallet.
