Open Bitcoin under Assets on the home screen to view its price, your balance, and your earnings.
Price and Balance
The chart at the top shows Bitcoin's price and its change over the selected period. Choose 1D, 7D, 30D, 90D, or All time to change the period.
Below the chart, the balance card shows:
- Balance — the dollar value of your Bitcoin holdings.
- Idle balance — Bitcoin that is not currently earning yield.
- Earn balance — Bitcoin allocated to earning yield, alongside its earning rate.
- Quantity — the amount of Bitcoin you hold, shown in BTC.
- Total return — your displayed return in dollars and as a percentage.
The Bitcoin price at the top of the screen is separate from the value of your own holdings in the balance card. Rates and values in the screenshot are examples; check the app for current values.

The lowest fees to buy Bitcoin
Buying Bitcoin anywhere else means paying exchange fees, spread markups, or conversion costs that eat into your position before you've earned a single satoshi. Axal offers some of the lowest all-in fees to purchase Bitcoin, so more of your money goes into BTC, not into someone else's pocket.
Traditional exchanges and brokerage apps typically charge 1–3% per transaction. Some platforms hide fees inside a spread, so you never see what you're actually paying. Axal keeps fees transparent and low, and once you hold BTC, your balance immediately becomes eligible to earn yield — something no exchange or ETF can offer.
