Moonriver

Moonriver is a smart contract platform designed to allow developers to deploy existing Ethereum dApps to Kusama with minimal changes. As a sister network to Moonbeam, Moonriver serves as the experimental deployment hub for decentralized applications within the Kusama ecosystem. It offers full Ethereum compatibility, enabling seamless porting of Solidity smart contracts while maintaining access to the scalability and security of Kusama. Moonriver plays a crucial role in expanding the multichain ecosystem by promoting interoperability across blockchains, ensuring that dApps can integrate smoothly with multiple networks.

Ethereum-Compatible Smart Contract Platform

Moonriver mirrors Ethereum’s development environment, allowing developers to easily port their existing Ethereum dApps to Moonriver without modifying their codebase. This ensures a smooth transition for projects looking to leverage Kusama’s network capabilities.

Decentralized and Community-Focused

As part of the Kusama ecosystem, Moonriver operates with a focus on decentralization and community governance, ensuring that the community shapes its direction for greater autonomy and decentralization.

Interoperability and Scalability

Moonriver not only provides Ethereum compatibility but also leverages Kusama’s parachain structure to achieve high scalability and efficient cross-chain communication. This opens the door to broader dApp integration across various blockchains.
