Moonbeam (GLMR) launch brings EVM interoperability closer to the Polkadot net...
GLMR could be a top contender in 2022 if Moonbeam’s planned interoperability with the Ethereum Network is a hit with investors and developers. Cross-chain compatibility with the Ethereum (ETH) network has become a necessary component for any layer-one protocol looking to remain relevant because a majority of projects and funds locked in smart contracts are found on the top-ranked smart contract platform. After years of development and promises of interoperability, the Polkadot network moved toward its first Ethereum virtual machine (EVM) compatible smart contract protocol with the launch....

As Polkadot inches closer towards its first parachain auction, Moonbeam, one of the fastest-growing parachains on the Polkadot network, is already on a winning spree. Launched in 2020, Moonbeam first deployed its canary network Moonriver on Kusama, Polkadot’s canary network, in June 2021, with Moonbeam set to deploy on Polkadot later this year. Since its […]
Moonbeam is a blockchain project built back in January 2020 as a way to tackle cross-chain interoperability challenges, it is an Ethereum compatible smart contract parachain on Polkadot. For those who are not familiar with Polkadot, it is a multi-blockchain platform where projects can have their own blockchain designed to meet their specific needs rather […]
As a blockchain project capable of bridging the gap between Etheruem and Polkadot, Moonbeam quickly gathers attention from enthusiasts. Tackling cross-chain interoperability poses many challenges that need to be resolved. With over 80K KSM contributed in only a week, the project’s Crowdloan initiative is well worth keeping an eye on.

ASTR, ACA and SAITO went on a month-long rally shortly after the Polkadot ecosystem intensified its move toward DeFi and EVM compatibility. The Polkadot ecosystem sorely underperformed compared to other layer-1 networks in 2021, while the slow roll-out of parachain auctions and mainnet launches left the network playing catch-up in 2021.It appears that this trend came to an end in mid-March when numerous projects in the Polkadot ecosystem saw their prices climb higher after users began to engage with networks that expanded their offerings and made a push toward Ethereum Virtual Machine....
MoonBeam wants Ethereum developers to feel comfortable on Polkadot. The MoonBeam project is planning on setting up a custom parachain that emulates the Ethereum Virtual Machine environment, effectively recreating Ethereum (ETH) on Polkadot (DOT).Developers on Polkadot and some other interoperability projects usually need to set up an entire blockchain to host their decentralized apps. While Polkadot’s Substrate framework is intended to make this process simpler, not all DApps need that level of control over their environment.MoonBeam seeks to become a kind of Ethereum emulator for....
