More on Moonriver (MOVR) and Moonbeam
Moonbeamās Moonriver was one of the first projects to win one of the first parachain auction slots. This win is expected to make application development and user growth on Moonbeam to the next level.
Moonbeam is an ETH-compatible smart contract parachain on Polkadot (DOT). Also, the Moonbeam parachain will be at the core of the Polkadot relay chain while Moonriver will be within Kusama.
Moreover, Moonbeam is also building a one-size-fits-all smart contract parachain. However, when compared to other general-purpose parachains, Moonbeam is only focused on facilitating EVM compatibility.
