Moonbeam is an Ethereum-compatible parachain that enables ETH developers to build over to the Polkadot blockchain quickly.

More DeFi on Kusama Ecosystem

Moreover, the Moonriver protocol won the 7th Kusama parachain slot, and it is vying to win the first one on Polkadot next month.

On the other hand, SushiChef stated: “With our suite of products from swap to lend to borrow to IDO, we are excited to breed an ecosystem to support Moonriver/Kusama projects and users.”

Therefore, SushiSwap will leverage Moonbeam’s Ethereum compatibility features to port with minimal effort quickly. This will ultimately provide access to $DOT, $KSM, and other compatible assets. It added that it expects Moonbeam to be one of the places where assets and liquidity concentrate within the Polkadot ecosystem.

Moreover, SushiSwap will be building integrations using the cross-chain features on Polkadot. This will bring assets from other parachains in the ecosystem to Moonbeam. It would also make them accessible to SushiSwap users.

#DeFi projects are choosing to deploy on Moonriver as an easy way to reach users & assets in the @KusamaNetwork ecosystem 📈
