What is Moonriver?
Moonriver (MOVR) is an Ethereum-compatible, smart-contract parachain that runs on the Kusama network. It launched in 2021, built by PureStake as a companion to Moonbeam, and acts as a permanently incentivised canary network, a live setting where developers can test and refine projects before they move across to Moonbeam on Polkadot.
Because it is fully Ethereum-compatible, teams can deploy existing Ethereum apps on Moonriver with only minor changes while drawing on Kusama's security and cross-chain links. The network supports Ethereum's Web3 RPC, accounts, keys, subscriptions, and logs, which makes it a practical home for decentralised apps aimed at the wider Polkadot world.
MOVR itself has a working role on the network. Holders can stake it by nominating collators that validate transactions, helping secure the chain and earning rewards, while developers and users tap into dApps and DeFi tools that lean on its cross-chain reach.
