What is Movement?
Movement, built by Movement Labs, is a network of modular, Move-based blockchains, featuring the first Move Virtual Machine (MoveVM) Layer 2 (L2) for Ethereum. It bridges Move—a secure programming language from Meta’s Diem project—with Ethereum’s ecosystem, enhancing security and scalability for smart contracts.
Key Features and Goals
MoveVM on Ethereum: Delivers over 30,000 TPS using the Move-EVM (MEVM), supporting both Move and Solidity for Ethereum developers.
Security Focus: Prevents exploits like reentrancy with Move’s resource-oriented design.
Modularity & Interoperability: Offers customizable Move Rollups and integrates with Ethereum and chains like Aptos via tools like Celestia.
Developer Empowerment: Provides open-source tools (e.g., Move Stack) for building secure, high-throughput dApps.
Unified Liquidity: Partners with Polygon’s AggLayer to connect Move L2s with Ethereum’s liquidity.
The $MOVE Token
$MOVE powers the network—used for gas fees, governance voting, validator staking, and ecosystem utility like liquidity and payments.
