1/ The first EVM-compatible parachain on @kusamanetwork has gone live!

@MoonriverNW offers users a seamless experience through its full Ethereum compatibility and low gas fees.

A guide on how to get started 👇

2/ Add Moonriver to your @MetaMask wallet:
Network: MOVR - Mainnet
RPC: rpc.moonriver.moonbeam.network
Chain ID: 1285
Symbol: MOVR
Block explorer: blockscout.moonriver.moonbeam.network

docs.moonbeam.network/tokens/connect…

3/ Send $MOVR to Metamask for gas fees using CEXs:
a) @krakenfx
b) @kucoincom (minimum 0.1 MOVR withdrawal)

*Ensure that it is the Moonriver network selected upon withdrawal

4/ Bridging additional funds:
Use the Anyswap bridge which allows you to port over funds from Ethereum/ Binance Smart Chain to the Mooriver chain.

5/ Tools🔧

a) Farms: vfat.tools/moonriver/ 🧑‍🌾

b) TG/ Discord: t.me/Moonbeam_Offic… / discord.com/invite/PfpUATX ✉️

c) Chain explorer: blockscout.moonriver.moonbeam.network 🔍

d) Charts: charts.freeriver.exchange / nomics.com/assets/movr-mo… 📈

6/ Dapps
a) @MoonSwapDEX currently having a TVL of ~$9mn and a market cap of ~$1m.

It is a DEX and yield aggregator with some juicy yields (👀)

b) @Solarbeamio currently with a TVL of ~$70mn and a market cap of ~$10mn. Solarbeam reached a $1mn TVL in less than 4 days and has a well designed UI.

7/ Since the Moonriver network just went live, there are not many dapps around to interact with yet.

Expect a host of applications to be deployed in the coming weeks such as the likes of @CreamdotFinance @SushiSwap @BalancerLabs and @impossiblefi

moonbeam.network/community/proj…

I personally have bought the $MOVR token and been enjoying its parabolic rise (h/t @0x5uff3r) while farming on Solarbeam.

Albeit the lack of dapps, the experience on @MoonriverNW so far has been similar with other EVM compatible chains - low gas fees and easy to use bridge.

Notes / Pod / Intern squad 🙏 @cmsintern @Darrenlautf @analyticalali @0xminion @wassiecapital @The_ReadingApe @degenism @0x4C756B65 @jiminstupid @RenCryptoFish @zkchun @AnonNgmi @mevintern @delphiintern @PARADIGMintern @sandraaleow @Kyros_Intern

Just to add on that @Solarbeamio now has a faucet which provides a small amount of $MOVR for gas. This avoids the need to purchase $MOVR from somewhere else.
