1/ 💫 Creating cross-chain transfers in #Dotsama just got easier!
➡️ Enter XCM SDK by Moonbeam to simplify XCM transfers & provide a smoother experience for builders on Moonbeam, @MoonriverNW, as well as other parachains
2/ This new software development kit enables builders to easily create transactions that deposit & withdraw assets to Moonbeam or Moonriver from the Relay Chain & other parachains✨
3/ By installing the kit, devs are able to work with a simple set of functions that abstract the complexity of sending tokens through XCM
DApps that implement the SDK don’t have to worry about multi-locations, fee information, and a host of other XCM-related configurations ✔︎
4/ The SDK is open source & not exclusive for use on Moonriver & Moonbeam, allowing it to be adapted for use on other parachains 🙌
It also contains a set of config files that allow other parachain teams to submit info to allow their project & token to be supported by the SDK
5/ In addition to making cross-chain interoperability more accessible, this tool will encourage & support the building of DApps using cross-chain functions & the growth of the ecosystem as a whole ⛓🔁⛓
6/ Currently, The Moonbeam XCM SDK mainly supports XCM token transfers but can be expanded in the future to support remote calls & remote EVM calls between parachains ☑️ moonbeam.network/announcements/…

1/ We get it- there’s a lot to digest with the latest grant program changes 📚
💆♂️ Here’s a TLDR on the Grants Committee implemented as part of the recent Interim Grants Program & the role they play in accepting/rejecting grants ⬇️
2/ 👥 For starters, The Community Grants Committee is a group of five individuals charged with reviewing incoming grant applications and evaluating their merit, contributions to the ecosystem, and value to the network as a whole.
3/ The Committee consists of:
2️⃣ Moonbeam Foundation representatives &
3️⃣ Community members outside of the Moonbeam Foundation
Committee members are charged with understanding the priorities & acting in the best interest of the ecosystem.
3/ Gelato Ops is the front-end for interacting with the platform & managing transaction automation, while the Relay SDK is a collection of functions for interacting with Gelato Relay API
1/ 🛠 #ConnectedContracts Hackathon workshops are now available on the Moonbeam YouTube channel✨
Learn more about building #DApps with XCM + GMP technology, getting started with @axelarcore, or replay the hackathon kickoff & hear from the sponsors ⏯ youtube.com/playlist?list=…
1/ We are aware that many Moonbeam community members remain deeply impacted by the Nomad bridge hack two weeks ago. It’s hard not to be affected by an incident of this size, and the reverberations have been felt across the entire ecosystem.
2/ We know people are hurting & we feel for everyone directly or indirectly affected. This incident has been a tremendous hit to our community & has impacted some individuals more than others. Especially for those of you more directly impacted, know that we are grieving with you.
3/ We, like the rest of the community, are closely following Nomad’s public communications for visibility into recovery efforts, and we hope for a speedy and fair resolution to this horrible incident.
1/ Two weeks ago Moonbeam introduced the first proof-of-concept for EVM access through XCM via Runtime 1701- a big step forward in unifying functionality cross-chain #connectedcontracts
What does this mean?
A thread 🧵
2/ Although still in its testing phase, XCM-to-EVM call functionality will allow devs on other parachains to trigger function calls on Moonbeam’s EVM moonbeam.network/announcements/…
3/ This means that parachains on @Polkadot will be able to tap into the Moonbeam EVM to carry out functions remotely & opens the door for new connected contract use cases that exist between many chains ⛓🔁⛓
