GRAND CAYMAN, Cayman Islands, Dec. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4320030-1&amp;h=1101799919&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.movementnetwork.xyz%2F&amp;a=Movement+Network+Foundation" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">Movement Network Foundation</a>, the organization dedicated to fostering innovation and advancing the adoption of MoveVM technology, today announced the successful launch of <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4320030-1&amp;h=1731405740&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fmovementlabs.xyz%2F&amp;a=Movement+Labs" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">Movement Labs</a>' Movement Mainnet Beta and the Token Generation Event (TGE) of <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4320030-1&amp;h=994410827&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.movementnetwork.xyz%2Farticle%2Fmovement-foundation-move-token&amp;a=%24MOVE" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">$MOVE</a>, marking a significant milestone for the first Move-based blockchain that settles to Ethereum.
The launch of Mainnet Beta represents the first phase of Movement's production infrastructure. During this phase, infrastructure providers can deploy essential network components including follower nodes, RPC nodes, and indexers. Network operators will focus on two critical tasks: ensuring the network properly synchronizes and validating security measures. This managed launch environment sets the foundation for Movement's innovative "<a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4320030-1&amp;h=2257479943&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.movementlabs.xyz%2Farticle%2Fpostconfirmations-L2s-rollups-blockchain-movement&amp;a=postconfirmations" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">postconfirmations</a>," which achieve transaction finality in as little as one second — dramatically faster than existing ethereum scaling solutions that can take minutes or even day.
<a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4320030-1&amp;h=1968431919&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fx.com%2Fmovementfdn&amp;a=Movement+Foundation" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">Movement Foundation</a>&nbsp;is launching the $MOVE token, via its <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4320030-1&amp;h=3366281769&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.movementnetwork.xyz%2Farticle%2Fmovement-network-foundation-movedrop-move-token&amp;a=MoveDrop" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">MoveDrop</a>&nbsp;program, distributing up to 1 billion $MOVE tokens (10% of maximum supply) to its community.&nbsp;The MoveDrop rewards meaningful participation and genuine technical contributions. The program is designed to build a community-driven network where token holders can actively participate in securing the network's infrastructure and governance, reflecting Movement's commitment to sustainable ecosystem development.
Unlike next-gen Layer 1 blockchains that operate in isolation—Movement introduces a solution designed to enhance Ethereum's possibilities. Movement directly integrates with Ethereum, leveraging its robust network effects and security while simultaneously expanding the pool of secure and innovative applications. Through Movement, all Move developers inherently become Ethereum developers.
<blockquote>
 "What sets Movement apart is our vision for true utility on Ethereum," said Rushi Manche, Co-founder of Movement Labs. "By bringing the Move language to EVM, we're not just creating another L2, we're building a bridge that transforms every Move developer into an Ethereum developer, dramatically expanding the ecosystem's potential."&nbsp;
</blockquote>
At the core of Movement's appeal is the Move programming language, developed for Meta's Diem project and celebrated for its enhanced safety and expressiveness. Move's resource-oriented programming model aims to ensure secure and bug-resistant smart contract development — eliminating over 90% of auditor-prioritized attack vectors.
<blockquote>
 "Movement's strength lies in our vibrant community of over 800 builders and 840+ contributors who have been with us on this journey," said Cooper Scanlon, Co-founder of Movement Labs. "Mainnet Beta launch and MoveDrop are about empowering developers and users to shape the future of Ethereum scaling. Whether you're building on the Movement Network, testing new protocols, creating content, or participating in governance, there's a place for everyone in our ecosystem."
</blockquote>
To celebrate this milestone, Movement Network Foundation also announced its first-ever NFT initiative – a community-driven competition to create the official commemorative artwork for the Mainnet Beta launch.
"Our community has been essential in building the Movement, so it's only fitting they should create the artwork that commemorates this historic moment," added Scanlon. "This genesis NFT will be a testament to the creative power of our ecosystem." The winning design will be minted as Movement's first NFT, with the top three submissions receiving $1,000 prizes.
