Moonriver, the sister network of the Moonbeam network, is a decentralized smart contract platform built as a parachain on Kusama. MOVR is the name and ticker symbol of Moonriver's native token.
The Moonriver network was launched on Kusama in June 2021. Much like the way Kusama acts as a canary network to Polkadot, Moonriver acts as a fully incentivized platform for testing new projects before they are deployed on Moonbeam.
The platform mirrors Ethereum's ecosystem regarding its Web3 RPC, accounts, password systems, subscriptions, documentation, Ethereum wallets, and developer tools. As a result, any Ethereum project can be replicated and deployed on Moonriver with low gas fees and at a faster speed.
Moonriver and Moonbeam try to maintain the same level of decentralization and security as their respective relay chains, Polkadot and Kusama. Moonriver has over 900 validators on its network and is the most active DeFi ecosystem on the Kusama mainnet. In addition, Moonriver and Moonbeam also have an emerging DeFi ecosystem with DEXs, lending and borrowing protocols, automated market makers (AMMs), staking protocols, launchpad, and more.
The primary use case of Moonriver is incentivizing collators and participants who run the core decentralized node infrastructure for smart contract execution. The platform also adopted a fully decentralized governance system from the beginning, where token holders use MOVR to govern the platform by proposing updates, electing council members, and voting on proposals.
MOVR price and tokenomics
The total supply of MOVR was 10 million at launch. The maximum supply is uncapped, with an annual inflation rate of 5 percent. The token inflation pays for network functions, including incentivizing collators, paying for the parachain slot on its relay chain, and rewarding token stakers.
In August 2021, 30 percent of MOVR tokens were distributed back to participants in the MOVR parachain auction on Kusama. The remaining 70 percent was reserved for developers, community initiatives, and other essential teams.
80 percent of the fees accrued from transactions and smart contract executions on the platform are burned, which creates a temporary deflation that affects MOVR's price. The other 20 percent is transferred to the treasury for community-voted projects.
About the founders
The Moonbeam Foundation financially backs both Moonbeam and Moonriver. Derek Yoo, an alumnus of the University of Pennsylvania, is the founder and CEO of these networks. Stefan Mehlhorn, the COO of both networks, has also founded two companies, Collego and Permessa. Alan Sapede, who has prior experience at companies like Google, Fuze, and Live Minutes, handles blockchain engineering.
All three team members have worked in the same roles for Pure Stake, an IT service body that also develops and powers Moonbeam.

What is cryptocurrency?
Cryptocurrencies, such as Moonriver, are digital assets that operate on a public ledger called blockchains. Learn more about coins and tokens offered on OKX and their different attributes, which includes live prices and real-time charts.
When was cryptocurrency invented?
Thanks to the 2008 financial crisis, interest in decentralized finance boomed. Bitcoin offered a novel solution by being a secure digital asset on a decentralized network. Since then, many other tokens such as Moonriver have been created as well.
ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) regulations for crypto assets aim to address their environmental impact (e.g., energy-intensive mining), promote transparency, and ensure ethical governance practices to align the crypto industry with broader sustainability and societal goals. These regulations encourage compliance with standards that mitigate risks and foster trust in digital assets.

Consensus Mechanism
Moonriver operates on a Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism, enhanced by Polkadot’s Nominated Proof of Stake (NPoS) model. This structure ensures secure, scalable, and decentralized transaction processing, leveraging the robust Substrate framework. Core Components: Nominated Proof of Stake (NPoS): Validators are selected through staking by token holders, known as nominators, who delegate their MOVR tokens to trusted validator nodes. Validators with higher stakes and nominations are chosen to validate blocks and secure the network. Collator Nodes: Moonriver employs collator nodes, responsible for aggregating transactions into blocks and submitting them to the Polkadot Relay Chain for final validation. Collators ensure fast block production while relying on Polkadot’s shared security. Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT): Moonriver integrates BFT properties to handle network disruptions and maintain consensus even if some validators act maliciously or become unavailable. Seamless Interoperability: As a parachain within the Polkadot ecosystem, Moonriver benefits from Polkadot’s cross-chain messaging protocols, enabling secure and efficient interoperability with other parachains and external blockchains.
Incentive Mechanisms and Applicable Fees
Moonriver’s incentive model ensures active participation from validators, nominators, and developers while maintaining network security and usability. Incentive Mechanisms: Staking Rewards: Validators and nominators earn MOVR tokens for securing the network and validating transactions. Collator Rewards: Collators, who propose blocks, are rewarded with MOVR tokens. Inflationary Rewards: New MOVR tokens are minted to fund staking and ecosystem development. Developer Incentives: A portion of rewards supports dApp development and ecosystem growth. Applicable Fees: Transaction Fees: Paid in MOVR for transfers and smart contract interactions, distributed to validators and collators. Gas Fees: Calculated based on transaction complexity, ensuring predictable costs. Fee Burning: A portion of fees is burned, reducing token supply over time to support value retention.

Energy consumption sources and methodologies
For the calculation of energy consumptions, the so called “bottom-up” approach is being used. The nodes are considered to be the central factor for the energy consumption of the network. These assumptions are made on the basis of empirical findings through the use of public information sites, open-source crawlers and crawlers developed in-house. The main determinants for estimating the hardware used within the network are the requirements for operating the client software. The energy consumption of the hardware devices was measured in certified test laboratories. Due to the structure of this network, it is not only the mainnet that is responsible for energy consumption. In order to calculate the structure adequately, a proportion of the energy consumption of the connected network, kusama, must also be taken into account, because the connected network is also responsible for security. This proportion is determined on the basis of gas consumption. When calculating the energy consumption, we used - if available - the Functionally Fungible Group Digital Token Identifier (FFG DTI) to determine all implementations of the asset of question in scope and we update the mappings regulary, based on data of the Digital Token Identifier Foundation.
