What is Movement (MOVE)?

Movement is an L2 solution created using MoveVM, aiming to offer developers a powerful, efficient, and scalable platform to create the next-gen dApps.

The Movement Foundation is the driving force behind the Movement ecosystem, as revealed by the official website of the project and it’s dedicated to the following targets:

  • Fostering innovation
  • Supporting developers
  • Advancing the adoption of MoveVM technology

Movement Labs revealed the official whitepaper of the project on November 21, 2024: “Move Stack Chains: A Network of High-Throughput Fast-Finality Move-Based Rollups Secure4d by Ethereum Version 0.2.5”

Move Stack Chains

The whitepaper’s Abstract addresses the introduction of Move Stack Chains – a secure and scalable network of Move-based rollups secured by Ethereum that address the need for safer execution environments.

Move Stack, a modular framework for creating highly customizable Move Rollups, is at the core of this network.

The Movement Network revealed the best features of Move Stack as follows:

  1. Move Executor: A high-throughput execution layer with MoveVM, parallel execution, and EVM compatibility
  2. Fast-Finality Settlement Mechanism: This achieves confirmation in seconds, by leveraging economic security from a network of validators, maintaining Ethereum’s security
  3. Modularity: Integration with multiple DA services and sequencers; developers can also opt for validity or optimistic rollup configurations to achieve the best Ethereum security

The whitepaper’s Abstract also mentions Move Arena – a complex infrastructure that integrates Move Stack Chains with the project’s services, enabling an ecosystem of next-gen interoperable rollups.

Rollups benefit from DSS – the decentralized shared sequencer network, which allows the following:

  • Enabling seamless cross-rollup interoperability
  • Enhancing censorship resistance
  • Eliminating single points of failure

DSS is secure via the multi-staking mechanism that:

  • Brings economic security across Move Stack Chains and beyond
  • Minimizes the infrastructure requirements
  • Maximizes the sovereignty of each Move Rollup
