Movement Labs, the team behind Movement Network, has officially launched the project’s mainnet beta along with a tokenization event for the native token. The MOVE token has a market cap of $1.8 billion at the time of writing. While the token is listed on cryptocurrency exchanges such as Binance and Bybit, it is not listed on Coinbase. This phase is the first phase of the network's infrastructure rollout, allowing providers to deploy core components such as follower nodes, RPC nodes, and indexers. Movement Network stands out as the first blockchain built with the Move programming language to integrate proof-of-stake mechanisms built directly into the Ethereum network. According to Movement Labs, this architecture increases both security and transaction finality thanks to a feature called “post-confirmations,” which allows transactions to be completed quickly. According to its developers, the Move programming language was designed to mitigate common vulnerabilities in smart contracts and encourage the development of secure decentralized applications.

Manche also explained that although the network uses Ethereum for security, it is not a traditional Layer 2 chain. They said that they operate as a sidechain.
