Boston, MA – July 9, 2021 – Moonbeam, the Ethereum-compatible smart contract platform on Polkadot, announced today that Moonriver, its community-led sister network on Kusama, has completed the initial step of its five-phase launch process. Phase Zero began last Tuesday when Moonriver started producing blocks on Kusama, though governance and infrastructure operations were limited to the Moonbeam Team.
