Exosama Network

What is Exosama Network?

The Exosama Network is an EVM-compatible blockchain built by Moonsama to power its ecosystem of games, NFTs, tokens, and other blockchain applications. It uses a Proof of Authority consensus model and is optimized for high throughput and low transaction fees.

The Exosama Network provides Moonsama with more control and flexibility during this period of rapid growth, before transitioning to the shared security of the Polkadot relay chain.

Why was the Exosama Network created?

Moonsama launched the Exosama Network in October 2022 to serve as the foundation for its growing ecosystem. Reasons for creating a custom blockchain include:

Avoid risk of outgrowing capacity on other networks like Moonriver
Implement custom features needed for Moonsama's products
Control governance and validator set during rapid growth
Test new features and upgrades in a sandbox environment
Bridge assets to Moonriver, Moonbeam, Ethereum, and other chains

Is there a Block Explorer?

Yes, the Exosama Network can be explored via the block explorer at https://explorer.exosama.com. This allows searching transactions, viewing contract data, checking balances, and more.

Accounts, Transactions, Gas Fees?
