Moonsama Network
The Moonsama Network is an EVM-compatible Polkadot parachain that will serve as the new production-grade blockchain for the Moonsama ecosystem.
About the Moonsama Network
The Moonsama Network parachain provides a secure, decentralized, and interoperable environment for Moonsama's games, NFTs, tokens, and applications to run on.
As a Polkadot parachain, Moonsama Network benefits from the shared security of Polkadot's relay chain, avoiding the risks associated with standalone chains. It can also seamlessly connect and exchange data with other parachains via Cross-Chain Message Passing (XCMP).
The Moonsama Network uses the Frontier EVM pallet to provide an Ethereum-compatible Web3 environment. This enables easy migration of smart contracts, tokens, NFTs, and other EVM assets from the Exosama Network testnet to the Moonsama Network mainnet.
The native token is SAMA, which is used for fees, staking, governance, and providing utility within Moonsama games and applications.
EVM Compatibility
The Moonsama Network uses a "unified" account system so the same account can be used to interact with EVM and native Substrate interfaces.
Addresses follow the Ethereum-style format using Secp256k1 cryptography (42 character hex, 20 byte). This ensures maximum compatibility with existing EVM wallets and applications.
Solidity smart contracts can be deployed on Moonsama Network the same way as on other EVM chains like Ethereum. This allows developers to easily port over their existing codebases.
Key Features
As a Polkadot parachain, key benefits of the Moonsama Network include:
- Shared Security - Relies on the entire Polkadot relay chain for security, avoiding risks of standalone chains.
- Interoperability - Can seamlessly connect and exchange data with other parachains via XCMP.
- On-Chain Governance - Leverages Polkadot's sophisticated governance system for network upgrades.
- Bridges - Easier to build bridges to external chains like Ethereum due to Polkadot's XCM protocol.
- Performance - Designed for high transaction throughput and fast block times to support games and applications.
Tokens
The Multi-Token pallet enables the creation of fungible and non-fungible token collections with custom permissions. This allows projects to issue tokenized assets on Moonsama ranging from in-game items to music rights.
The native token is SAMA, which serves as the gas currency and provides utility within Moonsama games, applications, governance, staking, and more.
Consensus
Moonsama Network uses a nominating system where SAMA holders can stake tokens to validator candidates to earn rewards and participate in securing the network.
This delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) model allows effective consensus while retaining user control through voting power based on staked SAMA.
