buy moon river now that moonbeam is out? Can anyone explain this to me as far as I knew moon river was just a test network on Kusama . So is it not now redundant with moonbeam’s release ?
Not financial advice. I'll just explain what's what Moonriver is the сanary network on Kusama, which is the engine of progress. All the most daring tests will take place there before deploying to Moonbeam, any important feature will always go through Moonriver first. Moonriver can be seen as a faster moving more community focused network. Some projects that don't need such strong security guarantees will only deploy to Moonriver. Also, in Moonriver, projects with dual deployment will be able to test new features, gather community feedback, and then bring them to their Moonbeam deployment. These are just a few examples. Moonbeam will need Moonriver as well, because Moonriver is where the codebase will be tested before being sent to Moonbeam. Its similar to the question of how kusama and polkadot can co-exist. There is and will continue to be a huge demand for blockspace based on increasing web3 adoption, so I expect different communities and use cases to form around each network. I find it extremely unlikely that one or the other will get all the usage and the other no usage. one possibility is that e.g. games and perhaps nft use cases center on moonriver and higher value defi use cases on moonbeam, but this is pure speculatoin at this point. we will have to see how it plays out. It seems to me that since Moonriver is faster in the field of making various decisions, the network is and will be in great demand. Many projects also opt for dual deployment
I re-read this just now. Thanks for such a detailed response. You really helped me out mate. I’ve decided to invest in both eco systems. I’m DCA’ing over the next 18 months on both. I think they could do really well next cycle.
