Movement price

Movement is finally becoming an L1, The People’s Chain. Sub-second finality. Validators. Native $MOVE staking. Move 2 support. Why? Movement started as an Avalanche subnet, then pivoted to becoming an Ethereum L2 that would use Tendermint Consensus, Celestia for DA, and of course the MoveVM for execution. Although an ambitious goal, the Frankenstein thesis just didn’t make sense for us. The elephant in the room is that Movement never missed an opportunity to ride a meta. However, there is a fine line between strategic pivoting and constant redirection…and we strayed towards the latter. Constantly chasing narratives is just admission that you don’t have your own. When we diligently surveyed our builders and community, we realized that the original architecture/framework was not tenable for what we have set out to accomplish. We are no longer chasing “alignment”, we are pursuing the optimal Move builder and user experience. The Monza network upgrade was a huge milestone and turning point for Movement’s chain performance, but it's not enough. We need a framework that can support next generation perp dexes, RWA’s, global-scale DePin, wagerFi, AI agents, casual gaming, and use cases that remain to be seen. Move 2 first: Move 2 makes the Move advantage with advanced features like enum types and function values. Randomness will also finally be ready. No bullshit staking: When staking goes live, locked tokens can’t be staked. Unlocked tokens only. No team members or investors to jeet locked token rewards on your head. Seamless migration: So what do you have to do if you’re a Mover? Nothing. We are weeks away and will provide more details as we get closer. Wait a minute, I thought you were an L1 this whole time? Contrary to popular belief (looking at you @hosseeb), we never have been. There was a CT verbal fist fight between @toghrulmaharram and our team about how we are a sidechain, and not truly an L2….which is technically correct. So that's probably what you remember. L1 Testnet soon. Movement 2.0 is here. Gmove to the believers.
