A Dispatch From the Front Lines of Multi-Chain Deployment
summary
Moonbeam reports helping 150 teams plan multi‑chain deployments and defines three patterns: bridged (ChainSafe’s ChainBridge, Axelar, Ren, an NFT bridge with inft.com), ported (same EVM code deployed to Moonbeam, Ethereum, BSC), and native multi‑chain (EVM smart contracts that call into substrate features via XCMP, staking access contracts). Teams need indexed data (The Graph, Covalent), richer block explorers and oracles; Moonbeam aims to be a Polkadot/Kusama parachain and says phased, safety‑first launches work.
