Moonriver runs as a parachain within Kusama and was set up as a 'canary network' for Moonbeam, which runs within Polkadot. A canary network is a test network where certain features and updates are tested before going live.
MoreDevelopers can program smart contracts within Moonriver. The blockchain can work with the Ethereum Virtual Machine, allowing developers to use Solidity. Ethereum dApps can also be moved directly to Moonriver.

Moonriver runs as a parachain within Kusama, which is a test network of Polkadot. Moonriver is also a test network, which we call a canary network. Developers can develop new applications here, test updates, or add new features for Moonbeam, which runs within Polkadot. This way, developers can be sure that their application works before they decide to go live.
Because Moonriver provides support for the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), developers can create an application just as they would on Ethereum. It is also possible to duplicate an application from Ethereum to Moonriver. A special bridge allows tokens and other data to be exchanged between Moonriver and blockchains like Ethereum and Bitcoin.
MOVR is Moonriver's token and can be used to execute smart contracts, reward nodes and pay transaction fees. Of course, you can also use it as an investment if you are confident in Moonriver's future.
