Moonbeam is an Ethereum-compatible smart contract platform on
the Polkadot network that makes it easy to build natively interoperable
applications. This Ethereum compatibility allows developers to deploy
existing Solidity smart contracts and DApp frontends to Moonbeam with
minimal changes.
Derek Yoo is the CEO of PureStake, the technology company behind the Moonbeam Network. He recently joined the Bitcoin.com News Podcast to talk about the technology:
Derek Yoo is a serial Web2 technology entrepreneur who has spent the
past 20 years building successful software and cloud companies. Prior to
creating Moonbeam, Derek was the co-founder and CTO of Fuze, where he
led the product and engineering teams in the creation of a global
Unified Communications-as-a-Service cloud platform with points of
presence all around the world, a low latency global network, and a suite
of end user web, desktop, and mobile communications applications.
During his time at Fuze, the company grew to 700 employees and a $150M
run rate.
Like Moonriver, its sister parachain on Kusama, Moonbeam is expected
to accumulate developer and user activity from the 80+ projects building
DApps and protocols on the network. As a parachain on the Polkadot
network, Moonbeam benefits from the shared security of the Polkadot
Relay Chain and integrations with other chains that are connected to
Polkadot. Learn more at: https://moonbeam.network/.
