About Movement

Movement (MOVE) is an Ethereum Layer-2 network built using the Move Virtual Machine (MoveVM) — the smart contract language originally developed for Meta's Diem blockchain and later used by Aptos and Sui. Movement brings Move's safety advantages (resource-oriented programming, formal verification, no reentrancy attacks by design) to the Ethereum ecosystem via an L2 architecture. MOVE is the native gas and governance token. The project raised $38M and launched its mainnet in December 2024 with one of the largest token airdrops that year, attracting developers from both Ethereum and Move ecosystems.

How to Swap MOVE

Swapping Movement (MOVE) on SyntheticSwap is quick and requires no account or KYC. Since MOVE is an ERC-20 token on Ethereum, any Ethereum-compatible wallet works — MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Rainbow, or Ledger Live. Open SyntheticSwap, select MOVE as your source or destination asset, enter your receiving wallet address, and review the floating exchange rate. Once you send MOVE to the deposit address provided, the destination asset is delivered directly to your wallet. The process is fully non-custodial — SyntheticSwap never holds your tokens at any point.

How to Store MOVE

MOVE on Movement network uses Move-native wallets. MetaMask can be configured for Movement's EVM-compatible layer. Nightly Wallet and Razor Wallet support Movement natively. Ledger supports MOVE via MetaMask integration.
