Overview

Movement provides several networks with different architectures for development and production needs:

L1 Networks

1. L1 (Testnet) — A native L1 testing environment that provides developers with a safe space to build and test applications using the full Move execution environment before deploying to production networks.
2. L1 (Devnet) — A native L1 development network for testing the latest protocol features and upgrades, providing early access to new functionality in the Movement ecosystem. It may reset frequently.

Sidechain Networks

3. Sidechain (Mainnet) — Currently operating as a sidechain serving production traffic with real economic value. This network will eventually migrate to become the flagship L1 network.

Timeline and Roadmap

Phase 1 (Current: Devnet) focuses on core L1 infrastructure development and integrating developer tools.

Phase 2 (Testnet Migration) involves testnet transitions to L1 architecture, creating a production-like testing environment. Extended testing and validation period with community.

Phase 3 (Mainnet Migration) covers mainnet transitions from sidechain to L1, achieving full decentralization, and launching the production L1 network. A complete native blockchain ecosystem is achieved.
