Singapore, November 7, 2023 Moonbeam, the top destination for multi-chain applications on Polkadot, has announced an XCM integration with Zeitgeist, bringing the ZTG token to Moonbeam. This integration will enable the flow of liquidity between the Moonbeam and Zeitgeist networks inside Polkadot and remote chains via Moonbeam’s connected contracts.
Zeitgeist is an open prediction market platform built on Polkadot’s Substrate blockchain framework, enabling users to easily create and engage in markets across various domains. With this XCM connection, Zeitgeist brings a dynamic tool for assessing, testing, and implementing changes, which will open up new and novel use cases and collaborations in the Moonbeam ecosystem.
This integration means Moonbeam users can eventually harness the power of prediction markets for governance, decision-making, and data exchange, enhancing the ecosystem’s capabilities for forecasting, decision support, and data-driven applications.
Through innovations like Moonbeam Routed Liquidity and Cross-Chain Message Passing (XCM), Moonbeam serves as a vital hub for the various parachains. This interconnectedness is changing the game for blockchain networks by allowing assets to effortlessly navigate across different parachains, including those linked to Ethereum and other blockchains, bolstering liquidity.
Moonbeam integrations, like this one with Zeitgeist, empower developers to experiment and create, secure in the knowledge that they can effortlessly access resources from different chains, spurring innovation. As a result, the Polkadot ecosystem is becoming more versatile and robust, propelling the growth of DeFi, NFTs, and a host of other blockchain applications.
