Move VM 🤝 Substrate

Substrate blockchains can now execute Move smart contracts, and Move parachains can be built on Polkadot, thanks to the team at Eiger 🙌

This integration will open new avenues for developers to leverage Move's capabilities while building on Substrate-based networks.

Move was designed and created as a platform-agnostic, secure, and verified programming language and has since become used by blockchains like Sui and Aptos
