Why Build on Movement

• Move-first execution environment with resource-oriented safety
• BlockSTM parallel execution for high throughput
• 1–3 second fast finality UX
• Compatibility with existing Aptos tooling and REST schemas

Quick Start

Endpoints

Movement RPC Endpoints

SDK Installation

npm i @aptos-labs/ts-sdk

import { Aptos, AptosConfig, Network } from '@aptos-labs/ts-sdk';

const config = new AptosConfig({
  network: Network.CUSTOM,
  fullnode: 'https://api-movement-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY/v1'
});
const aptos = new Aptos(config);
const ledger = await aptos.getLedgerInfo();
console.log('Move chain ID:', ledger.chain_id);

Network Information

Move REST API Reference

Movement exposes Aptos-compatible REST APIs at /v1 for MoveVM operations.

• Accounts
• Account Resources
• Account Modules
• Blocks
• Transactions
• Transaction Encode
• Transaction Simulate
• Events
• Tables
• Ledger
• Health

Movement-Specific Features

• BlockSTM Parallel Execution
• Fast Finality Settlement
• Shared Sequencer (M1)
• MEV Protection

Common Integration Patterns

• DEX or payments: leverage Move resources for precise asset accounting
• Data services: poll /v1/blocks and /v1/transactions for real-time indexing
• Custody/wallets: query account resources and event streams to reflect balances

Performance Best Practices

• Design for BlockSTM: avoid write conflicts to maximize parallelism
• Gas optimization: use Move simulations to estimate gas under load
• Finality-aware UX: consider 1–3s finality in confirmations and polling intervals

Migration Guides

• From Aptos: reuse Move modules with minimal changes; update REST base to Movement /v1
• From Sui: port object/resource models to Move on Movement; adjust package layout

Troubleshooting

• Ensure correct address format (hex with 0x prefix) and fully qualified module/function IDs
• Encode payloads with BCS and confirm signatures before submission
• Check /v1/-/healthy for node health and /v1/ledger for latest version
