Add the Moonbeam Network
PNS now deploys on Moonbeam Network. Moonbeam is currently the most mature Ethereum compatible chain of Polkadot. It has obtained the Kusama and Polkadot slot. Please add the Moonbeam network to your Wallet (e.g. Metamask) and prepare GLMR in advance if you want to get one step ahead. PNS supports registration and renew payment by GLMR token. More tokens will be supported in subsequent updates.
