Yes AND no.
They move while the charge is developing or when it is being released,
but they don't move (except for local motion) while the charge is maintained.
static electricity
yes, static electricity travels to sharp edges.
static electricity
Static electricity does not move, as it stays in one place until it is discharged through a conductor. Static electricity is the build-up of electric charge on the surface of objects due to an imbalance of electrons.

No, electricity always involves the movement of electrons. Static electricity is built up through friction or rubbing electrons off of other substances, so the electrons didnt get there by a current. But when a circuit is completed, the electrons can move to create an equilibrium.
They become charges
Everything is made up of atoms and they hold electrons, protons and neutrons. Electrons can move. Static electricity is the presence of either too many electrons (negative charge) or too few electrons (positive charge). The movement of static electricity ... normally called an "electric current" ... is the flow of electrons from one place to another.
No. Static energy is present, whether charges (such as protons, or electrons) move, or not.
In static electricity, the only part of the atom that moves is the electrons. When two surfaces rub against each other, electrons can move from one material to the other, leading to a buildup of static charge.
Static means it doesn't move. This is essentially what static electricity is, a charge tht has no current. It is made by the transfer of electrons, as a pose to a cell or battery.
