WELCOME TO COSMOS
The Internet of Blockchains.Cosmos is an ever-expanding ecosystem of interconnected apps and services, built for a decentralized future.
Enter a new universe of connected services.
Cosmos apps and services connect using IBC, the Inter-Blockchain Communication protocol. This innovation enables you to freely exchange assets and data across sovereign, decentralized blockchains.
ENTER THE COSMOS HUB
The heart of the Interchain.Serving as the economic center of Cosmos, the Cosmos Hub is a blockchain that provides vital services to the Interchain.
MarketplaceSet to operate a next-gen decentralized exchange, swapping digital assets from across the Interchain, with very low fees and instant transaction confirmation.
Security providerWith the upcoming Interchain Staking feature, ATOM will soon be securing many chains, in exchange for additional staking rewards.
RouterA core mission of the Hub – to connect chains by establishing IBC connections with compatible chains and operating decentralized bridges with chains like Ethereum and Bitcoin.
CustodianLocated at the crossroads of the Interchain, the Hub is extremely secure, the best place to hold digital assets and manage accounts across many chains.
Secured by the ATOM.
In return for securing the services on the Cosmos Hub, transaction fees and staking rewards are distributed to ATOM stakers.
The most trusted way to build value.Cosmos SDK is a state-of-the-art blockchain framework that powers the Cosmos Hub and its rapidly expanding orbit of sovereign chains.
Developers can use the SDK to build innovative applications that create value through exchange with the Cosmos Hub.
