Institutions quietly picking Cosmos plumbing (receipts):
▫️ @Mastercard Crypto Partner Program (85+ firms) - Cosmos Labs @cosmoslabs_io included for payments/settlement co-innovation.
▫️ Wells Fargo job reqs: building with Cosmos SDK + CometBFT + ABCI++ for regulated settlement.
▫️ Fidelity job reqs: explicitly lists Cosmos SDK (alongside EVM/Solana) in their stack.
▫️ Progmat + Datachain @progmat_en / @datachain_jp
: regulated stablecoin/settlement rails (Japan 200+ bank consortium).
▫️ NTT DATA + Datachain: enterprise interoperability demos using IBC (Fabric ↔ Cosmos). (h/t @WanderingCSMNT for the source!)
▫️ Honduras central bank @BancoCentral_HN disclosed MoU with Cosmos Labs + Peersyst for CBDC research + Cosmos/Cosmos EVM demos.
▫️ Ondo Chain @OndoFinance Cosmos SDK + Cosmos EVM for RWA issuance/finance rails.
▫️ Figure/Provenance @Figure / @provenancefdn : tokenizing mortgages/HELOCs on Cosmos Stack since 2018 (160K+ households served).
✅Institutions are picking the stack.
❔Open question: does any of this ever route value back to the Hub / $ATOM?
Nothing personal, just incentives.

CCN reports: $ATOM is likely to be one of few assets qualified as “Mature” under the US Clarity Act’s guidelines.
Once ratified, this would classify $ATOM at the SAME level as Bitcoin and Ethereum, opening $ATOM up to a massive new class of investors.

The last time we had 15% USD yield in Cosmos, we created the 3rd largest chain in history, surpassing Solana.
But this time, it’s fully collateralized.
To all ex-Terra builders - it’s time to come back.
This time, we’re doing it right, and doing it on the Hub itself.

This is a post to all the Cosmos builders.
First off, you are complete badasses for believing in the Cosmos vision. You have true grit to still be here.
Cosmos has been the most ambitious and challenging experiment in crypto. We are building the only credible Internet of Blockchains. We are actually decentralized. We have the widest-used blockchain stack in the industry, and building your own blockchain is extremely hard.
Given where the market is, and the reality of available liquidity, a lot of teams in Cosmos (like everywhere) are second guessing themselves. VCs are not deploying much, anywhere. There is a flight to quality, and to assets with fundamentals. A lot of teams are thinking of how to approach, and whether to bet on, the new era of Cosmos.
I want to personally say, we are changing everything about the ecosystem behind the scenes. In our new position, we are radically changing how we fund, support, and incubate teams. We are bringing in external investment, and supporting teams in-house. We are ravenous, and we are deeply committed. And we will fight for you, and with you, if you join us.
We cannot lift all boats. There are so many teams we will not be able to support, that probably deserve it. But we are committed to making the best teams in Cosmos shine and become massively successful.
Our strategy has been to focus on the success of the Cosmos Hub as the benchmark for the ecosystem. We want to build it into an incredible platform that onboards new users, provides magical services to app chains, and become the best place for new products to grow up. This will give users and investors a clear entry point, and give us the ability to grow more chains in the ecosystem. Everything we do, we do to grow the Internet of Blockchains.
If you are in Cosmos, this is the time to take off the gloves. This is the time to fight for your product & community, and to make a fuck ton of noise. This is the time to get down to fundamentals, accelerate what's working, and cut everything - and anyone - else. A simple product that does one thing 100% well is infinitely more valuable than doing 10 things at 80%. Focus on simplifying your onboarding experience, your branding, your best feature.
And if you are a founder, be a goddamn founder - do not blame your ecosystem. Missing liquidity? Go market and take it from Ethereum. Missing users? Take a flight, close Twitter, and market your product door-to-door. There is an entire world to be onboarded to the decentralized internet, and we need to work with real people to build something they want to use. No one is stopping you from growing - try different things, be bold. Crypto is called the Wild West for a reason.
If you want new energy, this is the time to leverage ATOM and its community - one of the largest and oldest communities in crypto - to supercharge your application and adoption. Speaking for the ATOM community, we are incredibly excited to use and try new things.
We will be your ally, and you will not have to build this alone. Cosmos has been fragmented for a long time, but as we come together - and if we rally around the Hub - we are unstoppable. Liquidity, users, and attention is attracted to unity, and this is our chance to stop infighting, bite our lip, and align. We've already learned the lessons that Ethereum, Solana, and everyone else are just learning now with their fracturing ecosystems. If we can do this, we can level up and execute a turnaround people will remember for decades.
In the coming months, we will launch the first-ever permissionless VM and ecosystem on the Cosmos Hub. We will bring liquidity, and incentives. It will be deeply integrated with ATOM. We will incubate and launch incredible new applications that use Eureka to natively distribute to users and capital on every ecosystem. And we will support any application built on the Hub to then become their own L1 application. It's time to build a new Cosmos.
We will use the Hub to unleash the builders, and we would love you to be one.

Cosmos is the next Solana.
2019 - 2022: apps deploy on Eth as the only option.
2022 - 2024: apps deploy on Sol since it's fast/liquid.
2025+: apps become sovereign, interoperable L1s with IBC V2.
The internet of blockchains, powered by $ATOM.
Honestly, I’m a little scared of the ATOM community.
They are more convicted than any group I’ve seen. They will outlast anyone, through anything. They bring belief to the next level. They’re warriors.
We have the makings of an empire.
PSA: the new excitement in Cosmos is convincing a lot of projects to be ATOM-aligned!
We're encouraging everyone to deploy on the Hub, but that *does not mean* we endorse them - even if a project says they're working with us, it's only true if we say this publicly on our official @cosmos or @interchain_io channels.
DYOR and stay tuned, lots of new stuff coming out this month.
Cosmos & ETHDenver
Sovereign chains, multichain liquidity, BTC security, and the fight for true interoperability.
Conversations that matter are happening in Denver 🏔️
Here's who’s speaking, what’s happening, and where to be 🧵👇
To everyone discovering the Hub is used as an IBC router -
You now understand the original Cosmos whitepaper!
By offering an incredible interop solution miles better than competition, Cosmos can sustainably build the best tech for you for years to come: massive win for the eco
@CoinGapeMedia If anyone happens to see this, it is fake news.
$ATOM's listing on Binance (for spot, perps, and margin) is alive and well and will be going forward.
Dual-investment is a niche product that has very few pairs, and does not constitute a "binance delisting"
Cosmos is expanding, but don’t just “trust me, bro.”
