Skip/Interchain Labs is now Cosmos Labs: the core team driving development and growth of the @cosmos blockchain ecosystem and Cosmos technology stack.
200+ blockchains use the Cosmos Stack in production, the largest network of Layer 1 blockchains in the world.
By becoming Cosmos Labs, we are doubling down on the vision that customizable, connected blockchains are how the world will come on-chain.
Big changes for our next six months.
We're moving away from EVM on the Hub, and fully focusing on making the stack the absolute best way to launch L1s.
The world is coming onchain, and Cosmos is the #1 choice for the best teams already, with @TacBuild, @Ripple, @OndoFinance, @stable and many more launching this year.
By seizing this opportunity and leading the category, we can find more direct ways to monetize and grow ATOM, and leverage the Cosmos Hub to deliver incredible services to our partners.
Ultimately, this means a focus on bringing real businesses into Cosmos, tokenizing real assets, and building real, revenue-generating products for them. It's a step back from competing with Solana/Ethereum's on-chain ecosystems. We're focusing on what's winning.
We're six months old, and we're a startup. We're iterating quickly and running experiments. We've learned a ton so far, and we're extremely confident in what comes next.
My vision: every great business will have their own blockchain by 2030, connected by IBC. And that will be Cosmos.

Can everyone just be honest for 1 second please? The "Cosmos" you are threatening to leave has been on the path to slow, painful death for years.
The cosmos / cw developer ecosystem is the only major ecosystem tracked by electric capital that shrank last year.
We must must must prioritize growth and make big changes to have any hope of the original vision surviving:
- Connectivity and control without compromise.
- The best businesses and communities on the planet, participating in an open and connected on chain economy
If that means you and every single cosmwasm developer leaves so that Ripple, Telegram, Ondo, Stable and others can finally build with us, I will take that trade every day. I am sorry. There are not enough you, and we cannot afford to make enough of you. Hundreds of millions of dollars have gone into the EVM and building an ecosystem, tooling, and awareness around it.
Momentum continues to build for it. Robinhood engineers are now learning solidity. Stripe made 2 acquisitions of infra providers mostly in the EVM space. We just don't have enough money to attach the fate of the cosmos vision to the fate of the cosmwasm vm in particular
This is not easy for us. We fucking love cosmwasm:
- We have spent years building cosmwasm expertise across multiple teams in house
- Some of the most utilized cosmwasm contracts on the hub, osmosis, terra2, and neutron are the skip contracts
- The first smart contract I ever wrote was a cosmwasm contract.
We recognize how deeply important Cosmwasm is to the ecosystem, so we are continuing to fund maintenance and development at 7 figures for the next several years, working with a team that has a long-term product and ecosystem bet on it. A proper announcement is coming soon.
If you want to leave after that, be my guest. You should do what is best for you.
This is a demonstration that Cosmosโ new development model is working
We:
- Removed the contributor by consolidating dev under ICL
- Identified & blacklisted the contributor as malicious when they applied to our org
- Prevented most of their contributions from going live
Why TON 's app layer (@TacBuild) decided to build on @cosmos:
"Cosmos is the best way to build a Sovereign L1. There's an incredible ecosystem of partners to use, and it's the most battletested stack.
If you look at any successful L1, usually Cosmos is underneath."
Today, we're excited to make two big announcements!
- OpenHands LM: The strongest 32B coding agent model, resolving 37.4% of issues on SWE-bench Verified ๐
- OpenHands Cloud: SOTA open-source coding agents from your computer, phone, github, with $50 in free credits ๐โ๏ธ
I think Elon Musk should be expelled from the British Royal Society. Not because he peddles conspiracy theories and makes Nazi salutes, but because of the huge damage he is doing to scientific institutions in the US. Now let's see if he really believes in free speech.
Was watching @srush_nlp 's speculations https://t.co/Rlp62LGIOq 4 days ago and now there is an open model with whitepaper! Maybe https://t.co/gMJJoABgsY can be updated with code tutorials on reasoning models soon ๐ฅ
Post-mortem after Deepseek-r1's killer open o1 replication.
We had speculated 4 different possibilities of increasing difficulty (G&C, PRM, MCTS, LtS). The answer is the best one! It's just Guess and Check.

(At some point I wish I could make similar materials for Quantum Computing, Crypto and Robotics, but I don't feel I have accumulated enough materials to be helpful for others yet. Let's leave them to the next time!)
I bet many people have ran into this problem, so I curated some of the most useful materials to me as a programmer during my journey into LLMs.
Hope it's helpful to you too!
since i've seen a lot of bad takes regarding L2s and their censorship resistance, here's how i bypassed @soneium's sequencer and bought a banned token with a forced tx through L1 ๐งต
