About Cosmos Hub

Cosmos describes itself as the “Internet of Blockchains,” functioning as an ecosystem that allows various blockchains to communicate. It emphasizes interoperability, speed, and scalability. At its core, Cosmos is a network composed of multiple blockchains, each operating with its own consensus algorithm and interconnected through the Cosmos network. The ATOM token is crucial for securing the network via its Proof-of-Stake mechanism. So, what are the main features of ATOM and how does it operate? In simple terms, Cosmos can be understood as a layered blockchain system—comprising a consensus layer, a network layer, and an application layer. In Cosmos, the first two layers are combined into Tendermint BFT, enabling developers to create applications without strict adherence to the lower layers...
