All about #Cosmos: the empire of #blockchains .

Mega bull case 🐂

Massive airdrops, grand vision, holy shit this ecosystem is nuts don't sleep on it

A thread 👇🧵(1/21)

$ATOM #CosmosEcosystem #COSMONAUTS Image
1. #Cosmos is layer 0. It itself is not a blockchain.

It’s a framework for building independent and sovereign blockchains, called zones, that exchange information permissionlessly. Image
2. Instead of having every independent blockchain build itself from scratch ( which is crazy inefficient), Cosmos provides a template known as #Comos SDK.

Cosmos SDK makes deploying a zone as easy as launching a smart contract (HUGE).
3. Cosmos allows for practical interoperability without having a shared layer of security like #ETH

The security layer in ETH is uniform, every app has the same level of security

However, in #Cosmos, each zone must choose its own level of security for its purpose
4. #Cosmos has this protocol called Inter Blockchain Communication (IBC), which is a protocol that allows different blockchains to talk to each other.
5. Most Blockchains can be likened to closed off countries that cannot communicate with each other. However, this goes against the ethos of web3 and is not sustainable

#COSMONAUTS
6. Nations can only prosper if there is communication between them. As @Crypto_Clarke puts it "Country A might be a massive producer of food while Country B is a manufacturer. The two countries must devise ways of communicating and exchanging value if they both want to prosper."
7. IBC bridges this gap and allows for a huge amount of possibilities. Through IBC, #NFTs, tokens and data can be transferred
8. Cosmos utilizes a Tendermint, a Byzantine Fault tolerant (BFT) mechanism for consensus. Even if 1/3 of nodes fail, it still works. It’s pretty secure
9. $Atom is the native token for the #Cosmos Hub. It’s used for transaction fees, staking and governance.

$Atom has a market cap of $8.3B and it the 20th largest cryptocurrency. $Atom holders get airdrops. Some have been massive. Huge incentive to hold atom. Image
10. The more I look into Cosmos, the more excited I’ve been getting.

The project is visionary. It stands true to the ethos of decentralization and interoperability. There is no lab or leader that decides on core features. Hundreds of teams are contributing to the ecosystem.
12. It promotes self sovereignty while existing and interacting with the larger ecosystem.

Each project is connected to a massive, ever expanding ecosystem. They can all communicate through IBC and interact with each other. This will allow them to flourish.
13. #Terra, #BSC and #thorchain are built into this ecosystem. As more chains join the network effects will kick in, driving exponential growth.

The team is composed of giga brains who have a long term vision that they are laser focused on.
14. #Cosmos is maturing and growing. $Atom has some weaknesses, but these can be fixed.

Cosmos is focused on building a product and ecosystem that has utility and is what the users want. Then, they will monetize. This is a startup 101 model and it works.
15. The #Comos model has many benefits. It’s scalable. It’s optimized for the developer experience. It’s communicative.

Cosmos is an empire of chains. #Terra #LUNA and #Binance smart chain are built on Cosmos. Once hundreds of chains join, this ecosystem will explode.
16. Additionally, another huge reason to be bullish is that there are many airdrops coming for $Atom and other token stakers.

$250 invested in $JUNO in Dec could’ve been worth $45k+ two months later. As the ecosystem grows, there will be so many opportunities.

$OSMO $SCRT
19. It's nuts

It will blow your mind

Stop sleeping on #Cosmos.

22. Thanks for reading my #Cosmos thread. I write 101s and dumbed down threads on all things crypto. Follow to keep up!

Here are threads I wrote on other chains (#AVAX, #Terra, #Fantom, #Polygon)

#THORChain 101: the bridge between the multi chain universe ⛓️

Here is everything you need to know about THORchain and $RUNE, the cross chain AMM that is positioned to change world of crypto.

A thread 🧵👇
2. The entire ethos of the #crypto world rests upon decentralization and immutability. In the past few years, we’ve seen the rise of many chains. It’s become very clear, the future of crypto is multi chain.
3.Every chain has its pros and cons and the most optimized world is multi chain. We’ve seen this being built already with #COSMOS.

However, despite the strides we’ve taken towards decentralization, many crucial entities have remained centralized, like Coinbase and Binance.

$METIS 101: The L2 that solves #ETH's problems

ETH is slow af, expensive af and cant scale

A layer 2 is a framework that helps the base layer (known as L1) scale. This is done by taking the transactions off the L1

🧵👇 ( A thread | 1/22) Image
2. The Scalability trilemma that all blockchains face is that they can only choose 2 out of 3: scalability, decentralization and security.

L2s are a solution that aims at making non scalable chains like #ETH scalable. Image
3. #METIS is building an easy-to-use, highly scalable, low-cost, and fully functional Layer 2 framework (Metis Rollup) to fully support the application and business migration from Web 2.0 to Web 3.0. Image

DeFi Kingdoms 101: the #GameFi blockchain game that's on its way to being the king of #Blockchain games👑

Here's your everything guide to #DFK 🐂

A thread 🧵👇👑

#defikingdom
2. DeFi Kingdoms (DFK) is a cross chain #GAMEFI MMORPG .

It’s a game, a DEX, a liquidity pool opportunity, and a market of rare utility driven #NFTs.

GameFi is the intersection of DeFi, NFTs and the metaverse.
3. #DFK has complex mechanics and brings pixelated retro art to DeFI. It was originally built on the #HarmonyONE $ONE network, but has recently expanded to their own DFK chain powered by #AVAX.

The future of crypto is multi chain. #ETH is great but has a lot of problems. It's scalability sucks and gas is super expensive.

There's a reason why ETH's #DeFi dominance is down 100%

Alt chains are fast, secure and cheap. There's room for more than just ETH. 🧵

#Blockchain
Yes, ETH 2.0 will solve some of the problems, but there's still time for it to come out.

In this super fast paced world that crypto is, a lot of players are already building and being very successful on other chains.
Besides, ETH 2.0 is not gonna make it the perfect chain.

Harmony 101: the $ONE for all blockchain

Here's a thread all about #HarmonyONE, the fast, low cost #ETH VM compatible blockchain that's home to #DeFiKingdoms 🧵👇
2. We’ve talked about this many times before. #ETH sucks at scaling and gas is super expensive.

ETH has been losing market share, especially to fast, low cost chains like #Solana, #Terra and #BSC.
3. ETH’s #DeFi dominance is down 100% from 1 year ago. Alternative chains are well position to grow and eat more of ETH’s market share. The crypto world is going to become multi chain

#DeFi 101: Liquidity pools 🧵👇

Liquidity pools are pools of tokens locked in smart contracts. They allow for trading to happen by providing liquidity.
2. In Traditional Finance, market makers constantly buy and sell assets. This ensures that there is always a buyer and always a seller, allowing trading to happen.
3. In #DeFi, it’s not efficient or viable to have a market maker because every interaction costs gas and the number of transactions per second on #ETH is quite low.
