cosmos-sdk VS substrate

Protocols like Polkadot and Cosmos focus on making blockchains inherently interoperable. They create ecosystems where chains can share data and assets natively.

This is a old known issue called "clipping" in the Cosmos SDK that happens when a validator was previously jailed and slashed: https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/5282

💡 GasMultiplier Instead of specifying the gas price, you may use the "gas": "auto” so that the blockchain application automatically estimates gas for you before submitting the transaction into the network for consensus with the estimate. This is why we include the gasMultiplier. By providing the gas multiplier you are specifying that the gas estimate should be multiplied by this number to account for possible changes in the gas fee estimate and the eventual gas fee. See The estimate is not always the exact gas required for the transaction execution.

Shido is now listed on cosmos.network. Shido Chain is interoperable with all chains and dApps in the Cosmos for value sharing and joint liquidity through the IBC Protocol.

We have pinned this post to bring information front and center on the Cosmos Network Project and its evolution into the Internet of Blockchains. A new Interchain Era is here, bringing interoperability, scalability, and mass adoption to the Cosmos Ecosystem!

Cosmos (ATOM) is a dPoS blockchain. Often it is named in the list of 3rd generation blockchains like ADA, DOT, ALGO, etc. As one can already see it has a lot of competition. To be able to get a better view of ATOM it is to not describe what it is in itself but how it compares to its competitors.

The cosmos.network website is not indexed by Bing. Someone noticed this and created a scam website my-cosmos[.]network which is ranking very high for the search term "cosmos network"

Upgrade Cosmos-SDK to SDK v0.44 from SDK v0.42 For a full list of updates in Cosmos-SDK v0.44.3 please see its changelog. Noteable highlights include:\n - Authz - Allows granting arbitrary privileges from one account (the granter) to another account (the grantee). \n- New modules:\n - Bech32IBC - Allows auto-routing of send msgs to addresses on other chains, once configured by governance. Allows you to do a bank send on Osmosis to a cosmos1... address, and it is automatically sent to the corresponding Cosmos Hub address over IBC. This is a big step in enabling more seemless IBC UX.\n - TxFees - Enables validators to easily accept txfees in multiple assets, whitelisted by governance, by declaring minimum fees in OSMO. Alternative fee assets are converted to their OSMO value, using the spot price on their primary OSMO base pair pool. This upgrade pre-whitelists all the assets currently supported on the Osmosis frontend with an OSMO basepair pool.\n- Implements Proposal 32 - Clawback of unclaimed Osmo and Ion on airdrop end date. (December 15th, 5PM UTC)\n- Upgrade IBC from a standalone module in the SDK to IBC v2. This improves the utility of Ethereum Bridges and Cosmwasm bridges.\n- Blocking OFAC banned ETH addresses \n- Numerous minor bug fixes, gas fixes, and significant speedups.

Substrate — a framework for building application-specific blockchains (written in Rust);

frame-benchmarking = { version = "4.0.0-dev", default-features = false, optional = true, git = "https://github.com/paritytech/substrate.git", branch = "polkadot-v1.0.0" }

To offer some perspective outside of the typical "all crypto is a scam", Parity is doing some cool stuff with a rust modular blockchain library called Substrate https://github.com/paritytech/substrate.

Rust takes the cake in the blockchain space: Substrate, Cosmos (CosmWasm), and Solana. All of the zero knowledge cryptography libraries used for layer 2 solutions are written in Rust, compiling to Wasm (see arkworks, Risc0). Ethereum's next version of smart contracts will even use a restricted subset of Wasm ("Ewasm") instead of EVM.

Verifying NPoS election solution graph and its score is a memory-intensive operation that needs to be performed within a single block time. Under the current runtime constraints, a solution graph with 22,500 nominators can be verified well within the block production time on Polkadot. There are plans to improve on this and implement multi-block election solution verification, after which, the NPoS system can scale to incorporate more nominators.

Fast-unstake is now available on Kusama. This allows instant unstaking if you have not participated in staking in the last 28 eras. https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pull/12129

First, any outstanding multisig calls (ones where one signatory has signed, but not the threshold) will not be able to execute. Please either finish your multisig calls before this upgrade, or wait until after it is completed. https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pull/12072
