What is Cosmos (ATOM)

1. Project Introduction Cosmos is an ecosystem of interoperable blockchains that aims to be the "Internet of Blockchains." It focuses on interoperability, scalability, and user/developer accessibility. Cosmos addresses issues with current PoW systems such as high costs, low throughput, and environmental impact. Summary: Cosmos connects independent blockchains via the Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) protocol. It also simplifies DApp development through a modular architecture, reducing the barrier for blockchain adoption. 2. Team & Investment Info Founded by Jae Kwon, Zarko Milosevic, and Ethan Buchman.
