Blockchain development firm Adoriasoft has released a new SDK that will give Cosmos chains superpowers. Its Cosmos SDK Parachain Development Kit will enable any Cosmos chain to be deployed on Polkadot, opening up Cosmos projects to the Substrate ecosystem of interoperable networks.<\/p>\n

The ramifications of this move are significant, with the potential to suck Cosmos projects into Polkadot\u2019s irresistible orbit. While Cosmos and Polkadot both utilize Proof-of-Stake, the networks\u2019 architecture is markedly different, one built with Tendermint and the other with Substrate. Adoriasoft has made a breakthrough in finding a way for Cosmos chains to connect to Polkadot, without needing to rebuild their product from the ground up. The SDK should benefit Polkadot in particular, by luring talented Cosmos developers into its panoply of parchains, all connected to the Polkadot Relay Chain.<\/p>\n

An independent chain cannot coherently communicate information or pass data to applications on other blockchains as they are like different planets, with no connection between them. Adoriasoft\u2019s Cosmos SDK Development Kit will allow Cosmos blockchains to connect with any other blockchain using parachains. This will help Cosmos developers greatly, allowing them to tap into the cryptosphere\u2019s most liquid and secure Proof-of-Stake network.<\/p>\n

Bridging the Gap<\/h3>\n

Cosmos and Polkadot work under two very different security models. Polkadot uses parachains that have their own state machine and work under their own rules. All of the parachains are secured by the Relay Chain which has its own consensus algorithm called GRANDPA. All of the security for each parachain comes from the GRANDPA consensus, using a shared security model.<\/p>\n

With Cosmos Network, however, rather than coming under the umbrella of a Relay Chain, which gives global protection to the parachains under it, each blockchain must secure itself. That means these blockchains are only protected by validators, which results in a greater attack surface and unfairly burdens smaller projects with network security costs. Developers working with Cosmos SDK must bootstrap their own security protocol, which can take a huge amount of time and effort to build and monitor.<\/p>\n

In its Github grant document<\/a>, Adoriasoft explains how this benefits the Polkadot ecosystem:<\/p>\n
