The Rise of Stables in Cosmos

  1. Stable: Stablecoin chain powered by USDT

  2. Noble: Cosmos’s stablecoin issuance layer (USDC, USDN)

  3. Ondo Finance: RWA tokenization, especially U.S. Treasuries (USDY, OUSG)

  4. Shade Protocol: Privacy-preserving & basket-pegged stablecoin SILK

  5. Pryzm: IBC access to sUSDC from SKY on Ethereum

Highlights from Sovereign EVM Day

  • 18 projects building on sovereign EVM tech on Cosmos

  • Mainnet launch of XRPL EVM Sidechain

  • Showcasing Stride DEX powered by IBC Eureka

  • Bringing 1B Telegram users on-chain via TAC

  • Babylon Dual VM (CW + EVM)

The EVM is tacking over Cosmos

  • Ripple (XRPL EVM Sidechain; live on mainnet)

  • Sei Network (Parallelized EVM, live on mainnet)

  • TacBuild (Telegram DeFi chain; live on dev mainnet)

Every real business will have its own blockchain

And Cosmos offers the best tech to build a sovereign chain:

  1. It gives businesses full-stack control

  2. IBC Eureka lets you connect everywhere

  3. Cosmos EVM opens the ecosystem to millions of developers
