the interchain ecosystem where bostrom — the bootloader for cyber — launched and operates. Cosmos provides the consensus engine (Tendermint/CometBFT), the SDK for building sovereign blockchains, and the IBC protocol for cross-chain communication
bostrom is a Cosmos SDK chain. it uses Tendermint BFT for consensus, inheriting instant finality and a delegated proof-of-stake validators model. the Cosmos architecture gives bostrom sovereignty — its own validator set, governance, and state — while maintaining interoperability with other Cosmos chains through IBC
IBC (Inter-Blockchain Communication) allows tokens and data to flow between Cosmos chains. neurons on bostrom can transfer assets to and from other IBC-connected networks, bridging the cybergraph to the broader interchain economy
the cyber protocol extends beyond Cosmos. as the protocol matures, nox replaces the Cosmos SDK runtime with a native execution environment built on stark proofs and the cyber/bbg state structure. the Cosmos heritage remains in the consensus and networking layers
