About Cosmos
The staking asset of the Cosmos Hub within a wider ecosystem of connected chains.
The Cosmos Hub launched in 2019 as an early network built with the Cosmos SDK and inter-blockchain communication vision.
Cosmos appears in this directory for research, not as an endorsement. Its interoperability network design should be judged through the documented network, supply, control, and failure model rather than through the ATOM unit price alone.
How to read the ATOM price
The displayed ATOM reference is the latest available observation from Coinbase Exchange for ATOM/USD. It belongs to that venue, quote asset, and timestamp; Cosmos has no single official global price.
An executable ATOM order can differ after spread, depth, slippage, fees, payment method, and location. The market label above shows which currency or asset defines the observed price.
