Built using the Cosmos SDK, Osmosis utilizes Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) to enable cross-chain transactions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Osmosis was founded in 2021 by Sunny Aggarwal and Josh Lee. Sunny previously worked with Cosmos as a Research Scientist at Tendermint, the company behind the open-source software on which the Cosmos ecosystem is built. In October 2021, Osmosis raised $21 million dollars in a token sale led by Paradigm, the crypto venture capital firm.<\/p>\n<p>As mentioned earlier, Osmosis is one of the projects benefiting from the increased interest in Cosmos and its \u2018Internet of Blockchains\u2019 concept. Essentially, the big idea behind Cosmos is to produce a consistent development and messaging framework called the Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) Protocol, which allows developers to build interoperable blockchains.<\/p>\n<p>Each blockchain has its own specific functions and benefits, related to its target user group. In the case of Osmosis, the aim is to act as the main AMM between Cosmos-based blockchains. However, more than this, Osmosis aims to extend the use of AMMs beyond common token swap use cases.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"-our-belief-is-that-the-design-space-of-amms-is-still-massively-underexplored-we-can-expand-them-into-automated-algorithms-for-things-we-might-not-even-think-of-today-as-market-making-sunny-aggarwal-founder-of-osmosis-\">\u201cOur belief is that the design space of AMMs is still massively underexplored\u2026we can expand them into automated algorithms for things we might not even think of today as market-making.\u201d \u2014 <strong>Sunny Aggarwal, Founder of Osmosis<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In terms of the specific features that Osmosis offers, some of the most important ones are:<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"customizable-sovereign-pools\">Customizable &amp; sovereign pools<\/h2>\n<p>Liquidity pools are self-governing and completely customizable through governance.<\/p>\n<p>All key parameters are customizable, including swap fees, token weight, curve algorithm and time-weighted-average price (TWAP) calculations. Nothing in the Osmosis AMM is hard-coded, so liquidity providers can vote to change any pool parameter, including swap fees, token rates, reward incentives and curve algorithms.<\/p>\n<p>New curves can also be easily created in the blink of an eye. This is important because it removes the need to create a new AMM if the model changes. Developers can simply deploy new curves and take advantage of the already existing liquidity in the ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>This unique functionality could enable the decentralized formation of token fundraisers, an options market or even interchain staking.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"-liquidity-pools-in-osmosis-are-designed-to-be-highly-customizable-fees-asset-weights-and-bonding-curves-are-all-design-choices-made-and-maintained-by-the-pool-s-creators-these-parameters-open-up-new-opportunities-for-protocol-level-improvements-like-superfluid-staking-messari-crypto-research\">\u201cLiquidity pools in Osmosis are designed to be highly customizable: fees, asset weights, and bonding curves are all design choices made and maintained by the pool\u2019s creators. These parameters open up new opportunities for protocol-level improvements like superfluid staking.\u201d \u2014 Messari Crypto Research<\/h3>\n<h2 id=\"superfluid-staking\">Superfluid staking<\/h2>\n<p>While previous projects have engaged in either yield farming to provide AMM stability or staking to maintain the protocol, Osmosis has chosen a totally unique approach called Superfluid Staking.<\/p>\n<p>Essentially, Superfluid Staking is a groundbreaking innovation allowing OSMO, the Osmosis governance token, to be used for staking and liquidity provision at the same time, thus maximizing rewards without having to trade security for liquidity within the network.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"legacymediumimages\" src=\"https:\/\/de.fi\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/1aRC6WRZwwr6P3KMXkEfZ_w.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Therefore, if a user provides liquidity and receives LP tokens in return, these can then be staked as well. In this way, the user generates yield from the LP rewards and from staking. Unlike traditional staking, where rewards must be claimed, Superfluid rewards are automatically added to the user\u2019s balance \u2014 just like LP rewards.<\/p>\n<p>Superfluid Staking is a solution that solves the liquidity problem by offering liquidity providers to earn staking rewards.<\/p>\n<p>This not only boosts the overall network security of Osmosis but also expands the utility of the OSMO token.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"liquidity-provider-lp-incentives\">Liquidity Provider (LP) incentives<\/h2>\n<p>In addition to the added incentive that superfluid staking provides, Osmosis also allows third parties to easily add incentive mechanisms to specific liquidity pools.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"-frontier-osmosis-zone-https-frontier-osmosis-zone-\"><a href=\"https:\/\/frontier.osmosis.zone\/\">Frontier Osmosis Zone<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>Frontier Zone is Osmosis\u2019s permissionless extension DEX, a playground where any token created and issued on the Cosmos network can be listed. This means that these tokens can be added to Osmosis Frontier without having a substantial liquidity contribution.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWhy Frontier? It is the best way for Osmosis to combine its commitments to permissionless listing on the one hand and superior UX on the other. It does this by allowing Osmosis to curate the primary front-end (app.osmosis.zone) for the best possible user experience, while at the same time allowing assets to appear permissionlessly on Frontier. Not only that, but the community will also get a chance to test the various bridging UX flows before voting on the canonical bridge for the primary front-end.\u201d <\/em>\u2014 official information From <a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/osmosis\/introducing-osmosis-frontier-d9da158b22d0\">Osmosis.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>In simple words, Frontier is the a freer version of the main DEX, where you have more tokens to \u2018play with\u2019:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bridged Ethereum assets<\/li>\n<li>Juno blockchain CW20 tokens<\/li>\n<li>Axelar Network Tokens<\/li>\n<li>Gravity Bridge Network Tokens<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"-info-osmosis-zone-https-info-osmosis-zone-\"><a href=\"https:\/\/info.osmosis.zone\/\">Info Osmosis Zone<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>It is a page, where you can connect your wallet, and view any information related to the chain, IBC, your pools, rates, prices, etc.<\/p>\n<p>As the name suggest, this is an Info zone, that will help you to always stay in the know about the current state of the network and the available pools.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"osmosis-in-the-news\">Osmosis in the News<\/h2>\n<p>June 9th, 2022 was the date for <a href=\"https:\/\/osmocon.com\/\">Osmocon, which marked the first birthday of Osmosis\u2019s mainnet launch<\/a> and took place in Austin, Texas. Osmocon\u2019s events and panels covered grants, tooling, NFTs, dapps, design and bridges.<\/p>\n<p>However, less encouraging events occurred just a day before, when reports emerged about a <a href=\"https:\/\/decrypt.co\/102300\/cosmos-based-defi-exchange-osmosis-hit-by-5m-exploit\">**$5 million exploit of Osmosis that led to developers halting the chain<\/a>**.<\/p>\n<p>According to reports, the Total Value Locked (TVL) on Osmosis dropped but the team tweeted that liquidity pools were not completely drained and developers were fixing the bug. From the exploitation, six users looted precisely $5 million. While two of them unintentionally made about $2 million and promised to return it in full, the remaining four have been silent and played anonymously to the looting.<\/p>\n<p>While this was clearly not an event the Osmosis team wanted to happen, there has been better news about the ecosystem\u2019s growth since then, including a partnership that involves <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/osmosis-dao-selects-axelar-as-bridge-service-provider-launches-cross-ecosystem-swaps-301568288.html\">**Axelar becoming a bridge to connect Osmosis with the Ethereum ecosystem<\/a>**.<\/p>\n<p>As far as partnerships go, <a href=\"https:\/\/crypto.news\/moonbeam-and-osmosis-collaborate-for-cross-chain-token-swap\/\">Moonbeam, a Polkadot parachain, and Osmosis recently collaborated for enabling cross-chain token swap<\/a> using the mentioned above Axelar\u2019s infrastructure.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"osmosis-technology\">Osmosis Technology<\/h2>\n<p>As mentioned, Osmosis is a Cosmos-based blockchain.
