How to Buy ATOM Instantly With Your Credit or Debit Card

The Cosmos Network's goal is straightforward: to allow any blockchain to interact, share data, and transact with any other blockchain. By allowing several blockchains to interact, there is less of a need for these networks to compete to be the one blockchain that rules them all. Instead, several separate blockchains can coexist, each with its own set of specialized use cases and benefits.

The Cosmos Network is powered by three technologies: Tendermint – A consensus protocol that allows developers to develop proof of stake crypto projects. The Cosmos SDK – enables developers to build on top of the Tendermint-based blockchain. The Internet-Blockchain Communication Protocol (IBC) – A system that allows different blockchains to communicate using hubs.

ATOM is the native coin of the Cosmos network. Holding ATOMs allows the holder to stake and validate blocks, vote on governance issues, and pay for transaction fees on Cosmos.
