IBC to other ecosystems is no longer a myth.

Reminder: Interoperability is a public good.

All I can say is I’m overcome with gratitude for our community’s unwavering support throughout the ups and downs of this year, massive appreciation for a team that banded together and…
1/ 2023 was a landmark year for Composable and

I think what makes me most excited about Cosmos<>DOT over IBC is we can never hear other bridging projects say

IBC is not limited to the Cosmos.
