Quick Navigation

What Is Evmos?

Evmos is coined from the two words “EVM” (Ethereum Virtual Machine) and Cosmos. Evmos is a scalable, high-throughput Proof-of-Stake blockchain that is fully compatible and enables interoperability with Ethereum. It’s built using the Cosmos SDK which runs on top of the Tendermint Core consensus engine.

Evmos allows for running vanilla Ethereum as a Cosmos application-specific blockchain. This allows developers to have all the desired features of Ethereum, while at the same time, benefiting from Tendermint’s PoS implementation.

Evmos allows Ethereum developers to port their existing protocol over into the Cosmos ecosystem.

Also, because it is built on top of the Cosmos SDK, it will be able to exchange value with the rest of the Cosmos Ecosystem through the Inter Blockchain Communication Protocol (IBC).

But Evmos wants to broaden its reach by giving incentives to any Ethereum users who have got rekt by fees or bad projects.
