The cryptocurrency project Evmos, which allows deploying Ethereum smart
contracts on the Cosmos blockchain, decided to completely abandon the
support of native Cosmos transactions and focus on Ethereum by the end
of 2024.
Developers
believe this change will increase efficiency and simplify numerous
processes, including wallet development, which will no longer need to
account for the peculiarities of two blockchains, such as dual-hash
transaction indexing.
Nonetheless,
Evmos has pledged to maintain key Cosmos features, including staking
and token transfers, through specific EVM extensions (Stake, Vesting,
IBC Transfers). The team has urged users to switch to EVM-compatible
wallets while the option is available.
Beyond
boosting developer efficiency, this strategic move is intended to
optimize the project as a whole. It aims to free up resources for better
integration with Ethereum while not completely discontinuing
collaboration with Cosmos.
