Cosmos Hub (Gaia)

+

The Cosmos Hub is the first of an exploding number of interconnected blockchains that comprise theΒ Cosmos Network.

+ + Tweet +
+
-The Cosmos Hub is built using the [Cosmos SDK](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk) and to build a binary called `gaiad` (Gaia Daemon). The Cosmos Hub and other fully sovereign Cosmos SDK blockchains interact with one another using a protocol called [IBC](https://github.com/cosmos/ibc) that enables Inter-Blockchain Communication. In order to understand what the Cosmos Hub is you can read this [introductory explanation](https://hub.cosmos.network/main/hub-overview/overview.html). +

+
+ + +### πŸ‘€Β β€” Node Operators +___ If you're interested in running a node on the current Cosmos Hub, check out the docs to [Join the Cosmos Hub Mainnet](https://github.com/cosmos/gaia/blob/main/docs/gaia-tutorials/join-mainnet.md). -## Validators + +
+
+ + +### πŸ—£οΈΒ β€” Validators +___ If you're running a validator node on the Cosmos Hub, reach out to a Janitor on the [Cosmos Developers Discord](https://discord.gg/cosmosnetwork) to join the `#validators-verified` channel. -## Testnet + +
+
+ + +### πŸ‘₯ β€” Testnet +___ To participate in or utilize the current Cosmos Hub testnet that upgrades `cosmoshub-4` from gaia v5.0.x to gaia v6.0.x, take a look at the [vega-testnet](https://github.com/cosmos/vega-test) repository. This testnet is for the Vega Upgrade expected in Q4 2021. For future upgrades of the Cosmos Hub take a look at the [roadmap](https://github.com/cosmos/gaia/blob/main/docs/roadmap/cosmos-hub-roadmap-2.0.md). -## Roadmap + +

+
+ + +### πŸ—„οΈ β€” Archives & Genesis +___ With each version of the Cosmos Hub, the chain is restarted from a new Genesis state. Mainnet is currently running as `cosmoshub-4`. Archives of the state of `cosmoshub-1`, `cosmoshub-2`, and `cosmoshub-3` are available [here](./docs/resources/archives.md). If you are looking for historical genesis files and other data [`cosmos/mainnet`](http://github.com/cosmos/mainnet) is an excellent resource. Snapshots are also available at [cosmos.quicksync.io](https://cosmos.quicksync.io). -## Contributing + +
