Cosmos DeFi Panel
summary
Proposal ion 3.0 outlines an Interchange basket (ticker IBC) as a cap‑weighted Cosmos index plus an IOU IBC-backed stablecoin using that index as collateral, aiming to reduce volatility risk for lending. Key blockers are poor local IBC/ICA testing, lack of multi-atomic multi-hop IBC routing for atomic cross‑chain moves, and fragile liquidity for many staking derivatives. Concrete fixes discussed: Osmo outpost routing to hide hops, IBC middleware (rate limits, metadata), exporting Osmosis price oracles over IBC, and composite stable‑swap pools to reduce fragmentation.
