Unlocking 21M Bitcoins for Cosmos
summary
A protocol publishes Cosmos chain headers onto Bitcoin to create succinct, provable timestamps and claims to remove long‑range attacks while cutting stake unbonding from weeks to one day unbonding; testnet launched in February and the timestamping service already connects to 30+ integrations and passed an Osmosis vote with 99.62% support. A minimum viable BTC‑staking system (explorer + web app) appears after four months, offering trustless, fractionally slashable, delegatable staking without changing Bitcoin.
