3 причины, по которым цена Cosmos (ATOM) находится вблизи нового исторического максимума
Blockchain network interoperability is shaping up to be one of the main themes for the cryptocurrency ecosystem in 2022. New users are continuing to onboard into the growing world of crypto while both new and established projects search for the chain that will best serve the needs of their protocol and community.
One project that has 2022 off to a bullish start thanks to its focus on facilitating the communication between separate networks is Cosmos (ATOM). This project bills itself as “the internet of blockchains” and seeks to facilitate the development of an interconnected decentralized economy.
Data from our site Markets Pro and TradingView shows that since hitting a low of $25.06 on Dec. 30, the price of ATOM has rallied 75% to hit a daily high at $43.98 on Jan. 4 as its 24-hour trading volume spiked to $2.54 billion.

Three reasons for the surging price of ATOM include the launch of a cross-chain bridge which makes the protocol Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible and an upcoming Theta upgrade which will rapidly expand the ecosystem of connected chains and applications.
Cosmos nears EVM compatibility
The most significant development that has provided a boost to ATOM is the rollout of Evmos, an EVM-compatible protocol that will allows assets and projects that operate on the Ethereum (ETH) network to migrate over to the Cosmos ecosystem.

Up to this point, there had not been a way for Ethereum-based projects to interact with the Cosmos ecosystem. This significantly limited the number of projects and tokens that could interact with DeFi and NFT projects in the Cosmos ecosystem.
Gravity Bridge, which launched on Dec. 15, is another project dedicated to facilitating the bridging of assets between Ethereum and Cosmos and currently it operates as a standalone chain. Plans to migrate to the Cosmos Hub in early 2022 are currently underway.
Preparing for the Theta upgrade
Вторым событием, вдохнувшим ветер в паруса Cosmos, является предстоящее обновление протокола Theta, которое запланировано на 31 марта.
Some of the new features included in the upgrade include the addition of meta-transactions, where transactions can be submitted by separate accounts that receive tips and the introduction of inter-chain accounts which allow users to manage accounts across multiple blockchains. Another feature is liquid staking, a system where users utilize the value of staked assets in other parts of the Cosmos ecosystem.
The Theta upgrade also includes NFT modules, which enable the simple management of NFT identifiers, their owners and associated data.

Expanding ecosystems are typically bullish
A third reason for the bullish momentum of ATOM is ecosystem’s expansion to 28 live, interconnected chains that total more than $68 billion in total value.

Some of the more established chains that have joined the Cosmos ecosystem include the Binance Smart Chain, Terra (LUNA) and Crypto.com (CRO), while the biggest projects using Cosmos’ software development kit (SDK) include Osmosis (OSMO), Secret (SCRT), Oasis Network (ROSE) and Kava (KAVA).
По мере создания мостовых протоколов, связывающих Cosmos с другими EVM-совместимыми сетями, количество цепей, подключенных к концентратору Cosmos, скорее всего, увеличится. Это приведет к увеличению общей стоимости экосистемы.
