Zaki: I was helping a little bit on the Stargate side, but not yeah, it wasn't really my main focus. What happened was you probably heard about what we like to call GORE 2020, which is the Cosmos ecosystems. A lot of people sort of left the Tendermint company and started working on other,. like creating new companies to contribute back to Cosmos. And so that's sort of how Osmosis came about where we sort of merged with a company called Chinapsis. They built the Kepler wallet, which is like the most popular wallet of the Cosmos ecosystem.
This week, Anna and Tarun chat with Sunny Aggarwal and Dev Ojha about their new project Osmosis, an AMM built into the Cosmos ecosystem using the IBC interoperability protocol.
Osmosis brings some interesting innovations to the AMM table, starting from the seamless IBC integration to customizable bonding curves and per-pool governance to promote experimentation. Sunny and Dev are also very passionate about the topic of MEV, diving into the various types of value extraction, how MEV is mitigated on other networks and how it could be largely eliminated on Osmosis through threshold cryptography.
