Its market cap — supply times price — is $788.2M, the 78-largest in crypto. Over a year it is -69% (down), and it sits -97% from its all-time high. Total value locked on this chain is $128,372 — negligible against market cap, which simply means TVL is not what this asset is for. On tradability, the book is thin, so incoming money moves the price easily. Taken together, the overall heat score is 32 (COOL). A higher number means more of the conditions for a rally are in place — it is not a price forecast. Last updated 2026-08-14 · Price $1.5 (as of 2026-08-14) Heat score: **32** (COOL) — a deterministic 0–100 read on how many of the conditions for a move are in place. Not a price forecast. ## Market data (as of 2026-08-14) | Metric | Value | | --- | --- | | Price | $1.5 | | Market cap | $788.2M (rank #78) | | 24h volume | $37.7M | | Circulating supply | 524,873,982 ATOM (about 100% of total supply) | | Total supply | 524,882,420 ATOM | | Change from all-time high | -96.6% | | Chain fees (24h) | $1,747 | ## What is Cosmos Hub The Cosmos network consists of many independent, parallel blockchains, called zones, each powered by classical Byzantine fault-tolerant (BFT) consensus protocols like Tendermint. Some zones act as hubs with respect to other zones, allowing many zones to interoperate through a shared hub. The architecture uses classic BFT and Proof-of-Stake algorithms, instead of Proof-of-Work. Cosmos can interoperate with multiple other applications and cryptocurrencies, something other blockchains can’t do well. By creating a new zone, you can plug any blockchain system into the Cosmos hub and pass tokens back and forth between those zones, without the need for an intermediary. While the Cosmos Hub is a multi-asset distributed ledger, there is a special native token called the atom. ATOM have three use cases: as a spam-prevention mechanism, as staking tokens, and as a voting mechanism in governance. As a spam prevention mechanism, ATOM are used to pay fees. The fee may be proportional to the amount of computation required by the transaction, similar to Ethereum’s concept of “gas”. Fee distribution is done in-protocol and a protocol specification is described here. As staking tokens, ATOM can be “bonded” in order to earn block rewards. The economic security of the Cosmos Hub is a function of the amount of ATOM staked. The more ATOM that are collateralized, the more “skin” there is at stake and the higher the cost of attacking the network. Thus, the more ATOM there are bonded, the greater the economic security of the network. ## Frequently asked questions ### What is Cosmos Hub (ATOM)?
