Blockchains are secured through the economic incentives offered to their validators/miners. The more robust the network effect among validators, the more difficult it is for that blockchain to be compromised. However, building a truly decentralised and reliable validator set is not a trivial task. As a result, hub and spoke ecosystem designs like Cosmos’ (and even Polkadot’s), aim to share the main hub’s validator set and security to their ‘consumer’ chains (parachains in Polkadot’s case). Neutron relies on interchain queries, interchain accounts and interchain (replicated) security to deliver the most secure CosmWasm smart contract platform in the Cosmos ecosystem.

We were joined by Avril Dutheil, GM at Neutron, to discuss Neutron’s smart contract platform and how it leverages replicated security (ICS) and interchain accounts (ICA).

Topics covered in this episode:

Avril’s background and the value prop behind Neutron
Practical examples
Interchain accounts and different use cases
Interchain security
Atom hub vs. Polkadot relay chain. Onboarding and security models
Offboarding Cosmos consumer chains
Replicated security vs. Modular blockchains
Neutron’s token utility and governance
