We’re thrilled to announce $5M in seed funding for [Cosmology](https://cosmology.zone), the tech suite that enables developers to build Web3 apps in the Cosmos ecosystem. Galileo and Lemniscap co-led the round with participation from Dispersion, Hashkey, Tuesday Capital, the Osmosis Foundation, Chorus One, Informal Systems, and angels including Kevin Lin, Zaki Manian, Leland Lee, Greg Osuri, and Ethan Beard. [As an official part of the Interchain Stack](https://medium.com/the-interchain-foundation/meet-the-teams-cosmology-tooling-for-interchain-development-4aa2589b8bba), Cosmology empowers over 2,000 developers to build applications like dYdX, Osmosis, and Celestia. This funding allows us to support the growth of the interchain, and provide tools that make app development accessible without requiring deep technical blockchain knowledge.

Our mission is to empower a broad range of developers, driving innovation and the shift from Web2 to Web3. We achieve this by lowering the barriers for builders to swiftly turn their ideas into launched applications, focusing on big-picture concepts rather than the low-level technical details of blockchain.

Cosmology’s tools make the development of Web3 applications dramatically simpler for developers throughout the interchain and have been [downloaded over 5 million times](https://github.com/hyperweb-io/lib-count). We’ve created tools like [Telescope](https://hyperweb.io/stack/telescope), which generates easy-to-use TypeScript libraries for developers to access the functionality of Cosmos blockchains, and [Cosmos Kit](https://hyperweb.io/stack/cosmos-kit), a universal wallet adapter for quickly making apps that easily interact with Cosmos blockchains and wallets.

Initially focused on front-end tools, we’re now broadening our scope of services to offer a comprehensive full-stack environment for developers. The team now includes experts in key blockchain technologies like Tendermint, Cosmos SDK, and IBC Protocol, enhancing our suite's capabilities across the board. This expansion is giving Cosmology extra bandwidth to support developers from design to deployment, covering everything from user interface design all the way to blockchain and smart contract tooling.

Cosmology serves as the bedrock underlying applications being built across the Cosmos and Celestia ecosystems. Our tools materially reduce the complexities for developers, allowing for much quicker innovation and iteration cycles. In the early days of the internet, the concept of every business having its own website once seemed like a pipe dream. Today, we're at a similar point in time before the brink of a revolution with the Internet of Blockchains. Much like low and no-code platforms transformed Web2, making digital participation accessible to all businesses, we see a future where Web3 is equally open and user-friendly.

As Cosmos becomes an increasingly interwoven mesh of blockchains, Cosmology is at the forefront of enabling developers to build interchain-native applications. This raise helps us further build out our Adobe-style suite of products that’s making Cosmos one of the most attractive places to build in Web3 today.

### About Cosmology

[Cosmology](https://cosmology.zone) is creating the Adobe of Web3 - a suite of products that work interdependently to catalyze creativity for builders.

Cosmology is building a unified developer experience for cross chain dApps, streamlining everything from low-level encoding and signing to user interfaces and wallet adapters. Our tools [are the standard in the interchain](https://hyperweb.io/blog/01-29-2024-meet-the-teams), where our community has now grown to 100+ chains and countless smart contract projects across the Cosmos ecosystem.

Hundreds of developers leverage Cosmology’s software to build DEXes, wallets, governance tooling, NFT platforms, lending, leverage, and liquid staking protocols. These include Osmosis, dYdX, Celestia, Cosmostation, Stride, Juno, DaoDao, Stargaze, Mars Protocol, Leap Wallet, AstroTech, Persistence, Quicksilver and more.


Cosmology raises $5M in seed funding to empower Web3 development in the Cosmos ecosystem, simplifying the transition for Web2 developers to Web3. Backed by leaders like Galileo and Lemniscap, Cosmology's suite, featuring Telescope and Cosmos Kit, accelerates app development for over 2,000 developers.
