This article compares two cryptocurrencies from the top 50 list of cryptos ranked by market cap. These coins are Cosmos (ATOM) and Tezos (XTZ). Both of them emerged after the crypto market decline that took place in early 2018 and managed to quickly gain a strong presence among the leaders of the industry. Both networks are based on a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism. Tezos and Cosmos are focused on providing users with a scalable blockchain-based network to solve the well-known issues of Bitcoin and Ethereum. Let's see which of the coins seems to be a worthier investment.
Cosmos (ATOM) is a native token of the Cosmos Hubs blockchain network. The latter aims to build a decentralized ecosystem hosting smart contracts, services, apps, etc. Unlike Ethereum, which has similar functionality, Cosmos was created with scalability and eco-friendliness in mind, so instead of PoW, it relies on PoS. The Cosmos Hubs platform is designed to be faster and cheaper than Ethereum. The fee is $0.01, and the transaction time is 7 seconds.
One can use Cosmos to build financial applications, in-game tokens, and entire online organizations holding digital assets on-chain. More than that, Cosmos offers a number of services. First off, Cosmos has a native decentralized crypto exchange. Another service is called Custodian. It can be used for crypto coins storage and management of accounts associated with different blockchains. One more service is called Router. It provides IBC connections that bridge different blockchains.
Cosmos was conceived in 2014, although at that moment, it was a bit different project with a different name. In 2016, the platform team released a Cosmos whitepaper. The current CEO of Cosmos is Peng Zhong. As of July 19, 2022, the ATOM price is over $10. The market cap is nearly $3 billion, which makes it the 28th most significant market cap in the industry.
Tezos (XTZ) is a native token of the blockchain network of the same name. The Tezos blockchain serves for creating and running smart contracts, decentralized apps, financial operations, etc. In many aspects, Tezos resembles Ethereum. However, the former is designed to avoid the issues of the latter. Scalability, expensive transactions, and operational speed are well-known issues of Ethereum. More than that, Tezos has a structure that can be easily changed and improved without the need to go through a hard fork process. Instead, Tezos relies on self-amendment, which is more seamless and cheaper than hard forks.
The special staking (validating) process on Tezos is called "baking." Baking incentivizes the Tezos users to participate in blockchain governance in exchange for rewards. The platform is secured with a Proof-of-stake mechanism.
The project was initiated in 2014. It took several years to launch Tezos. The XTZ tokens hit the market in 2018. As of July 19, 2022, the XTZ price is nearly $1.7 while the market cap exceeds $1.5 billion making the coin the 41st biggest crypto by market cap.

The price and the market cap
Both coins became available for traders at about the same time. ATOM has nearly twice as much market cap as Tezos and a significantly higher price. We can conclude that by this measure, ATOM is superior to Tezos.
Popular markets
Tezos and ATOM are traded on the same exchanges. Both coins have little traction on Kraken and are mostly traded on Binance and Coinbase. KuCoin is also an important exchange for both brands. In general, we can't say that any of these coins have an advantage in terms of availability on exchanges.
Platform
Both networks are based on custom branded blockchains. It makes these platforms equally independent.
Consensus mechanism
Both platforms utilize the PoS consensus mechanism. It is eco-friendly and quite popular, although some people criticize PoS for several reasons. Tezos has a somewhat unique approach to PoS, incorporating the baking concept. It can turn some newbies away as it sounds unfamiliar. On the other hand, some might find baking a more convenient process than regular staking. So we can't say that any of these coins is a better choice by this parameter. It depends.
Products
Cosmos has already created several products (Custodian, Router, etc.) while Tezos is slightly behind. On the other hand, dozens of products are built on top of Tezos. These projects are diverse, and in many aspects, they are closely associated with the Tezos platform, baking, and so on. Still, we should admit that the Cosmos team seems to be more prolific.
Use cases
Use cases of Cosmos and Tezos are pretty similar. Cosmos has the unique function of bridging different blockchains. Tezos is not busy doing something like that. However, Tezos is a partner of the French bank called Societe Generale, which is a decent use case for any cryptocurrency platform. We can't say that one of these use cases is more important than the other. Both platforms are solid projects, and they are undoubtedly among the leaders for a reason.

Cosmos是连接不同分布式分类帐的网络。这意味着Cosmos有助于处理区块链间的运营。 Cosmos使用的共识算法是权益证明。当前,Cosmos生态系统的验证者正在形成一个区块链间通信(IBC)协议。 Cosmos系统的本机令牌是ATOM。
|
Tezos是一个智能合约平台,具有自己的区块链和本机令牌(Tezos,XTZ)。治理通过权益证明算法执行。这意味着利益相关者(拥有至少10,000 XTZ的利益相关者)对协议的变更投了赞成票。这些验证者(“面包师”)会因执行验证而获得奖励。奖励是通过通货膨胀产生的。那些将XTZ授权给面包师的人也可以赚钱。 Tezos具有内置的“自我修正”机制,可以在不制作叉子的情况下塑造网络。它使社区保持团结,并使开发过程更容易。

Both coins are doing well and represent ambitious and robust ecosystems. It seems that Cosmos is developing faster than Tezos, both market- and platform-wise. However, Tezos has several unique traits, so Cosmos can't be a 100% replacement for Tezos. Both projects are suitable for their own reasons. Now, as you know more about them, you can decide which of these coins looks like a better investment.
