It's interesting how many discussion threads overlook chains like Berachain, BNB Chain, and Polygon when talking about Cosmos SDK implementations. These networks adopted the Cosmos SDK but didn't necessarily integrate deeply with the broader Cosmos ecosystem narrative. That gap is worth noting. My hunch is there are quite a few surviving chains quietly running Cosmos SDK under the hood without making a big deal about their technical foundation. The ecosystem story and the tech stack don't always align the way people assume they do.

Ecosystem narratives and tech stacks are indeed often disconnected, and that's what makes it interesting.

ngl this is the truth, many chains are secretly using Cosmos's tech stack but not saying a word

ngl This is a classic case of narrative control; who would voluntarily admit to using someone else's tech stack?

NGL, this is the magic of narratives in the crypto world. Well-crafted ecosystem stories are more valuable than the technology stack itself.

In plain terms, many chains are secretly using Cosmos SDK but pretending to be independently developed. Their marketing narratives and tech stacks don't match at all.

ngl That's why I always feel something's off about the Cosmos narrative... superficially shiny but hollow inside.

In plain terms, this is a typical misalignment between "technology stack" and "ecosystem narrative." Projects like BNB Chain and Polygon that use SDKs but don't rely on Cosmos for their core operations are actually overlooked. An interesting discovery—many times, what we see as the "Cosmos ecosystem" is actually an illusion.
