In this tutorial, you will learn how to add GnoVM (Gno Virtual Machine) support to your Cosmos SDK blockchain using Ignite CLI. Ignite has developed a Cosmos SDK module that integrates with the GnoVM and created an Ignite App to simplify its usage. Today, in October 2025, this Cosmos SDK module is still heavily in development and still its alpha phase. In short, Gno is an open source smart contract language based on the Go syntax.
Integrate the EVM in a Cosmos SDK chain with Ignite
In this tutorial, you will learn how to add EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) support to your Cosmos SDK blockchain using Ignite CLI. Ignite CLI offers a variety of Ignite Apps that simplify development. One of them is the Ignite EVM App, which streamlines the integration of Ethereum compatibility into your Cosmos SDK chain.
Build POA Entreprise Blockchains With Ignite
In this tutorial, you'll learn how to wire a Proof of Authority (POA) module for your blockchain using the Ignite CLI. POA is a consensus mechanism designed for private and enterprise blockchains, where only pre-approved validators are allowed to produce blocks. This makes it ideal for organizations that prioritize speed, control, and privacy over decentralization.
This tutorial will cover how to create a new ICS consumer chain using Ignite CLI. In the chapters afterwards, you can learn how to create your own provider chain and connect both to create your own full development environment. Before proceeding, ensure you meet the following requirements: Go: Make sure you have Go installed on your machine. You can install it here. Ignite CLI: The Makefile handles the installation, but if you'd like to install it manually, visit the Ignite CLI Installation Guide.
Spotlight: Consensus Mechanisms
Consensus Mechanisms in Cosmos and Blockchain Development In the realm of blockchain technology, consensus mechanisms play a pivotal role in ensuring the integrity and security of the distributed ledger. These mechanisms govern how nodes on a blockchain reach agreement on the state of the network, preventing double-spending and ensuring the immutability of transactions. The Cosmos ecosystem, a set of interoperable blockchains, utilizes Tendermint BFT as its default consensus mechanism.
Welcome to the exciting world of blockchain development with Ignite CLI. In this introductory guide, we'll focus on two powerful commands that will set you on the path to creating your very own application-specific blockchain: ignite scaffold chain example and ignite chain serve. These CLI commands are the building blocks that will transform your ideas into a living, breathing blockchain network. Step 1: Create Your Blockchain To create a blockchain, we begin with scaffolding.
Tutorial: Governance Module - Creating and Managing Proposals
In this tutorial, we will walk through the process of creating and managing proposals using the Governance module in a Cosmos SDK-based blockchain. Governance is a critical feature for decentralised networks, allowing stakeholders to make decisions collectively. Prerequisites Before we begin, ensure you have the following: Ignite CLI installed: Instructions can be found here. Basic knowledge of Go: Familiarity with Go programming will be helpful.
Guide to use the Migration tool. From one Ignite/CosmosSDK version to any other.
Welcome to this tutorial on using the gen-mig-diffs tool, a resource for Ignite developers aiming to track and manage changes in scaffolded chains between different versions of Ignite CLI. This guide will walk you through the process of setting up and using the tool, as well as offer an alternative migration strategy.
Storage and Fees with the Cosmos SDK and Ignite CLI
How transactions are handled or stored on a Cosmos SDK blockchain has the biggest impact on the size of your blockchain. Blockchain bloat, spam, transaction validation and data availability are important points for any blockchain. In this tutorial you will be learning how to mitigate spam or address blockchain bloat. How data availability works in the Cosmos SDK ecosystem and how to configure your node.
Understanding Denoms in Cosmos SDK and Ignite Denom stands for denomination and represents the name of a token within the Cosmos SDK and Ignite. In the Cosmos ecosystem, denoms play a crucial role in identifying and managing tokens. In Ignite, the configuration of your blockchain, including the specification of denoms, is set in the config.yml file within your blockchain directory. This file allows the definition of various denoms before initializing your blockchain.
