Neutron chain
Overview
Neutron is a blockchain in the Cosmos ecosystem that enables smart contracts using CosmWasm. It is designed for cross-chain interoperability via IBC and serves as a platform for decentralized applications and DeFi protocols. The chain leverages interchain security from the Cosmos Hub.
Within the DeFi Intel graph, Neutron connects to 2 tracked entities, most strongly to Cosmos SDK, Cosmos Hub.

Frequently asked questions
What is Neutron?
Neutron is a CosmWasm-enabled smart contract platform built on the Cosmos SDK, functioning as a consumer chain secured by the Cosmos Hub.
What is CosmWasm?
CosmWasm is a smart contract platform that uses WebAssembly as its execution engine, allowing developers to write multi-chain smart contracts in Rust.
How does Neutron achieve interoperability?
Neutron uses IBC (Inter-Blockchain Communication) to facilitate asset transfers, data sharing, and cross-chain contract calls with other IBC-compatible chains.
What is Neutron connected to?
In the DeFi Intel knowledge graph, Neutron is linked to 2 other tracked entities, most strongly to Cosmos SDK, Cosmos Hub.
