For more info, see the linked posts, and contact @RoboMcGobo on telegram to submit news for the weekly. This week: the Hub liquidity layer, a full quarter of tokenomics data, and Hydro comes to the Hub. • Yesterday’s validator call put the Hub liquidity layer in focus: two of the designs we are exploring, the commitments that hold for any of them, plus delegation program deadlines and ATOM landing on Robinhood • The tokenomics research now covers a full quarter of on-chain data , and the question shifts from how much selling to who is selling ( this week’s thread ) • Hydro is migrating to the Cosmos Hub , with Inflow vaults expected by the end of June and auctions to follow.

Thanks for the recap.

Hey @Guinch_Roze we can, but at least right now there aren’t any plans to remove wasm from the Hub if EVM is added.

There are too many protocols and infra pieces that rely on wasm today (Stargaze, DAODAO, much of skip:go and the Eureka security council, etc).

So even in the event we do add EVM, that doesn’t mean wasm goes away.
