Cosmos Unchained - Ethereum Pegging Showdown

SPEAKERS 1. Chjango Unchained - Ecosystem Developer at Tendermint Inc. 2. Greg Markou - CTO at Chainsafe Systems 3. Justin Kilpatrick - Co-founder and CTO of Althea Network 4. Christopher Goes - Researcher for @cosmos at Interchain GmbH

DESCRIPTION In this live meetup join Chjango Unchained (Cosmos), Greg Markou (ChainBridge), Justin Kilpatrick (Peggy), and Christopher Goes (IBC) to discuss the design differences between IBC, Peggy, and ChainBridge and how each project approaches the problem of interoperating with the Ethereum mainchain.

IBC is a reliable & secure inter-module communication protocol, where modules are deterministic processes that run on independent distributed ledgers (also referred to as blockchains). IBC can be used by any application which builds on top of reliable & secure interchain communication. Example applications include cross-chain asset transfer, atomic swaps, multi-chain smart contracts (with or without mutually comprehensible VMs), and data & code sharding of various kinds.

Peggy is a Cosmos - Ethereum bridge made up of an Ethereum contract, which stores the full validator state and a Cosmos module run by the validators to produce updates and send
