Nuklai, an AI-first Layer 1 blockchain, is making the transition from Avalanche’s HyperSDK to the Cosmos ecosystem. This decision comes as Nuklai expands its vision, requiring a more stable and modular framework to support complex data functionality and long-term scalability.

Initially, Nuklai chose HyperSDK for its high throughput and minimal state storage. However, as the project evolved, the need for a more flexible infrastructure became clear. Cosmos provides production-ready modules, a well-established developer ecosystem, and a predictable roadmap, making it a better fit for Nuklai’s growing ambitions.

What Cosmos Offers Nuklai

By migrating to Cosmos, Nuklai gains access to:

  • A Proven Modular Framework – Cosmos SDK provides stable, production-tested modules that reduce development overhead.


  • Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) – Native interoperability allows Nuklai to connect seamlessly with other blockchains in the Cosmos ecosystem.


  • A Strong Developer Community – Access to extensive documentation, open-source tooling, and active support.


  • Predictable Development Timelines – A well-defined upgrade process minimizes disruptions and accelerates the launch of new features.

What’s Next for Nuklai?

With the transition to Cosmos, Nuklai is aligning its development roadmap with a more predictable infrastructure. The team has already built a proof-of-concept on Cosmos and is targeting:

  • Q1 2025 – Testnet launch

  • Q2 2025 – Mainnet release

While shifting ecosystems is a significant step, much of the work done on HyperSDK carries over, accelerating Nuklai’s time to market.

A Strategic Move for Long-Term Growth

By leveraging Cosmos, Nuklai avoids the need to reinvent core blockchain infrastructure, allowing the team to focus on refining its AI-driven data capabilities. The move ensures a more stable foundation for future developments, positioning Nuklai for long-term success - assuming all else goes well.
