Verdict

Cosmos Hub

ATOM — Governance Rights Report
Tier 2 S1 — Token-Governed Protocol Assessment as of 2026-10-01
GSA-1 pass GSA-2 near-miss GSA-3 fail GSA-4 fail GSA-5 near-miss GSA-6 fail GSA-7 fail GSA-8 fail

Why this rating: On-chain staker governance (ATOM stakers vote on proposals, including community-pool spends) with no multisig gate — solid procedural rights. But the community pool is funded by inflation/tax, not protocol revenue routed to ATOM, so there is no economic right. Prop 1007 (2025) enabled permissionless CosmWasm; ATOM Alignment Treasury development approved Jul 2025. GSA-1 pass: ATOM stakers control community-pool spends via on-chain governance; GSA-3 fail: no revenue distribution to ATOM; community pool funded by inflation tax

Metrics

Curated metric — next quarterly update. On-chain revenue, treasury, and distribution-enforcement reads are not yet wired for this DAO's space in the Institute's state files; the quarterly re-assessment cycle will populate this block.
