The Cosmos network consists of many independent, parallel blockchains, called zones, each powered by classical Byzantine fault-tolerant (BFT) consensus protocols like Tendermint. Some zones act as hubs with respect to other zones, allowing many zones to interoperate through a shared hub. The architecture uses classic BFT and Proof-of-Stake algorithms, instead of Proof-of-Work. Cosmos can interoperate with multiple other applications and cryptocurrencies, something other blockchains can’t do well. By creating a new zone, you can plug any blockchain system into the Cosmos hub and pass tokens back and forth between those zones, without the need for an intermediary.  While the Cosmos Hub is a multi-asset distributed ledger, there is a special native token called the atom. ATOM have three use cases: as a spam-prevention mechanism, as staking tokens, and as a voting mechanism in governance.  As a spam prevention mechanism, ATOM are used to pay fees. The fee may be proportional to the amount of computation required by the transaction, similar to Ethereum’s concept of “gas”. Fee distribution is done in-protocol and a protocol specification is described here.  As staking tokens, ATOM can be “bonded” in order to earn block rewards. The economic security of the Cosmos Hub is a function of the amount of ATOM staked. The more ATOM that are collateralized, the more “skin” there is at stake and the higher the cost of attacking the network. Thus, the more ATOM there are bonded, the greater the economic security of the network.  Atom holders may govern the Cosmos Hub by voting on proposals with their staked ATOM.

Cosmos

Cosmos (ATOM) is a trending topic amidst active community discussions surrounding its high staking APY and ongoing tokenomic redesigns aimed at boosting value accrual within its "Internet of Blockchains" ecosystem.

Bill Ackman Says His $300 Billion Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac Plan Remains The Best Idea For 2026

Ackman had earlier said that the emergence of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac from conservatorship would generate “more than $300 billion” in additional profit to the Federal government.

 Meet Kenny Smith: The New CEO Leading Freddie Mac Toward A High-Stakes IPO

Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae have been in the spotlight throughout the year for several reasons, beginning with the departure of former CEO Diana Reid as William Pulte took charge of U.S. Federal Housing.

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>Fannie Mae was established in 1938 to enhance mortgage lending in response to the Great Depression.</li><li>Freddie Mac was created in 1970 to broaden the secondary mortgage market and encourage competition.</li><li>They’re still controlled by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), even as Washington debates what their future should look like.</li></ul>Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are the two major government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) that help keep the U.S. mortgage market running. They guarantee most of the country’s home loans and play a big part in making mortgages easier and cheaper to obtain.For decades, they operated as private, shareholder-owned companies under federal oversight. However, the situation changed during the 2008 financial crisis, when both were placed into government conservatorship. They’re still controlled by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), even as Washington debates what their future should look like.Those discussions resurfaced recently after former President Donald Trump said he is giving “very serious consideration” to taking the companies public again.<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Do They Work?</h2>The core job of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is to buy mortgages from lenders such as banks, mortgage companies, and credit unions. They either keep those loans or bundle them into mortgage-backed securities (MBS) that investors can buy. When lenders sell mortgages to the GSEs, they get cash back, which they can use to make new loans.This recycling of capital helps keep mortgage funding flowing and supports the widespread availability of the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage, a product not commonly found in many other countries.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Key Differences Between Fannie Mae And Freddie Mac</h2>Though their missions are similar, the two were established at different times and with subtle market differences. Fannie Mae was created in 1938 to enhance mortgage lending during the Great Depression. Freddie Mac followed in 1970 to broaden the secondary market and increase competition.Historically, Fannie Mae has worked more with large commercial banks, while Freddie Mac has sourced more loans from smaller regional banks and credit unions. Fannie's portfolio tends to focus more on single-family homes, whereas Freddie has a more extended history of buying loans tied to multi-unit properties. Regardless of the difference, only loans that meet strict GSE standards, known as conforming loans, qualify for their guarantee.<h2 class="st-heading-2">What Is Implicit Guarantee?</h2>For years, investors assumed that if Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac ever ran into trouble, the U.S. government would step in. That unspoken belief, known as the “implicit guarantee,” proved true in 2008 when the Treasury provided about $190 billion to rescue both firms. They paid back those funds by 2014, but they remain under conservatorship, with strict oversight of their capital and dividends.How and when the GSEs might leave government control remain open questions. Trump’s recent comments about potentially taking them public again have pushed the issue back into the spotlight, raising fresh debate about how much risk the private market should bear and what role Washington should play in supporting the mortgage system.Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/what-is-purchasing-manager-s-index/cLIrUN7REZr">What Is Purchasing Manager’s Index?</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Its adjusted revenue of $1.78 billion also topped estimates of $1.65 billion.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Mortgage Demand Showing Signs Of Improvement</h2>The company said Rocket Mortgage generated $35.8 billion in net rate lock volume, a 20% increase from a year earlier. A rate lock denotes a fixed mortgage rate agreed upon between the lender and borrower. The company's sold loan volume in the direct-to-consumer segment rose to $17.14 billion during the quarter, up from $14 billion a year earlier.“Affordability is slowly improving as rates ease. In the third quarter, the 30-year fixed rate dropped by 40 basis points to 6.3%, giving those buying and refinancing some much-needed rate relief,” said CEO Varun Krishna in a call with analysts, before adding that the rate of increase in home prices has also slowed.The U.S. Federal Reserve has lowered its benchmark interest rate by 50 basis points for two consecutive months. Mortgage rates typically decline following such moves. However, Fed Chair Jerome Powell warned this week that another rate cut in December is not guaranteed.Krishna flagged that existing home sales continue to hover around 4 million units, putting 2025 on track to be the slowest year for existing home sales since 1995. “Buyers are watching the market closely, they're waiting for clear signals and increased affordability before making their move,” he added.

Investing.com -- Shares of mortgage finance giants  Fannie Mae  (OTC:FNMA) and  Freddie Mac  (OTC:FMCC) fell 7% in Friday trading after Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Director Bill Pulte indicated the companies would likely remain in conservatorship.

What’s next for Fannie and Freddie under Trump administration?

Investing.com -- Bank of America analysts say President Trump’s recent remarks about  Fannie Mae  (OTC:FNMA) and  Freddie Mac  (OTC:FMCC) signal a shift in housing policy direction under a potential second term, but near-term reform remains unlikely. 

Freddie Mac (FMCC) and Fannie Mae (FNMA) stocks drew bullish chatter on Wednesday after President Donald Trump said that the U.S. would continue to retain guarantees and its oversight role in the mortgage firms.Trump’s assurance comes amid his efforts to make the mortgage giants public, a longstanding demand of hedge funds and shareholders."I am working on TAKING THESE AMAZING COMPANIES PUBLIC, but I want to be clear, the U.S. Government will keep its implicit GUARANTEES, and I will stay strong in my position on overseeing them as President," Trump said in a Truth Social post.Last week, he stated that he was giving the process “very serious consideration” and would consult with senior members of his cabinet before making a decision.Fannie and Freddie buy mortgages from lenders and either hold these mortgages in their portfolios or package the loans into mortgage-backed securities, with a guarantee of protection from the government regarding any losses.The federal government took control of these now-profitable companies after the 2008 financial crisis.Trump allies and other Republicans believe that privatizing the two companies could boost the government’s coffers at a time when the federal debt has surged past $36 trillion.However, analysts said privatization efforts must be carefully crafted to mitigate the risks of increasing mortgage prices.According to The Fly, Keefe Bruyette analyst Bose George states that there remain "meaningful hurdles" to the privatization efforts. Still, the implicit guarantee would be a meaningful step towards making the reform work.However, the brokerage continues to believe that the stock would have a significant dilution risk if the government-sponsored entities were to be privatized.Retail sentiment on Stocktwits about both stocks was ‘extremely bullish’, while retail chatter was ‘extremely high.’“WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD SELL??” one retail trader wondered.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/Lboog27/message/616001833</stembedurl>Another retail trader suggested that both stocks could double soon.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/p3p51111/message/615986370</stembedurl><a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/FMCC">Freddie Mac</a> and <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/FNMA">Fannie Mae</a> have both more than doubled year-to-date (YTD).Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/rocket-lab-enters-satellite-payloads-market-with-275-m-deal-amid-trump-s-golden-dome-push-retail-s-elated/ch0oQVtRbs2">Rocket Lab Enters Satellite Payloads Market With $275M Deal Amid Trump’s Golden Dome Push: Retail’s Elated</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
