Alessio Treglia e2da4caae4 Merge PR #2364: Implement HTTPS for the LCD REST server 
In order to guarantee a secure connection between apps and the LCD the
communication must be encrypted - even if clients and server run on the
same local machine, credentials must never be transmitted in clear text.

Upon start up, the server generates a self-signed certificate and a key.
Both are stored as temporary files; removal is guaranteed on exit.

This new behaviour is now enabled by default, though users are provided
with a --insecure flag to switch it off.

Welcome to the Cosmos Docs!

cosmonaut reading the cosmos docs in space

Cosmos is a decentralized network of independent parallel blockchains, each powered by classical BFT consensus algorithms like Tendermint.

The first blockchain in the Cosmos Network is the Cosmos Hub, whose native token is the Atom. Cosmos is a permission-less network, meaning that anybody can build a blockchain on it.

Cosmos can interoperate with multiple other applications and cryptocurrencies. 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.
