Cosmostation Wallet Is Shutting Down — Yet Its AtomOne Validator Still Holds ~2.2M $ATONE

Cosmostation, long one of the leading non-custodial wallets in the Cosmos ecosystem (often ranked second by usage), announced on August 14, 2026 that it is discontinuing its wallet services.

Starting September 1, 2026, the iOS app, Android app, and Chrome extension will retain only two functions: exporting recovery phrases and exporting private keys. All other features — staking, governance, asset management, and more — will be phased out. Because Cosmostation is non-custodial, user funds remain on-chain and safe as long as seed phrases or private keys are backed up and imported into another wallet (such as Keplr).

The company thanked users for years of support since its 2018 launch and said it still believes in the long-term future of blockchain and the interchain, though it did not publicly detail the reasons for the full wallet shutdown.

##The lingering AtomOne stake

Separately, Cosmostation had already announced it would stop operating its validator on several networks, including AtomOne ($ATONE), effective July 20, 2026. Despite that, roughly a month later a significant amount of stake remains.

As of mid-August 2026, the Cosmostation validator on AtomOne still has approximately 2.2 million $ATONE delegated to it, involving nearly 3,800 delegators. Those tokens are no longer earning rewards while the validator is offline/jailed.

Delegators who have not yet moved their stake are effectively forgoing yield. Redelegation to an active validator is straightforward on most Cosmos-compatible wallets and does not require unbonding in many cases.

##Bottom line

Cosmostation’s wallet exit removes a major user-facing product from the interchain, following earlier exits such as Leap. Meanwhile, the incomplete migration of its AtomOne stake highlights a common pain point when validators wind down: many users never update their delegations. Anyone still staked with the Cosmostation AtomOne validator should redelegate promptly to resume earning rewards.

Gno.land now connects to Ethereum through gno-ibc, a bridge built on Union’s protocol. Currently, you can send testnet GNOT, ETH, and USDT (ERC-20) between Gno.land Sapphire and Ethereum Sepolia.

The future is IBC.

GnoSwap Beta is live on Gno.land Sapphire, the final testnet ahead of mainnet.

To celebrate, we're launching GnoSwap Sapphire Rush, a $3,000 Community Challenge. We're inviting all community members with various skill sets, by offering 6 different ways to win.

DeFi Power users, high-frequency traders, daily users, and even content creators - everyone has a chance to grab a share of the prize pool.

We're pleased to announce that Sapphire, the latest test network for Gno.land, is live. Sapphire is the next iteration after Topaz, and it is a new chain, not a hardfork. Notice: Sapphire is an experimental test network.

As it was with Topaz, no state carries over from the previous testnet, so balances, realms, and registered names all start at zero. To participate, you’ll have to receive GNOT from the faucet and re-register your names. https://faucet.gno.land/

Topaz will sunset within the next 24 hours.

Dora is an agentic security harness that continually audits the Gno.land codebase and smart contracts. It runs on its own, hunting for vulnerabilities, and it will not report anything it has not already broken in practice.

AI agents are now expected to do more than just answer questions. They need to read live systems, write code, and execute transactions. On a blockchain, however, this can be a real problem. An agent that can sign can also misfire at machine speed. gnomcp solves this for Gno.land
