Description

Cosmos is an interconnection of several blockchains (zones) and we want to connect Harmony to a zone in cosmos such that Harmony assets can move around to any connected cosmos zone via IBC (inter blockchain communication).

Context

Building Harmony<>Cosmos bridge requires developing several components such as:

Harmony node (which is like ethereum's geth), an Ethereum based blockchain with FBFT consensus that captures Harmony blocks
A simple relayers (written in JS or rust) to propagate the block header information to Harmony light client on cosmos chain. The existing IBC relayers can be extended to subscribe to ethereum events and handle requests.
A Tendermint light client written in solidity that can be deployed on Harmony to validate cosmos consensus and IBC headers. An example was built in https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/yui-ibc-solidity which could handle core IBC and ICS20 (crosschain fungible token transfers). Refer to https://github.com/cosmos/ibc-go/pull/208 and https://github.com/cosmos/ibc/pull/571. Chorus One is actively working on this, and are expecting to have a functional PoC very soon.
A Harmony light client, written in either solidity (as evm contract) or rust (as wasm contract, e.g., https://github.com/ChorusOne/celo-light-client), to be deployed to either ethermint zone (ethermint is going live in September 2021), or wasm-based zones like terra (permissioned and required governance to approve) or Junochain (https://junochain.com) which is permissionless and does not require governance approval. It is important to find out if all required bls signature schemes exists if deploying on ethermint. For wasm-based zones, there already exists libraries https://docs.rs/bls12_381/0.5.0/bls12_381/ which can be sufficient. Also, note that as part of trustless horizon ethereum bridge Harmony is going to introduce a MMR (Merkle Mountain Range) scheme for optimizing Harmony light client. If needed the Harmony light client to be deployed on cosmos zone (ethermint or Juno) could adopt it.

Acceptance Criteria

[ ] Implementation of all the aforementioned modules with unit tests
[ ] Successful deployment of the bridge on both testnet and mainnet along with modularized components and test scripts for reuse.
[ ] Required frontends (could be minimal) for bridge usage by users, relayers, and some statistics dashboards.

Required skills

Solidity programming
Rust
Frontend JS/React
Understanding of Harmony blockchain and its internals
Understanding of Cosmos blockchain and its internals
