Since 2020, the most noticeable trend in the crypto space is that Ethereum has been unable to maintain its dominance due to scalability constraints.
Meanwhile, various new public blockchains have continued to emerge. Some of them have already acquired a large volume of usage and hosted a huge amount of crypto assets.
The trend has made more and more people realize that the future of the blockchain world will not be one-chain-fits-all but rather an Internet of Blockchains.

Cosmos and the Internet of Blockchains
When it comes to the topic of the Internet of Blockchains, the contributions of Cosmos and its founders cannot be ignored. In 2015, Jae Kwon and his collaborators created Tendermint , a PoS-based BFT consensus that allows anyone to create a blockchain quickly.
In Cosmos’ blueprint, there is a particular type of blockchain whose function is to link as many blockchains as possible, which is called a “hub.” The Cosmos Hub is the first of its kind. Corresponding with hubs, the specific purpose blockchains are called “zones”.

Hub Minimalism — The Blockchain version of End-to-End Arguments
One is that the code of the hub is simplified, so the security and reliability go higher. The other is that the hub will dedicate its limited capacity to process cross-chain transactions, thereby reducing the cost of cross-chain transactions.
The designers of Cosmos followed the End-to-End Arguments of the Internet architecture design. the function in question can completely and correctly be implemented only with the knowledge and help of the application standing at the endpoints of the communication system.
Hub Minimalism is the design philosophy of the Cosmos Network.

Ethereum — The De Facto Hub of the Blockchain Internet
Take a look at the real-world blockchain interconnection topology, and you can easily find that Ethereum is at the center of the Hub-and-Spoke network, with bridges connecting all important blockchains.
The motivation for doing that is not because Ethereum is minimal, but precisely because Ethereum is maximized and accommodates the most application layer protocols and the largest volume of crypto assets. This makes Ethereum “the de facto hub ” of the blockchain Internet — a fat hub.

The Minimalized Polkadot Relay
Polkadot has always been compared with Cosmos. Although the term is not used, Polkadot also practices Hub Minimalism.
The minimalized Polkadot Relay means that decentralized applications including DeFi can only be hosted by parachains. The development of DeFi protocols on Polkadot relies on the composability between parachains, which is presently challenged by two hurdles.

Octopus Network — The Third Generation Multichain Network
Octopus Network is the third noteworthy multi-chain network after Cosmos and Polkadot. Its goal is to launch and run a large number of Web3.0 applications in the form of application-specific blockchains, aka appchains, which are safe and efficient. The core difference between the three multi-chain networks lies in the way the sub-chain (zone/parachain/appchain) obtains security.

Currently, in the Cosmos Network, a zone is an independent Tendermint consensus blockchain, and the security comes from its own PoS. (Should Cosmos successfully implement its Interchain Shared Security model, this may expand sometime in the future.)
Polkadot is a heterogeneous sharded blockchain. Parachains are not blockchains with independent consensus, but shards. The Relay Chain does all the validation and guarantees that every parachain has the same level of security.
An appchain can determine its own security level by adjusting the block rewards that it pays to validators.

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
