Nibiru is a proof-of-stake layer-1 blockchain that belongs to the Cosmos family of interconnected chains. It is aimed at DeFi, games and other on-chain apps, and its team highlights quick block times and high throughput. Nibiru also offers EVM compatibility, built by adapting Ethereum node logic, so developers can use either Ethereum-style contracts or its native Cosmos-style tooling.
The native token is NIBI. It pays network fees and is staked with validators to help secure the chain. Fees are paid in NIBI, so you need a small balance in your wallet before you can interact with any dApp. At the time of writing, DeFi TVL on Nibiru is about $373,382, which makes it a small ecosystem.
The Nibiru dApps on our site lean toward staking, lending and swaps, plus a few multi-chain names. Eris Protocol offers liquid staking across several Cosmos chains, Friendly Market is an early-stage lending protocol that links to Compound V3 markets, and MIM Swap is a small stableswap venue that carries high risk. PRDT is a price-prediction platform that counts as gambling, so readers must be 18+ (21+ where required) and should check that online gambling is legal where they live. Multi-chain protocols such as LayerZero V2 and Uniswap V3 also show up in the listings.

Guides for Nibiru and other chains
Blockchain
Blockchain Examples and How They WorkLearn how blockchains record and verify transactions, how consensus keeps a shared ledger in sync, and how Bitcoin, Ethereum and other networks put the technology to work. See practical examples, key trade-offs and ways to assess whether a blockchain is a good fit.
Blockchain
Blockchain for Data: Uses, Limits and How It WorksBlockchains can create shared records that are difficult to alter, but they are not a general-purpose replacement for databases or file storage. Learn what belongs on-chain, how blockchains connect to outside data, and when the trade-offs make sense.

Casper Network and CSPR: A Practical Guide for 2026Casper Network is a proof-of-stake blockchain, and CSPR is its native token. This guide explains the network’s purpose, how CSPR is used, and what to check before staking or transacting.

Cosmos Network Guide: Chains, IBC and ATOM in 2026Cosmos is an ecosystem of independent blockchains, not one chain that processes every app and token. Learn how the Cosmos Hub, Cosmos SDK and IBC fit together, what ATOM does, and how to assess transfers, staking and risks in 2026.
Blockchain
How the Bitcoin Lightning Network WorksThe Bitcoin Lightning Network moves payments through channels that sit on top of Bitcoin, so most transfers do not need their own blockchain transaction. Learn how channels, routing, fees and liquidity work, and what to consider before using Lightning.

How to Mine Cryptocurrency on Android in 2026Android phones can run mining software, but their limited processing power, battery drain and heat make profitable mining unlikely. Learn how to assess the risks, try a small proof-of-work experiment safely, and spot apps that only simulate mining or sell cloud contracts.
Frequently asked questions
What is Nibiru Chain?
Nibiru is a proof-of-stake layer-1 blockchain in the Cosmos family of interconnected chains. It is built for smart contracts and DeFi, with a focus on fast block times and throughput. It also supports Ethereum-style contracts through an EVM-compatible execution layer.
What is the NIBI token used for?
NIBI is the native token of Nibiru. It is used to pay transaction fees and to stake with validators that secure the network. Fee amounts can change over time, so check your wallet for the current cost before you confirm a transaction.
Is Nibiru EVM compatible?
Yes, Nibiru supports EVM compatibility, which its roadmap describes as adapting Ethereum's Go-Ethereum logic for its nodes. Alongside that, it keeps its Cosmos-style foundations and CosmWasm-style smart contracts. Developers can therefore choose between Ethereum-style tooling and native Cosmos tooling.
Which dApps can I use on Nibiru?
Our directory lists 13 dApps for Nibiru. Examples include Eris Protocol for liquid staking, Friendly Market for lending, MIM Swap for stablecoin swaps and PRDT for price prediction. Larger multi-chain names such as LayerZero V2 and Uniswap V3 also appear in the listings.
How big is the Nibiru DeFi ecosystem?
At the time of writing, DeFi TVL on Nibiru is about $373,382, which is small next to the large smart contract chains. That means liquidity can be thin, and prices on small pools can move sharply. Treat any dApp here with extra care and size your positions accordingly.
Is it safe to use prediction or betting dApps like PRDT?
PRDT is a price-prediction platform where users bet on whether a price goes up or down, which counts as gambling. You must be 18 or older, or 21 or older where required, and you should check that online gambling is legal where you live. Only use funds you can afford to lose.
