Akash Network founder Greg Osuri has revealed that recent changes in the licensing of a key component by Cosmos management have rendered Akash unable to use it for production, commercial purposes, or third-party services. Osuri described the licensing adjustment as "hostile," stating that it severely limits Akash's ability to remain within the Cosmos ecosystem. Previously, Akash had announced plans to migrate to a shared security layer while maintaining some Cosmos integrations for interoperability. However, the new licensing terms have significantly hindered these plans, posing a challenge to Akash's continued participation in the Cosmos network.
