In short: $PHMN is the governance token of the POSTHUMAN validator, issued natively on Cosmos Hub as a TokenFactory asset with a fixed supply of 131,072. The current official trading venue is Osmosis pool #3477 (PHMN/allBTC). You need a Cosmos wallet such as Keplr or Leap plus a funding asset like ATOM, USDC, or OSMO. Open the pool link, swap into PHMN, and verify the token denom before confirming. If you would rather not buy, you can earn $PHMN by delegating to POSTHUMAN on StakeDrop-eligible networks. After buying, IBC-transfer your PHMN to Cosmos Hub and lock it in the POSTHUMAN DAS to vote.
The rest of this guide walks through each step in detail. The former Neutron pool is no longer an official trading venue.
What is $PHMN?
$PHMN is the token that governs the POSTHUMAN validator — a community-run validator operating on 39 mainnet networks across Cosmos and beyond. The active token is a Cosmos Hub TokenFactory SDK coin, hard-capped at 131,072 PHMN with 6 decimals. It migrated from the original PHMN following the published migration snapshot; distribution and continuity rules are documented in the official migration statement.
Holders lock $PHMN in the POSTHUMAN DAS on DAODAO to vote on validator infrastructure, treasury allocations, liquidity policy, and SubDAO funding. It is also the asset behind POSTHUMAN’s 125% slashing refund and the reward token for StakeDrops. The full spec lives on the $PHMN token page.
What do you need before buying?
- A Cosmos wallet. Keplr or Leap both work with Osmosis and Cosmos Hub. Write your recovery phrase down offline — anyone who has it has your funds.
- A funding asset. ATOM, USDC, or OSMO are the easiest starting points. Buy on any major exchange and withdraw to your wallet, or use the wallet’s built-in on-ramp.
- A little extra for gas. Keep a small amount of OSMO for transaction fees on Osmosis.
How to buy $PHMN on Osmosis
Osmosis hosts the PHMN/allBTC pool, and its router can reach PHMN from most assets you might hold.
- Open the official pool page: app.osmosis.zone/pool/3477.
- Connect your Keplr or Leap wallet.
- Choose the asset you are paying with — ATOM, USDC, OSMO, or allBTC. The Osmosis router swaps it into PHMN automatically, even though the pool itself pairs PHMN with allBTC.
- Check that the token you are receiving is the real PHMN: on Osmosis its denom is
ibc/243B3934C4462EE254C84AA31AF42E34F1869418194D3E4161E4A659A01AC6E6. - Review the price impact and confirm the swap. PHMN appears in your wallet’s Osmosis balance.
How do you verify you’re buying the real $PHMN?
Anyone can create a token named “PHMN”. Before every swap, check the denom your wallet or the DEX interface shows against this table. A listed IBC representation does not mean there is an active pool on that chain:
| Chain | Official denom |
|---|---|
| Cosmos Hub (base) | factory/cosmos146s5j3t7gh2g37ywm47dp8avhesu2htvjjaxq7z55e7xj0rq0k8q5qnjjy/PHMN |
| Osmosis | ibc/243B3934C4462EE254C84AA31AF42E34F1869418194D3E4161E4A659A01AC6E6 |
| Neutron | ibc/0D72F33FDA6B029A6F84A6A0A502922349AE63D4F261EC523E2D5A65B08DC87B |
| BeeZee | ibc/19488A79F091167225A4BFA34BD3D04F11621E682EB14A58B4CA5D6234BA9487 |
Two more rules keep you safe: only use pool links from posthuman.digital/phmn or POSTHUMAN’s official channels, and remember that no admin or “support” will ever DM you first or ask for your recovery phrase.
Can you earn $PHMN instead of buying it?
Yes — buying is optional. Two ways to earn it:
- StakeDrops. Delegate to the POSTHUMAN validator on any StakeDrop-eligible network (look for the +$PHMN badge). Twice a quarter, qualifying delegators receive $PHMN on top of their native staking rewards, claimable at claim.posthuman.digital.
- Contributions. The contributions program rewards open-source and community work with $PHMN.
Holders of the original PHMN also received new PHMN through the published migration snapshot — see the migration data if that applies to you.
What can you do with $PHMN after buying?
$PHMN is a governance asset, and its main utility sits on Cosmos Hub:
- IBC-transfer it to Cosmos Hub. Your wallet’s send flow handles this — the PHMN you bought on Osmosis arrives as the base TokenFactory asset.
- Lock it in the POSTHUMAN DAS on DAODAO to get voting power.
- Vote on validator, treasury, liquidity, and SubDAO decisions — how it all fits together is on the DAO page.
