Most, if not all, of the [[Five Scholars]] of Nalthis were worldhoppers and are well-regarded by the cosmere-aware scholarly community as pioneers of the study of Investiture and Realmatic Theory.{{wob ref|1548}} After learning from one of the Scholars, [[Vasher]], [[Vivenna]] became a worldhopper as well.{{wob ref|8511}} The [[dragon (cosmere)|dragon]] [[Frost]] is extremely knowledgeable about the cosmere, but is not actually a worldhopper, as he has not left [[Yolen]].{{wob ref|3679}} The [[Sleepless]] are present on several planets across the cosmere, though most have chosen to settle on Roshar and only the Rosharan ones are capable of imitating humans.{{wob ref|12657}}{{wob ref|14312}} Additionally, there are several [[kandra]] from [[Scadrial]] who have become worldhoppers,{{wob ref|5990}} likely to help [[Sazed]] figure out the dynamics of the cosmere.
 
In addition, there is a thriving interplanetary trade system, the quality of which depends on the planets involved—Nalthis is easy to get to and even has customs for travelers to go through; Sel is incredibly dangerous due to the power of Devotion and Dominion being stuck in the Cognitive Realm; Roshar can be welcoming or dangerous, depending on the era; and Scadrial was relatively easy to access and had a stable mercantile system before [[Kelsier]] destroyed the [[Pits of Hathsin]] and rendered [[Ruin's Perpendicularity]] unusable for transferring between the Physical and Cognitive Realms.{{wob ref|9501}}{{msh ref|2|1}} [[Felt]] was involved in trade through the Pits of Hathsin.{{wob ref|11812}} This trade system includes at least one courier service that will carry letters between planets via the Cognitive Realm.{{wob ref|12907}}
 
There is also a kind of "interplanetary postal service" through the Cognitive Realm.{{wob ref|12907}}
