⚡ Injective: A Layer 1 for Open Finance
Injective is a dedicated Layer 1 blockchain focused on speed, fairness, and freedom, offering near-instant transactions and low fees, aiming to redefine global finance. It acts as a comprehensive financial highway, connecting assets across Cosmos (IBC), Ethereum, and Solana, eliminating walled gardens.
Technologically, Injective uses the Cosmos SDK, secures its network with Proof of Stake, supports CosmWasm, and features a new native EVM for seamless, low-cost execution of Ethereum applications.
A key differentiator is its on-chain order book, which provides a professional trading environment and uses batch auctions to protect users from unfair bots. Developers are equipped with tools to build markets and derivatives. The native token, INJ, fuels staking, governance, and gas, with a burn auction mechanism ensuring continuous scarcity based on network usage. The growing ecosystem is a home for innovation across AI and real-world assets.
