Injective is a purpose-built Layer-1 blockchain designed for fast, secure, and interoperable financial applications. With sub-second block times (~0.64s) and tens of thousands of transactions per second, it offers near-instant settlement and extremely low fees, making it ideal for high-frequency trading, DeFi, and advanced financial instruments.
The network’s modular architecture provides pre-built modules for spot and derivatives trading, insurance, real-world asset tokenization, and more. Developers can plug in these tools without building complex systems from scratch. Multi-VM support (EVM and CosmWasm) and cross-chain bridges allow assets and liquidity to flow seamlessly between Ethereum, Solana, Cosmos, and other networks, giving projects deep liquidity and broad interoperability.
INJ, the native token, powers transactions, staking, and governance, with a deflationary mechanism that increases scarcity as the network grows. By combining high throughput, low fees, interoperability, and ready-to-use financial modules, Injective positions itself as a universal blockchain for DeFi, NFTs, and real-world financial assets—a foundation for the next era of global finance.
