Why Injective’s MultiVM Era Is a Game Changer
Injective just entered a new phase in its journey with the launch of its native EVM mainnet, and it’s not just a tech upgrade it’s a strategic turning point. Before this, Injective was already known as a finance-focused Layer-1 with a solid Cosmos foundation and built-in financial modules.
Now, by running both EVM and WASM together on the same chain, Injective opens the doors to a whole new world of builders and capital.
The reason this matters so much is simple: a huge number of developers know how to build in Ethereum’s language and ecosystem. With native EVM support, they can bring their tools, their code, and their communities over to Injective without rewriting everything. That means fewer barriers to entry, more innovation, and faster growth for Injective’s financial ecosystem.
▸ Injective offers unified assets and liquidity across both EVM and WASM, so nothing sits stuck in one corner of the chain.
▸ Builders can use familiar tools like Hardhat and Foundry and still tap into Injective’s finance modules out of the box.
▸ The ecosystem now supports 30+ live dApps using this architecture, which is rare for a Layer-1 right after an EVM launch.
This multi-virtual-machine design means Injective stops being “just another chain” and becomes a cross-ecosystem hub where code from Ethereum, Cosmos, and eventually other environments can coexist and share liquidity. For users, that translates to more apps, more assets, and a richer financial experience without sacrificing speed or fees.
And for the community, it gives Injective a clear identity: a finance-first chain that is open to everyone.
