We are very excited to share that Injective (INJ), is now listed on Coinhako.

What is INJ?

The Injective Protocol is a blockchain specifically tailored for the financial sector. It functions as an open, interoperable Layer-1 blockchain that propels the creation of advanced DeFi applications. These applications encompass decentralized spot and derivatives exchanges, prediction markets, and lending protocols, among others.

INJ is the native utility token of Injective and has a total supply of 100,000,000. It is a scarce asset used for governance, token burn auctions, and staking on the PoS network. The burn auctions on Injective are unique, as 60% of all fees collected from dApps are auctioned off weekly via a buyback and burn mechanism. This process significantly reduces the supply of INJ over time, adding value to the entire Injective ecosystem. 

Injective is pioneering a new decentralized economy with the goal of creating a freer and more inclusive financial system. With the ability to plug-and-play primitives easily into any DeFi application, Injective is spearheading a diversified ecosystem for the future of finance. 

How does the Injective Protocol work?

Injective consists of four main components:

Injective Chain: The Injective Chain is a public blockchain network that utilizes the Tendermint consensus. Its core protocol operations are carried out using native modules integrated with the Cosmos-SDK, along with smart contracts on the CosmWasm smart contract layer.

Injective Bridge: The Injective Bridge is a decentralized cross-chain bridging infrastructure that connects with Ethereum and any IBC-enabled blockchain. Utilizing Injective's custom peggy bridge system, the bridge is decentralized and secured by validators from the Injective chain.

Injective API nodes: The nodes act as a data layer for the protocol and offer transaction relay services. These nodes function as a decentralized data layer for external clients by providing high-performance, low-latency APIs for hosting user interfaces for exchanges, programmatic trading, and more. Additionally, Injective API nodes can optionally offer a transaction relay service that enables applications to allow users to send transactions with zero-gas fees through Injective's fee delegation mechanism.

Injective dApps and tooling: Injective is a fully decentralized protocol that enables individuals to access both the blockchain and dApps built on-chain in a permissionless manner. Several dApps like DEXs, insurance, prediction markets and more.
