2022 年 5 月 9 日

What Is Injective Protocol (INJ)?

Injective enables access to unlimited decentralized finance markets. Users can create any financial market on Injective’s fast, cross-chain, zero gas fee, secure, and fully decentralized exchange protocol.

The Injective Chain is custom built to support Ethereum-compatible DeFi applications that reach instant finality, sub 2 second block times, and lightning fast transaction speeds (10,000+ TPS).

The trading infrastructure of Injective is supported entirely by a central limit order book that integrates the user-friendly interface and speed of centralized exchanges with the transparency of decentralized exchanges. Injective unique decentralized ordebrook exchange protocol is able to support cross-chain trading of crypto, perpetuals, futures, synthetics, and exotic assets across distinct blockchains such as Ethereum, BSC, and Cosmos.

The Injective ecosystem includes 100+ projects and over 200K+ community members from around the globe. Injective is backed by a group of prominent investors such as Binance, Pantera Capital, and Mark Cuban.

INJ is the native token of Injective Protocol. INJ is a scarce asset that is used for governance, exchange value capture, liquidity mining, and staking. 60% of all exchange fees are used to buy back and burn INJ every two weeks which allows the supply of INJ to dramatically decrease over time. In addition to this, transactions on Injective Protocol brought by new Injective ecosystem projects also help to burn more INJ.
