Today, Injective is excited to unveil its collaboration with Arbitrum, the foremost Layer 2 technology stack empowering projects to innovate and expand within Ethereum. 

By customizing Arbitrum’s unique Orbit stack, Injective’s inEVM is now even more bespoke, unlocking new frontiers for inEVM and empowering users with seamless, efficient, and cost-effective transactions. 

inEVM was already meticulously engineered to meet the unique needs of Injective and the broader Ethereum ecosystem. Working alongside Arbitrum allows a broader developer toolkit for inEVM users which was previously only available in the Ethereum L2 ecosystem. In turn, this makes inEVM more powerful than ever before, providing the developer access to Ethereum while simultaneously retaining the lightning fast speeds and low fees on Injective.

What is Arbitrum?

Arbitrum presents a suite of Ethereum scaling solutions designed to simplify the creation and utilization of decentralized applications. This comprehensive suite encompasses protocols, chains, and SDKs that power the Arbitrum ecosystem. One of its core offerings is Arbitrum Orbit, which empowers any project to establish their own Rollup and AnyTrust chains. 

At the core of inEVM lies Arbitrum’s Orbit stack, a powerful toolkit developed by Offchain Labs. This stack serves as the foundation for building scalable, secure, and efficient layer 2 solutions, facilitating the seamless integration of smart contracts across multiple blockchain platforms.

A Robust inEVM Environment

By harmoniously integrating components across Arbitrum and the native Injective mainnet, inEVM is able to offer a developer experience like no other.

For instance, inEVM is able to leverage INJ as its native gas token which is previously unheard of in the world of L2 rollups. In addition, inEVM is able to offer the same familiar dev tooling found on Ethereum such as Hardhat and Foundry. All of this is achieved while retaining the lightning fast speeds and low gas fees found on Injective itself.

inEVM not only enhances transaction processing efficiency but also underscores Injective's dedication to fostering a user-friendly and economically sustainable ecosystem.

Furthermore, inEVM transactions can qualify for participation in Injective's innovative Burn Auction. This auction mechanism systematically burns a percentage of all protocol fees on a weekly basis. Injective's Burn Auction serves to capture protocol value for all users, offering benefits to participants across the ecosystem—be they users, community members, or developers.

The Epicenter for Ethereum and Injective

The significance of this collaboration extends far beyond the realms of a single blockchain network. With inEVM, users gain access to a seamless platform connecting Ethereum, Injective and Cosmos, enabling cross-chain compatibility and fostering a more interconnected blockchain landscape. This interoperability opens up a myriad of possibilities for developers and users alike, enabling the seamless transfer of assets and liquidity across disparate blockchain networks.

As Injective continues to bridge the gap between Ethereum, Cosmos and other widely adopted L1s, including Solana, it steadfastly advances its mission in creating a more democratized financial future through decentralization.

Desig, the pioneering multi-sig wallet, is now integrated with the Injective mainnet. This integration ushers in a new era of security and operational flexibility, specifically designed to meet the sophisticated needs of institutions, organizations, and advanced users within the Injective ecosystem.

What is Desig?

Desig is a groundbreaking omnichain smart multi-signature wallet designed to meet the complex demands of modern decentralized networks and institutional frameworks.

By requiring multiple approvals for significant transactions, Desig introduces an essential layer of security and accountability crucial for institutional and organizational users managing large-scale blockchain operations.

Today, Injective unveils another enhancement to its groundbreaking burn auction. Following the success of INJ 2.0, which empowered any dApp or protocol to contribute transaction fees to the weekly burn auction, this update makes a further amendment and allows anyone–from dApps to protocols and now individual community members–to contribute funds to the weekly burn auction. 

This latest iteration marks a significant stride towards inclusivity, opening the doors for a broader range of contributors, including protocols, dApps, and users, to participate in the burn auction.

The Evolution of the Injective Weekly Burn Auctions

Injective's Weekly Burn Auction made its debut in December 2021 as a novel addition to the ecosystem. Initially, all exchange dApps on Injective contributed 60% of their transaction fees to a weekly auction, where participants could bid for the entire week's collected fees. The winning bid in INJ for the auction basket was then subsequently burned.

This mechanism effectively captured the total value of activity on DEXs deployed on Injective while benefiting all stakeholders involved.

INJ 2.0

However, as Injective evolved into a blockchain built for finance, it became imperative to adapt this mechanism to accommodate the growing diversity of dApps. In August 2023, the Burn Auction underwent its first upgrade, allowing any dApp, regardless of nature, to contribute. This expansion welcomed a multitude of applications, including lending platforms, NFT marketplaces and prediction applications, to participate in the burn. 

Moreover, protocols gained the ability to allocate any desired amount–not just 60%–to the auction, with the option to dedicate even up to 100% of their collected fees to the auction basket. 

This allowed greater flexibility for developers, enabling those experiencing higher growth volumes within their protocols to not only celebrate their success individually, but also highlight it for the entire ecosystem. This exemplifies Injective’s mission in fostering a truly decentralized ecosystem. 

The Next Stage of INJ Burn Auctions

Today’s update marks the next stage of the INJ Burn, allowing any community member to contribute any asset of their choice into the auction basket. This iteration transcends barriers, inviting contributions from every corner of the community and enriching the ecosystem’s diversity. 

"The essence of decentralization lies in empowering every individual to play an active role in shaping the ecosystem," said Eric Chen, co-founder and CEO of Injective Labs. "By democratizing access to the burn auction, Injective is not only amplifying community participation but also reinforcing the collective commitment towards decentralization."

This deflationary mechanism not only reduces the token supply but also instills a sustainable model for value creation within the ecosystem.

The continuous growth and iteration of the burn auction underscore Injective's commitment to inclusivity and value creation for its community. By expanding participation rights and fostering a culture of collaboration, Injective paves the way for a more vigorous and resilient decentralized ecosystem.

Today, XION announces its integration with Injective, marking a major milestone in bringing chain abstraction into the Injective ecosystem.

As a blockchain purpose-built for mainstream adoption, XION’s Chain Abstraction enhances blockchain usability by seamlessly connecting users, apps, and liquidity across ecosystems, allowing XION to serve as an extension to all major blockchain networks.

This integration sets the stage for new users to onboard onto Injective and utilize the strength of the Injective network, without any friction points of entry, helping to push Injective further towards mass adoption. 

What is XION?  

XION is the first layer one blockchain purpose-built for consumer adoption through crypto abstraction. Utilizing protocol-level implementations related to abstracted accounts, signatures, fees, interoperability, and more, XION enables secure, intuitive, and seamless user experiences. 

XION aims to make Web3 easier to navigate for all users by abstracting away its inherent complexities. Through familiar Web2 methods like email, users can onboard onto XION, creating an account that seamlessly interacts with any application across any device, including desktop and mobile. Users can also enjoy a frictionless experience without the concerns associated with blockchain technology, such as gas fees, providing an accessible interface reminiscent of traditional Web2 platforms.

Mass Adoption for the Injective Ecosystem

The integration will enable the seamless flow of users and assets throughout both ecosystems, enhancing liquidity and in turn creating a variety of novel cross-ecosystem use-cases.

The first dApp to be available on XION through this integration is Talis, the premier NFT marketplace built on Injective. Any user (within Cosmos, Ethereum, Solana or beyond), will be able to create an account on XION and begin using Talis instantly, without needing to grapple with complexities such as cross-chain bridging, browser plugins, seed phrases, gas fees, and transaction signing.  

“Just like the internet, users shouldn’t need to know which infrastructure applications they are using are built on. All that matters is that it works,” said Burnt Banksy, a core contributor to XION. He added, “We’re proud to launch Chain Abstraction as it vastly accelerates XION’s impact in making Web3 accessible to all users.”

A New Future of Chain Abstraction

As XION's expansion unfolds, an increasing array of Injective ecosystem dApps will become accessible to users through XION’s Chain Abstraction. This breakthrough enables non-crypto-native users to seamlessly onboard powerful on-chain applications and leverage trailblazing technology, without grappling with the complexities inherent in Web3 finance.

This integration not only propels Injective closer to mass adoption but also streamlines onboarding for non-crypto natives, advancing the mission to democratize finance through decentralization.

Today, Injective unveiled the largest tokenomics upgrade to date with the launch of INJ 3.0

With this update, INJ 3.0 dramatically reduces the supply for Injective’s native token, ultimately enabling INJ to become one of the most deflationary assets within the blockchain industry, injecting long-term value to grow the ecosystem. 

Background

INJ, the native asset of Injective, serves as the cornerstone of the ecosystem, boasting a myriad of utilities that span governance, protocol fees, security mechanisms, and beyond. Its versatility and indispensability within the Injective network make it a vital asset in driving the network's growth and functionality. 

However, the utility of INJ has always been highly unique, with features that cannot be found in any other asset. For example, Injective’s Burn Auction has been widely lauded as a distinctive characteristic of INJ’s tokenomics, as it collects, auctions and burns accumulated network fees on a weekly basis. 

In the most recent update to INJ (INJ 2.0), this mechanism expanded to include all dApp network fees, capturing the protocol value that came from the growth of the ecosystem. In turn, the burn auction experienced a surge in activity, witnessing a substantial increase in the amount of INJ burned weekly. 

As Injective continues to onboard new users and dApps at a rapid pace, the need for further enhancements becomes evident in order to accommodate the growing ecosystem. It is the only way to encompass and embrace the latest developments along its growth journey.

The INJ 3.0 Update

Enter INJ 3.0, the next evolutionary step in the journey of Injective, poised to address the evolving needs of its expanding user base and ecosystem. 

The Injective community voted overwhelmingly in favor of IIP-392 to launch INJ 3.0 moving forward. Timed with the Bitcoin halving, the INJ 3.0 governance proposal aimed to decrease the supply of INJ over the next two years, with accelerated rates of deflation based on the ratio of staked INJ on-chain.

“This is the next stage in Injective’s evolution; we’ve seen billions of dollars flow in since inception. To guarantee the ecosystem serves long-term as a peer to institutional players, INJ must function as ultrasound money—rewarding early adopters and attracting new participants,” said Jenna Peterson, CEO of the Injective Foundation. “With these vital updates approved through governance by the broader Injective community, INJ 3.0 aims for INJ to surpass even the sound monetary properties of Bitcoin.”

Injective has increased the rate of deflation by a factor of 400%. The specific token supply rate change parameter ensures that Injective remains adaptive and resilient. Injective will adjust its monetary policy in real-time, reacting swiftly to fluctuations in staking activity. As a result, as more INJ is staked, the deflationary properties will increase faster. This level of flexibility maintains equilibrium and security within the ecosystem. 

INJ Deflationary Rate

The supply decrease schedule of INJ 3.0 will follow an accelerated, yet tightly controlled reduction rate timeline to protect INJ against inflation. The bounds and timeline for the token supply rate change is as follows: 

Lower Bound: Currently set at 5%, but will decrease 25% over a period of two years on a uniform quarterly basis.

Upper Bound: Currently set at 10%, but will decrease 30% over the same two-year period.

Schedule by quarter end, 2024-2026+: 

With INJ 3.0, Injective aims to continue its trajectory of growth and innovation, ensuring that its native asset remains at the forefront of Web3 finance.

Injective today is releasing the ionic upgrade to the Injective Bridge, unveiling the most advanced interoperability solution in crypto alongside a superior user experience with near zero fees.

The all new Injective Bridge will unify one click bridging across major chains including Ethereum, Solana and Cosmos. In addition, it brings a revamped UX with easy deposit functions, comprehensive transaction histories and state of the art transfer tracking mechanisms.

Background

Injective today is one of the most interoperable L1 blockchains in existence. This was achieved via strategically integrating some of the most widely utilized networks across the expansive crypto industry.

The vision for Injective's interoperability lies in its roots of creating one core hub for all of finance to thrive. To do so, it was essential to ensure that any asset stemming from distinct chains can find a home and easily onboard onto Injective.

Injective developers began by creating the Peggy bridge which tied together Ethereum with Injective itself. This would enable any ERC20 asset to be bridged onto Injective. The synergy with Ethereum itself was further heightened with the creation of an advanced signature scheme that would allow Ethereum users to sign any transaction on Injective with any EVM compatible wallet such as MetaMask.

As the ecosystem continued to grow, so did Injective's efforts towards creating routes to new chains. Injective was one of the first chains to natively adopt IBC compatibility, effectively allowing developers to seamlessly transfer data and assets. This allows any asset to seamlessly flow into Injective from any other IBC-enabled blockchain.

Last year, Injective began to make even larger strides towards interoperability when it integrated Wormhole, making it one of the first chains to do so. This also allowed Injective to interact directly with prominent blockchains such as Solana.

The Injective Bridge: Ionic Upgrade

The Ionic upgrade brings Injective to an entirely new level. Now for the first time, users and developers alike will be able to leverage one click bridging from any major chain onto Injective.

With the Ionic Upgrade, Injective users will be able to bridge any asset from the larger IBC ecosystem, bridge the latest assets via Wormhole 2.0 (without ever leaving Injective), and also continuously bridge any ERC20 token via Injective’s native Ethereum bridge (Peggy bridge). Under the hood, this is an extensive lift by developers in the Injective ecosystem who worked to tightly integrate all of the distinct interoperability frameworks into one standalone product. As a result, the complexities around bridging across individual chains are all abstracted away into one unified product built on Injective.

One Click Bridging

One Click Deposits on the Injective Bridge

The Ionic upgrade provides everyone with an intuitive user experience that makes onboarding onto Injective easier than ever before! With only a click, you can deposit from major networks such as Ethereum, Polygon and more. Major assets such as USDT, wETH and more can also be bridged onto Injective where the user can also designate the recipient address. This provides far more flexibility than before, where anyone can choose to bridge assets onto a different wallet or network.

Seamless Chain Access

The Injective Bridge Portal

Now developers and users alike can transfer from a host of chains including EVM chains such as Ethereum, non-EVM chains such as Solana and IBC-enabled chains such as Celestia. The same deposit framework outlined above is retained, meaning that regardless of which chain or asset is selected, the entire process can be completed with just a click.

Furthermore, the balances for any asset across any chain can be viewed on the same page, allowing users to have a complete view of their holdings.

Expanded Transaction Monitoring

The Bridge Process on Injective

Every single step of the bridging process can be monitored by users at all times. The flow begins of course with the user initiating the bridge process with one click at the start. From there, the entire bridging experience is abstracted away.

If users choose to do so, they can view the transaction on the explorer for the initial chain such as Etherscan for Ethereum. In addition, once the asset appears on Injective, the Injective Explorer can be used to view the asset as well.

Users do not need to be on the bridge page after they make the initial deposit, so even if the site is closed, the bridging process will occur just the same. The new monitoring system provides everyone with further peace of mind as now assets can always be tracked through a simple UI and more detailed explorers as well.

Comprehensive Bridging History

Injective Bridge History

The Ionic upgrade for the Injective Bridge also provides for the first time a detailed history of any transfer made.

The initial overview provides the exact timestamps as well so a user can always view the page at a later date. Expanding the "Completed" dropdown will also highlight the exact bridge amount, the transaction hash with an explorer link and the wallets involved in the bridging process.

Enhanced Ethereum Compatibility

Injective's compatibility with Ethereum is further highlighted by lightning fast transfer times for both deposits and withdrawals. Unlike other blockchains today where withdrawals can take up to a week, withdrawals on Injective take only minutes!

As a result, Injective today becomes the fastest chain for interacting with Ethereum and EVM native assets.

Near Zero Fees

Injective release of Gas Compression is also now integrated into the new bridging process, meaning that transactions incur the lowest fees in all of crypto! In the end, this means users are able to retain more of their funds on Injective compared to any other L1 network today.

Wormhole Gateway Integration

The Wormhole experience is also now directly embedded into the Injective Bridge for the first time. As a result, users no longer need to navigate multiple bridge providers or Portal Bridge to make their Wormhole native transfers to Injective.

Assets from chains such as Solana, Polygon, Arbitrum and more can now rapidly be deposited onto Injective. Wallets such as Phantom, Keplr and MetaMask can be utilized for the bridging experience, meaning that users can continue to use familiar wallets to onboard onto Injective.

Wormhole Migration

With the introduction of Wormhole Gateway, a paradigm shift occurred. Tokens bridged in through this upgraded mechanism are automatically designated as bank tokens, the canonical version of the asset on Injective.

Previously, tokens bridged into Injective via Wormhole were designated as CW20 tokens. While these tokens served their purpose, they lacked the seamless interoperability required for optimal performance within the Injective environment. CW20 tokens, although functional, needed to undergo a conversion process into Bank denom tokens to unlock their full potential within the ecosystem. This conversion facilitated compatibility with essential components like the on-chain Injective orderbook module and dApps across the ecosystem.

With the Ionic upgrade directly integrating Wormhole Gateway, users no longer need to manually convert bridged assets into Bank assets. This process now occurs automatically with the new upgrade, significantly enhancing the seamlessness and efficiency of bridging for end-users. As a result, when users bridge a new asset or wish to quickly create markets for tokens, they can do so without any hassle or in-depth technical knowledge about distinct token denominations.

Wormhole Legacy Assets

Starting now, Injective users are encouraged to transition their existing "legacy" tokens to the new Wormhole Gateway standard through the revamped Injective Bridge.

For users with tokens previously bridged into Injective via Wormhole, a "LEGACY" suffix will be assigned. Migrating legacy tokens to the one unified token standard can also be achieved in one click using the Injective Bridge! The Injective bridge provides a user-friendly interface for this migration process, ensuring a smooth transition without compromising on security or efficiency. 

Migrating to one standard will ensure far more composability for assets and new use cases as a whole as dApps across the Injective ecosystem begin to follow one standard.

A New Era of Interoperability

The introduction of the Ionic upgrade to the Injective Bridge represents a major milestone in the evolution of Web3 infrastructure as a whole.

For the first time, anyone can effortlessly deposit assets onto Injective from a host of different networks in one unified product, opening up a world of possibilities for Web3 finance enthusiasts and developers alike. One click deposits, enhanced transaction monitoring, and major optimizations across the infrastructure stack alongside the lowest fees in all of crypto, enable Injective to truly provide the best bridging experience to date. In turn, this allows for far higher levels of composability than what was previously thought to be possible.

By embracing enhanced token standards and prioritizing interoperability, Injective continues to empower users with unparalleled flexibility and efficiency in their digital asset transactions.

Injective’s inEVM enables Ethereum developers to build applications that can uniquely leverage Injective’s blazing fast speeds and near zero fees while simultaneously achieving composability across the WASM and EVM world. In turn, this allows Injective to be the only L1 blockchain capable of unifying the interoperability of Cosmos with the speed of Solana and the developer access of Ethereum.

Together with AltLayer, Injective inEVM is introducing an entirely new design framework to bring to EVM transactions whereby on-chain state validation is carried out with a network of nodes with economic backing, which in turn ensures optimal security and reliability across the entire rollup stack.

What is AltLayer?

AltLayer stands at the forefront of rollup technology, offering a comprehensive suite of solutions designed to address the scalability challenges facing Web3 applications. Central to AltLayer's offerings is its novel product, 'restaked rollups', which supplement existing rollups with enhanced security, decentralization, and interoperability by leveraging the restaking mechanism.

AltLayer is backed by some of the largest institutions in the industry including Polychain Capital, Binance Labs and Jump Crypto.

AltLayer and Injective Bring Fast Finality to inEVM

Restaking based security aims to bring Ethereum security to inEVM and thereby applications built on inEVM.

This is achieved via AltLayer’s MACH framework via which a network of nodes is set up to perform state validation  for the inEVM stack. Upon any detection of an invalid state, a governance proposal will be initiated on-chain to react to the invalid state. If the proposal is approved, MACH's circuit breaker mechanism will automatically halt inEVM's RPC service, protecting users from further malicious operations and enabling them to initiate the process of recalling the transaction altogether.

By doing so, inEVM can leverage the security of not only Injective but also Ethereum as a whole, bringing the security of over $400 Billion to inEVM.

The Future of MACH: Lightning Fast Finality on inEVM

To accelerate the finality of rollups, AltLayer introduced MACH: a fast finality layer for Ethereum. In essence, the protocol is designed to provide faster finality to rollups by allowing operators to restake Ethereum-based assets to back any claims on the rollup state. AltLayer aims to bring the MACH protocol to inEVM in the future as well.

By bringing fast finality rollup services to inEVM, AltLayer and Injective together can empower developers and users alike to leverage the scalability and security benefits of MACH within the platform. This is achieved via distinct validity modes: pessimistic mode, optimistic mode and validity proof mode.

Pessimistic Mode

Within the pessimistic mode, each new state is considered invalid by default and therefore transactions leading to that state are re-executed. As a result, the inEVM operator feeds transaction data directly to the MACH network which in turn re-executes the transaction and reaches consensus on the validity of the proposed state by the operator.

Optimistic Mode

Optimistic Mode. Image provided by AltLayer.

In this mode, the rollup operator asserts a state claim on the MACH protocol, stating that the execution of a specific block of transactions leads to a particular state commitment. 

Within this framework, any node in the MACH network can then challenge the claim and prove that the new state is not valid by engaging with the inEVM operator in a bisection protocol.

Optimistic Mode with ZK Proofs

A variation on the model above relies on the implementation of ZK Fault Proofs. This setup assumes the existence of at least one honest node in the MACH network and network nodes are mostly in observation mode. In theory, this model would replace the prior bisection protocol with on-demand ZK Proofs in which such proofs are generated in case of a challenge.

Validity Proof Mode

In the final mode of the MACH network acts as a decentralized verifier network for validity proofs. The rollup operator such as a sequencer will commit to a newly set of transactions, the resulting state, together with the validity proof on MACH. The MACH network will then verify and reach consensus on the validity of the proof. 

Ethereum Restaked Security on inEVM

Ethereum Restaked Security is a major paradigm shift for inEVM and the world of crypto as a whole. For the first time in history, Ethereum’s $400 Billion network can be utilized to bring security enhancements to rollups built on Injective such as inEVM.

inEVM brings a groundbreaking infrastructure stack designed to hyperscale multi VM development. With inEVM, builders can create a legion of new applications that not only retain the highest performance standards but also directly composes across the IBC and Solana ecosystems over time. With a dedicated network of nodes validating inEVM states and on-chain alerts providing real-time notifications of potentially invalid states, users can transact with confidence on inEVM, knowing that their transactions are protected at all times.

Every single facet of inEVM has been custom built to meet the needs of sophisticated applications, including a hyper scalable execution layer as well as a modular DA layer. This combined with the near zero fees offered by Injective, makes inEVM the foremost solution for Ethereum native builders everywhere.

With Hyperlane integrated into Injective's inEVM, developers can construct interchain applications that shield users from the complexities of the multichain landscape. Whether a user seeks to develop a solidity dApp enabling transactions directly within Injective's WASM apps, Hyperlane makes it easy.

The core features of Hyperlane include:

Contracts: Hyperlane exposes on-chain contracts that allow applications to send and receive messages between chains.

Agents: Agents in the network operate the protocol by adding security and relaying messages across chains.

Applications: Applications that utilize Hyperlane to send and receive messages between different chains. 

Additionally, with the deployment of Warp Routes – Hyperlane's token bridge application – users can now transfer assets such as INJ, USDC, and USDT between the native Injective chain, Ethereum, and inEVM.

A number of key infrastructure platforms were critical in building inEVM. Among these, LayerZero was a crucial component to allow for cross chain messaging and to also allow for the creation of omnichain apps (OApps). 

This spotlight series delves deeper into what LayerZero is and how it was utilized in the creation of inEVM.

What is LayerZero?

LayerZero is an open-source, immutable messaging protocol designed to facilitate the creation of omnichain, interoperable applications. With LayerZero, developers can easily send arbitrary data, external function calls, and tokens with omnichain messaging, while preserving full autonomy and control over their application. 

LayerZero's integration with inEVM ushers in a new era of seamless cross-chain communication, empowering developers to build interoperable dApps that transcend traditional blockchain boundaries. This integration allows users of Ethereum, Arbitrum, and other chains to seamlessly interact with dApps deployed on the inEVM network and vice versa. LayerZero has raised over $100 Million from industry titans such as A16Z, Sequoia and many more.

By bridging these disparate ecosystems, LayerZero enabled dApps launching on inEVM to tap into a vast pool of users, liquidity, and resources from other chains, fostering a vibrant and interconnected ecosystem.

Utilizing LayerZero for inEVM

Developers can leverage LayerZero to create omnichain apps, or OApps, which interact not only within the Injective ecosystem, but also across all interconnected networks supported by Layer Zero. 

The LayerZero Architecture for inEVM

Additionally, developers will be able to utilize LayerZero Endpoints, which are crucial components that facilitate this communication between different blockchains. 

OApps uniquely have horizontal composability, allowing for external cross chain calls to and from inEVM to be containerized as new message packets. This ensures the separation of the receipt logic from the external call itself.

By utilizing LayerZero dApps launched on inEVM can access assets from a host of other networks as well as unique assets typically not available before on Injective such as liquid staked assets. In addition, due to Injective’s integration with IBC, inEVM can enjoy access to both Etheruem native assets along with assets across the Cosmos universe.
