What is Injective?

Injective is a blockchain designed specifically for finance. It is an interoperable and environmentally-friendly layer 1 blockchain that supports advanced DeFi applications, including crypto trading dApps, like spot and derivative exchanges, and lending protocols.

Injective’s whole ethos involves empowering anyone to build these sorts of applications. It provides core financial infrastructure primitives that applications can leverage, including a fully decentralized MEV-resistant on-chain order book. Additionally, all types of financial markets, such as spot, perpetual, futures, and options, are fully on-chain.

Built with the Cosmos SDK, Injective puts a strong emphasis on interoperability, enabling seamless communication with other IBC chains and through Wormhole, extending its interoperability to chains beyond the Cosmos ecosystem, including Ethereum, Solana, Klaytn, and more.
