Tokenized treasuries brought $1.2B on-chain in the last 4 months. The BlackRock BUIDL Fund alone accumulated over $527M since its launch, showcasing the potential of tokenized assets in traditional finance. Injective is leading this revolution, powering major asset tokenization platforms. Here’s what happened in just the last few days: 🏦 On Monday, Ondo Finance launched USDY on Injective. USDY is a tokenized note secured by short-term U.S. Treasuries and bank demand deposits, designed to provide the utility of a stablecoin with the added benefit of U.S. dollar-denominated yield. 🏔 By Wednesday, Injective onboarded USDM, issued by Mountain Protocol, is the first permissionless yield-bearing stablecoin, backed by U.S. Treasury Bills. It provides holders with secure, regulated access to a stablecoin that also incorporated BUIDL into USDM reserves in June. 💹 Injective’s advanced capabilities as the only L1 built for finance, including the world's first RWA module, make this possible. The RWA module uniquely enables institutions and users alike to launch new tokenized offerings with custom rule sets and parameters. Injective today also powers some of the most liquid on-chain products for commodities, FX and more with the help of its RWA module. This is just the beginning as Injective further converges traditional finance with the on-chain world.

Today, Injective Labs announced the launch of the first ever Injective Staking Exchange-Traded Product (ETP) by 21Shares. This is why it matters: Not only is this an innovative financial product; it's a strategic advancement that bridges the gap between traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized markets. As a regulated financial offering, AINJ paves the way for broader institutional participation and adoption of Injective as a whole 🏦 👉 AINJ is provided by 21Shares, a primary issuer of crypto ETPs. 21Shares is also one of the leading organizations to spearhead efforts for the Bitcoin ETF alongside Cathie Wood’s Ark Invest, with over $3 billion of assets under management for the Bitcoin ETF alone. 👉 Unprecedented institutional access AINJ is supported by major financial exchanges and brokerages globally such as Interactive Brokers, Saxo Bank, Swissquote, eToro, and more. These banks and brokerages together manage trillions of dollars in combined assets for millions of users. This, in turn, provides regulated access to Injective and its broader ecosystem. 👉 Exclusive Cohort With AINJ, Injective joins an extraordinarily select group of crypto networks to date with a regulated ETP product. 👉 Physically Backed Asset AINJ is backed by INJ that is stored securely by an institutional-grade custodian, offering a direct TradFi gateway to the underlying asset. 👉 Concluding Thoughts AINJ represents a true paradigm shift for the industry as a whole, providing a seamless gateway into Injective. From day one, we Injective Labs sought to build the first and most performant blockchain for finance. The launch of the Injective ETP furthers our mission to integrate the world of traditional finance with a truly on-chain network in order to create a free and inclusive financial system through decentralization. This is just the beginning.

The Injective Builder House kicked off with a keynote by Injective Labs co-founder and CEO Eric Chen. The session covered the history of Injective, the core components powering the only specialized L1 for finance, modules which developers can use to rapidly create innovative dApps and Injective’s extraordinary growth story over the past year. A few major points include: 1️⃣ Injective has pioneered a shared liquidity network that allows any developer to tap into institutional grade liquidity from day one 2⃣ Injective's core modules (ex: on-chain orderbook, oracle, smart contracts, etc.) allow anyone to launch dApps 20X more quickly than on any other chain 3⃣ Thanks to the ever growing Injective ecosystem and vibrant community, the blockchain has grown to be one of the largest in all of crypto. A few interesting stats include: -Average Daily Transactions up 411% -Total On-Chain Wallets up ~36X -Injective TypeScript Downloads up 285% 4⃣ Injective powers the most liquid markets for real world asset products such as on-chain Euros, Gold and more. Both everyday users and institutions can access RWAs on chain more seamlessly than ever before, unfettered by fees, delays or general access bottlenecks. 5⃣ Injective's ecosystem today spans all of Web3 finance which includes DeFi, RWAs, NFT Fi, GameFi, trading, lending and more. Developers are able to create innovative new protocols faster than ever using Injective’s plug and play modules alongside its shared liquidity. These applications could not possibly have been created outside of Injective. Injective is enabling unprecedented value unlock for users, institutions and more on a daily basis now thanks to its groundbreaking technological breakthroughs that are redefining the world of finance.

Development activity is arguably one of the best ways to assess the adoption of a blockchain. Injective's on-chain dev activity is rapidly rising with builders exploring a diverse array of use cases spanning Web3 finance. This includes fully on-chain trading, lending, real world asset tokenization, options, prediction markets and much more. A major part of this adoption is driven by Injective's plug-and-play modules (e.g. on-chain orderbook, RWAs) that anyone can aggregate in order to rapidly create innovative applications rather than having to create every component from scratch. In the coming months, we Injective Labs will introduce brand new developer toolkits, environments and on-ramps to make Injective the easiest place to build in the entire industry. Crypto developer adoption is about to enter a new era ⚒

The team at Injective Labs has developed exchange technology that allows any form of collateral—such as T-bills, real estate, exotics, and beyond—to be used as margin for trading all types of derivatives. We have some exciting news and use cases coming soon. If you find this interesting, please reach out.

🚀 Injective today integrated PayPal USD (PYUSD), becoming one of the first ever layer 1 blockchains to support the new stablecoin released by PayPal & Paxos. 🌉 PYUSD can be onboarded from Ethereum & Solana onto Injective using interoperability solutions such as Wormhole. This is also the first time that a major stable asset is permissionlessly available across Ethereum, Injective and Solana. Applications built on Injective can leverage PYUSD for a diverse array of functionalities from lightning fast payments to sophisticated forms of decentralized finance. 🏦 Institutions are continuing to rapidly engage with the emerging world of crypto assets. Real world asset tokenization, stablecoins and yield bearing assets are all beginning to move fully on-chain. This in turn not only accelerates capital efficiency but also engenders novel use cases that were previously unimaginable. 🌐 We at Injective Labs are excited to be playing a role in further converging the worlds of traditional and decentralized finance through our work and collaborations with financial institutions across the globe. This is only the beginning.

The worlds leading digital asset custodian, Fireblocks, has integrated Injective to accelerate institutional adoption. Now some of the largest institutions can directly access INJ and seamlessly onboard onto the Injective ecosystem. Read more 👇 https://lnkd.in/erwAvhEq
