Injective RPC Endpoint
Flat-rate Injective RPC provider and Injective RPC node access: free tier, no KYC, HTTP & WebSocket.
https://rpc.swiftnodes.io/rpc/injective?key=YOUR_API_KEYwss://rpc.swiftnodes.io/ws/injective?key=YOUR_API_KEYInjective is a Cosmos SDK Layer 1 built for finance, featuring native exchange and orderbook modules. It uses CometBFT (Tendermint) consensus for fast finality and the INJ token for gas, staking, and governance.

About Injective
Injective launched its mainnet on November 8, 2021. It is built with the Cosmos SDK and uses CometBFT (Tendermint) Proof-of-Stake consensus, with sub-second block times (around 0.6-0.65 seconds) and instant finality.
INJ uses 18 decimals. Injective ships chain-level financial primitives such as an onchain central-limit orderbook, and has added native EVM support alongside its CosmWasm and Cosmos interfaces. Tooling includes CosmJS, the Injective SDK, and Tendermint RPC.
Common Use Cases on Injective
- Onchain orderbook DEXes
- Derivatives and perpetuals
- Tokenized real-world assets
- Staking and governance
- Cross-chain DeFi
Injective Ecosystem
Injective hosts finance-focused apps such as Helix (orderbook DEX), Mito, and Hydro Protocol, connected to the broader Cosmos ecosystem via IBC.

Frequently Asked Questions: Injective
Does Injective have an EVM chain ID?
Injective is a Cosmos SDK chain identified by the chain-id string injective-1 for its Cosmos interface. It has added native EVM support; for EVM-specific deployments confirm the current EVM chain ID against official Injective docs.
How is Injective queried?
Injective is queried over CometBFT (Tendermint) RPC and Cosmos REST/gRPC interfaces (via CosmJS or the Injective SDK), and, with native EVM support, also via Ethereum JSON-RPC for EVM contracts.
How many decimals does INJ have?
INJ has 18 decimals.
Injective guides from the blog
- Injective RPC: A Chain-Level Order BookInjective is a Cosmos-SDK finance L1 (injective-1) whose defining feature is a native, chain-level central-limit order book — a protocol module, not a smart contract. The RPC is CometBFT/Tendermint JSON-RPC (not eth_*), with sub-second blocks and instant single-block finality. Here's the developer map, including how you query the exchange module and place orders.
