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.
