On Saturday, the Injective team announced via X that it has officially released its new chain upgrade to implement dynamic gas fees with $INJ. With this upgrade, Injective is engineered to lead the industry with optimized onchain revenue generation while simultaneously lowering costs for all onchain users.
The upgrade includes the IIP-619 proposal. This proposal seeks to advance INJ into a new deflationary phase by permanently increasing the rate of total supply reduction. The updated INJ framework reinforces deflation as a defining property of INJ. Once implemented onchain, the changes are expected to double the rate of INJ deflation, increasing deflation by a factor of 100%.
When combined with the existing Injective Community BuyBack, which systematically removes INJ from circulation, Injective's tokenomics design shifts toward a structurally enhanced deflationary model. Reduced issuance and recurring token burns operate in tandem to strengthen long term supply contraction.
Injective uniquely provides powerful core financial infrastructure primitives that applications can leverage, including a fully decentralized MEV-resistant on-chain orderbook. Developers can utilize Injective’s plug-and-play modules to rapidly deploy applications that could take years on other chains. Injective is also one of the most interoperable L1s ever created, which is fully compatible with major chains such as Ethereum and Solana.
Injective is an open, interoperable layer-one blockchain for building powerful DeFi applications. Injective uniquely provides plug-and-play financial infrastructure primitives, such as a high-performance on-chain decentralized exchange infrastructure, decentralized bridges, oracles, and a composable smart contract layer with CosmWasm. INJ is trading at $3.40, down 6.4% in the last 24 hours.
