On Monday, the Injective team announced via X that the Injective Nova Program is officially live with Microsoft and Web3Labs.
Announced at the Hong Kong Web3 Festival, this initiative aims to accelerate the growth of artificial intelligence (AI) and Web3 developers, particularly focusing on scaling the ecosystem within Asia and beyond.
-
Microsoft's Contribution: Microsoft provides critical infrastructure by offering Azure cloud credits and enterprise AI tools. These resources help developers scale applications and build intelligent workflows utilizing Injective's native agent stack.
-
Injective's Role: Injective acts as the foundational layer, providing its high-speed on-chain execution environment, technical mentorship, incubation resources, and specialized grants.Web3Labs' Support:
-
Web3Labs facilitates regional execution by tapping into its extensive local networks across Asia to source, vet, and support top-tier development teams.
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 also provides a next-generation, highly interoperable smart contract platform based on Wasm 2.0, with advanced interchain capabilities. Injective utilizes a custom implementation of the Tendermint Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism, providing instant transaction finality with lightning speed – sub-second block times (0.6s) while sustaining enormous throughput (25,000+ TPS). Injective is currently also leading new forms of innovation across a number of verticals, such as its pioneering work to integrate artificial intelligence with on-chain finance.
Injective has achieved a historic milestone of over 1 billion transactions to date, with one of the fastest chains built to date. The Injective ecosystem includes 100+ projects and over 500,000 community members globally. Injective was originally incubated by Binance and is also backed by a group of prominent investors, including Pantera Capital, Jump Crypto, and Mark Cuban.
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 $5.47, up 5.1% in the last 24 hours.
