In parallel, Injective is gaining traction in the financial markets with Canary Capital's filing for a staked Injective ETF, which follows SEC guidance on treating staking rewards as income. This move positions Injective alongside other major cryptocurrencies like Solana and Ether in the ETF space, potentially increasing investor interest and market liquidity. The launch of Injective's mainnet, coupled with a $120 million incentive program, underscores its commitment to driving innovation in the DeFi derivatives sector.
