Moving $INJ from Robinhood to Injective is now super simple…
you can buy INJ with USD on @RobinhoodApp and send it directly to your own wallet.
Here’s how ⚶
First, open Keplr and choose @injective network, copy your wallet address, it should start with inj
then go to Robinhood, search for INJ and buy however much you need.
once the INJ is available to transfer, tap Send and paste your Keplr address.
before confirming, take a second to check everything
➡️ Asset: $INJ
➡️ Network: Injective
➡️ Address: starts with inj
If its your first time, send a small test amount first, always better to double check than to learn the hard way.
once it arrives, your INJ should appear in Keplr. You can also track the transaction on InjScan.
Important:
@keplrwallet uses the native Injective address (inj...) while MetaMask normally uses an EVM address (0x...), so don’t mix them up.
If the send option isn’t available, check your verification status, funding hold, transfer limits or network status.
for users who cant send native INJ, USDC can be another option
buy /hold USDC ⇢ send it over ethereum to metaMask ⇢ keep ETH for gas ⇢ use the Injective CCTP bridge ⇢ receive native USDC on Injective.
Robinhood US and Europe support direct INJ transfers. UK users currently need another exchange for sending native INJ to an external wallet.
so once your $INJ arrives connect your wallet to Injective Hub and explore staking, governance and the wider injective ecosystem.
Pretty simple
buy INJ → send to inj... → receive on Injective

Not every part of an ecosystem gets built during the hype, some are built when nobody is watching
thats what makes the NFT story on @injective so interesting.
the story really started taking shape in 2023.
In April, @ProtocolTalis announced its plans to bring the first NFT marketplace to Injective.
then by June, when Talis launched as the first NFT marketplace on Injective.
Around the same time talis and injective introduced tthe Zen NFT collection which saw 147,000 NFTs minted across three phases.
from there $INJ NFT scene started building its own identity.
➥ talis brought NFT trading, launches and collection activity to Injective
➥ later in 2023, Dagora launched as another NFT marketplace and launchpad
➥ while TFM brought an NFT aggregator with collection data and analytics to the Injective ecosystem
then came collections that added their own identity to Injective’s NFT culture.
@InjectiveQuants became the first NFT collection to directly contribute to the INJ burn auction, while @xCultofAnons became part of the most growing NFT community around Injective
There was already real activity building on Injective.
by december 2023, talis had processed 200K+ $INJ, with 140K+ wallets created, 46K+ NFT sales and 238K+ NFTs created.
and Injective’s 2023 review later reported that talis had surpassed 265,000 NFTs created, making it one of the leading NFT protocols in crypto at the time.
but Injective’s builders, collectors and communities kept building through the quiet period.
thats what matters
Injective’s NFT ecosystem went through a full market cycle, built its own marketplaces, collections and communities and became part of the wider Injective culture alongside creators and the meme community.
markets change and narratives change, but the people who keep building when things get quiet are what give $INJ its identity
the NFT chapter of Injective is a story about builders staying through the cycle.
And that’s real resilience 🥷
September was a serious month for $INJ
From around $4.8 at the start of September to the $7.4 now
INJ had a strong move and pushed to 8.6$ during the rally.
but the price is only one part of the story
• 3B+ total transactions
• 0.59s block time
• low transaction cost
• 500+ onchain assets
• $6.8B RWA volume
and the RWA numbers are getting interesting.
the RWA market across 35 chains is around $46B.
injective already holds around $1.1B, giving it roughly 2.3% of the market
@PAPLpineapple also moved $1B+ in residential mortgage records onchain, with a broader portfolio of 29,000+ mortgages worth $10B+ targeted.
Injective also reached #1 in 7-day RWA activity, showing how quickly the RWA side of the ecosystem is growing.
September also brought Injective Mint, giving builders another way to issue and manage tokenized assets.
then came Meridian / IIP-701, which is now live and pushed Injective further toward institutional-grade tokenization.
most importantly ETF story also kept moving
@21shares filed an updated S-1/A for its proposed Injective ETF, while Canary Capital filed another amendment for its Canary Staked INJ ETF.
On the adoption side:
✦ Native Injective USDC keeps expanding
✦ INJ went live on @solana
✦ Raydium + Phantom access
✦ 8,000+ merchants through Bitrefill
✦ 180+ countries
✦ 650ms settlement
and Stockdrop added a new twist to the BuyBack
Commit INJ ➾ earn ecosystem revenue ➾ INJ gets burned ➾ chance to receive tokenized stocks.
even real world data is starting to come onchain, with the motocross pilot showing another use case outside traditional finance.
DeFi + RWA + Tokenization + Stablecoins + Payments + AI + Institutions.
thats what makes September interesting
it was not just about the $INJ price
Injective kept building and the numbers are starting to show it 🥷
Huge day tomorrow.
Nearly $300,000 worth of $INJ will be bought back and burned forever. Loyal users of Injective will have a chance to earn onchain stock tokens for the first time for participating in the INJ buyback.
Injective is quietly becoming one of the most important RWA chains in crypto. 🔥
Right now, the total RWA market cap 𝗮𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝟯𝟱 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀 sits at $46 billion... @injective already holds $1.1 billion of that (good for a solid 2.3% market share).
Pineapple Financial has already moved over $1 billion in real residential mortgage records onchain via #injective.
and they’re just getting started...
their stated target is to bring their entire historical portfolio of 29,000+ funded mortgages.. worth more than $10 billion (fully onchain).
That’s not a narrative.
that’s a real NYSE-listed company systematically migrating real assets onto injective.
From $1.1B → $10B+
➮ Same chain
➮ Same infrastructure
➮ Same institutional partner that’s also running a $100M INJ treasury.
Maybe it’s time to stop asking whether injective is serious about RWAs... and start asking how far this can actually go.
Canary's staked $INJ ETF is moving closer to launch, and it aims to stake at least 90% of its holdings.
Traditional finance meets on-chain yield, and @injective is right in the middle of it.
Sunayna Tuteja (@Sunayna), former Chief Innovation Officer of the Federal Reserve, is speaking at Injective’s KBW event.
From the @federalreserve, she brings a unique perspective on regulated digital assets and tokenization.
yo @injective fam
the institutional access story for injective-protocol:native is getting pretty interesting.
there are already regulated products live, while multiple US ETF structures are moving through the SEC.
read more below:
BREAKING: Canary capital just filed Amendment No. 3 for its Canary Staked $INJ ETF with the SEC and this update makes the structure even more interesting.
the proposed ETF would
➥ Hold spot $INJ
➥ Trade on Cboe BZX under the proposed ticker INJS
➥ Target at least 90% of the fund’s INJ to be staked under normal circumstances
➥ Give investors exposure to INJ while the fund participates in Injective’s staking ecosystem
that last part is what makes this different from a simple spot product.
Instead of just holding INJ the proposed structure is designed to generate additional INJ through staking rewards.
and look at how far the institutional story has already moved..
Europe ➾ $INJ ETP Live
USA ➾ Regulated INJ Futures Live, 21Shares Amended $INJ ETF Filing, and Canary Amendment No. 3 for Staked INJ ETF
this is no longer just about crypto native access.
its about building regulated paths for traditional investors to get exposure to Injective and its native asset.
An approved Staked INJ ETF could potentially bring more institutional access, more market visibility, and potentially more INJ into the staking ecosystem.
we not at approval yet, but INJ is getting closer and closer to having a spot + staking product in the U.S.
and honestly…
the ETF story is getting very real…
Full SEC filing ⚶
