🚀 My crypto-friends, yesterday we discussed how Pineapple Financial hit $100M in INJ, creating the first public digital asset treasury 🏦 (👉here is the link to post №2).
Today — the next level: imagine buying INJ not through a crypto exchange, but directly in a brokerage app next to Apple or Tesla stocks. This will soon be a reality — Injective is launching an ETF in the USA! 📈
This is not just a financial instrument, but a genuine bridge between the traditional market (TradFi) and DeFi, allowing institutions and regular users to invest in INJ without wallets, seed phrases, and complex KYC on exchanges.
What is an ETF? In simple terms — it's a fund that trades on an exchange like a regular stock. You buy a share (a piece) of the fund, and it holds real assets — in our case, $INJ.
Advantages? 24/7 liquidity, SEC regulatory protection, tax simplifications, and no headaches with custody (storage). For Injective, this means an influx of billions of dollars: pension funds, hedge funds, and millions of retail investors will gain direct access to INJ growth.
On X, it's already buzzing: 'INJ ETF = BTC ETF 2.0, but with real DeFi use.' And it's not an exaggeration — after all, INJ is not just a meme coin, but a utility of the L1 chain with 25,000 TPS, staking up to 12% APY, and RWA integrations.
Why now? Because the SEC, after approving BTC and ETH ETFs, is opening the door for the 'next generation' — assets with real utility. Injective fits perfectly:
Regulatory clarity — the team is collaborating with top lawyers to meet all requirements;
Institutional readiness — Kraken is already a validator, Pineapple holds INJ, and the ETF will add another layer of trust;
Mass adoption — imagine a grandma buying INJ through Fidelity or Robinhood.
According to data from the official Injective blog, the ETF will be launched through a partner listing on NASDAQ or NYSE. This is not speculation — it's a fact confirmed by the team. And for you, this means: growth in TVL, price stability $INJ and new opportunities for arbitrage between the spot market and ETF premium.
Plus, do you remember yesterday's staking from Pineapple? ETF investors will also be able to earn income through synthetic products that reflect real yield.
But what about the risks? Yes, the ETF does not provide direct access to staking, but this is compensated by liquidity and protection. For the advanced — combine: keep part in the ETF, part in a wallet for maximum income.
@Injective on Binance Square is already announcing a roadmap — follow #Injective and $INJ , because this is your ticket to the future.
