Injective has published a new whitepaper that frames the network as a Layer 1 built for institutional finance and asset tokenization. The document lays out a full lifecycle for tokenized assets, from issuance and trading to settlement, and details a native real-world asset tokenization framework with role-based controls over minting, sending, receiving, and burning. It also introduces iAssets, a derivatives model designed to track external assets through stablecoin margin and oracle pricing, without wrappers or pre-funding.
The whitepaper says tokenized assets trade on a fully onchain central limit order book. Each block uses a sealed, high-frequency batch auction and clears at a uniform price, a design aimed at reducing frontrunning and transaction-ordering MEV. Injective also highlights BFT consensus for deterministic finality, with block times of about 600 milliseconds. Beyond market structure, the paper covers native EVM and WASM that share the same state, risk management for perpetual contracts, and AI agent finance. Under that framework, agents can interact with tokenized assets through MCP servers, policy-constrained signing, and x402 machine payments settled in USDC. The whitepaper adds that onchain protocol revenue will be directed to periodic INJ community buybacks.
Injective has released a new whitepaper that positions the network as a Layer 1 for institutional finance and asset tokenization, covering the full lifecycle of tokenized assets from issuance and trading to settlement.
According to the document, its native real-world asset, or RWA, tokenization mechanism allows role-based permissions for minting, sending, receiving, and burning. It also describes iAssets, which use stablecoin margin and oracle-based pricing to offer derivatives that track external assets without wrappers or pre-funding.
Trading model and settlement design
Tokenized assets trade on a fully onchain central limit order book. Each block uses a sealed, high-frequency batch auction and settles at a uniform clearing price, a structure the whitepaper says is meant to resist frontrunning and transaction-ordering MEV. On consensus, Injective says its BFT model provides deterministic finality, with block times of about 600 milliseconds.
Other areas covered in the whitepaper
The new whitepaper also covers native EVM and WASM sharing the same state, risk management for perpetual contracts, and AI agent finance. Under that setup, agents can operate tokenized assets through MCP servers, policy-constrained signing, and x402 machine payments made in USDC.
The whitepaper says onchain protocol revenue will flow to periodic INJ community buybacks.
