Hello bros, if you've heard about cryptocurrencies or, generally speaking, blockchains, then the name Injective and, of course, its token INJ should have crossed your mind.
It is something more than a token in crypto. But what actually is INJ? What for is it used? How to use it, and where to buy it? In this article, I will tell you everything about the INJ token: how it works and how one can use it.
I'll try to explain all this as simply and clearly as possible, so that the most uninformed of people on this subject will actually find it really easy to get into.
Let's get started

Okay bros, before we dive into the details of the INJ token, let's take a quick look at what Injective is, if you want to know more details, then welcome to my channel as the saying goes.
Injective is a layer-1 blockchain tailor-made for financial applications, with great speed and very minimal fees, making it one of the best places to trade, do some decentralized finance, stake, or whatever else in finance.
Injective is concerned with providing a transparent, yet completely decentralized, platform with the capability to trade and manage your assets without intermediaries. Of course, you are at the helm of your finances.
Now, the very important core of all this ecosystem: the INJ token.
INJ is the main token of the Injective blockchain. It performs many functions within the network and is an important element of the entire Injective ecosystem.
When we talk about the INJ token, it is worth understanding that it is not just a cryptocurrency that can be bought or sold. It is a powerful tool that powers many Injective-based services and applications.
Now that we know what INJ is, let's break down what it's for and what tasks it accomplishes in the Injective ecosystem.
1 - Participate in Network Governance
One of the key functions of the INJ token is to participate in network governance. By owning an INJ, users can vote on various proposals that relate to the improvement and development of the Injective network. These proposals can include protocol changes, smart contract updates, or launching new projects within the ecosystem. The more tokens a user has, the more weight their vote carries. In this way, INJ allows users to directly influence the future development of the Injective platform.
2 - Staking
The second important function of INJ is staking. In the Injective ecosystem, users can “staking” their INJ tokens by providing them to secure the network and receive rewards in return. Steaking is the process of locking up your tokens to keep the blockchain running and earning rewards. This is one of the most popular ways to use INJ as it allows you to earn passive income simply for owning tokens.
3 - Providing Liquidity
INJ tokens can be used to provide liquidity on various decentralized exchanges (DEX) powered by Injective. This means that users can add their tokens to liquidity pools and receive commissions on every transaction made in those pools. This is a great way to increase your income by participating in decentralized trading.
4 - Use in derivatives trading
Injective allows users to trade not only cryptocurrencies, but also various derivatives - derivative financial instruments. INJ tokens can be used to settle contracts on futures, options and other complex financial instruments. This opens up huge opportunities for more advanced traders who want to use the token for complex trading strategies.
5 - Payment of commissions
In the Injective ecosystem, transaction fees and other fees are also paid for with INJ tokens. This makes the token not only an investment tool, but also essential for day-to-day operations within the network.
By now, we already know what INJ is for; let's see how one can use it in real life. There are quite a lot of ways to use INJ, and everybody can find something interesting for them.
As I mentioned before, staking is one of the most popular ways to use INJ tokens. Here's how it works:
Create a wallet: First, you need a wallet that can support the INJ tokens. The most used wallet is Keplr/Leap or Ninji Wallet.
Transfer INJ to the wallet: Once you have created a wallet, you need to transfer INJ tokens into it.
Choose validator: There are a lot of validators in the Injective ecosystem-in other words, members of the network that keep it secure. You have to choose the validator with whom you will entrust your tokens for steaking.
Stake tokens: stake your INJ token in staking and start earning rewards.
The reward in staking depends on the amount of tokens blocked and also the conditions proposed by the validator.
If you want to contribute to decision-making when it comes to the development of the Injective ecosystem, then you have a right to vote with your INJ tokens. To do so:
Open Governance via Injective.
View active proposals. These may be suggestions of network improvements, changed protocols, and/or new projects being launched.
Vote for or against proposals using your INJ tokens. The more tokens you have in your account, the more weight your vote carries.
Voting is a great way not just to be a passive user but to really participate in the development of the network.
If you want to use INJ for trading, then Injective provides a host of decentralized exchanges with which to buy and sell tokens. The most-used exchange in the world is called Helix and is powered by Injective.
The following are steps to start trading:
Create a wallet: You'll need a wallet supporting the INJ, such as MetaMask or Keplr.
Connect to the exchange: Go onto Helix and connect your wallet.
Choose a trading pair: INJ can be traded for different cryptocurrencies, including but not limited to USDT and ETH.
Place order: You may choose to place a limit order in which you can specify the exact price at which you want to buy or sell, or a market order whereby the trade gets executed instantly at the current market price.
Trading on DEX gives you complete freedom: you can participate in liquidity, create your own strategies, and take full advantage of decentralized exchanges.
Now let's discuss how you can buy an INJ token. You can do it in several ways: on centralized exchanges, decentralized exchanges, and even for fiat.
Centralized Exchanges
The most popular centralized exchanges where you can buy INJ include:
Binance - This is one of the biggest exchanges all over the world. You can find many trading pairs there, including INJ.
Coinbase - a convenient exchange where you can buy INJ for fiat money.
Another popular exchange that supports INJ with relatively low commissions is Kraken.
ByBit/OKX etc.
To buy INJ on these exchanges, one will need to be signed up, verified, deposit some balance, and select a trading pair with INJ.
If you would prefer to trade in a decentralized way, then the following DEXes have INJ: Helix-as I said above, the basic decentralized exchange based on Injective.
You will need to connect a wallet, such as a Ninji wallet, for trading on this particular DEX and have some funds in your account to cover gas.
Recently the ability to buy INJ with fiat has been made much easier through integrations with Mercuryo, Payfura, Transak and Kado. Users can now buy INJ directly with fiat money such as dollars, euros etc.
Here's how this works:
Mercuryo: If a user wants to buy INJ using Mercuryo, he needs to select the desired option on the Mercuryo website and pay using his bank card or other ways of payment.
Transak: That is another popular fiat gateway. Just proceed to Transak, select INJ, and follow the purchase instructions.
Payfura and Kado: Both of these are also supporting buying options for INJ with fiat. You can choose an appropriate payment option and purchase tokens in a very fast way.
Integration with these services makes access to INJ tokens pretty easy, especially for those who prefer bank cards or other traditional methods of paying for goods.
The integration of Mercuryo was one of the major integrations that happened within the Injective ecosystem.
Users are now able to purchase and sell INJ for fiat money through this gateway. Mercuryo is a leading platform used for buying cryptocurrencies with fiat money, so integrating it into Injective surely makes it easier and handier to buy INJ tokens.
The process of buying via Mercuryo consists of a few easy steps:
Select the INJ on the Mercuryo platform.
Choose the amount you would like to purchase in.
Select one of the purchase options: bank card or other.
Confirm your purchase and receive your INJ tokens in your wallet immediately.
Thus, a new user can join Injective easily and immediately start using his INJ token for trading or staking or voting on proposals submitted to network management.
Therefore, what we've learned from the whole article is that most likely the INJ token is a mighty tool for participation in network management, passive income generation by staking, trading on decentralized exchanges, and making liquidity.
Of course, we also learned that it's possible to buy not only by using exchanges and cryptocurrencies but also for fiat with the recent integration with Mercuryo, as well as Payfura, Transak, and Kado.
Well, brothers, I hope this article helped you to understand better how to use the INJ and why this token is so important to the Injective ecosystem.
Don't forget to mint this article if it was of any use to you. Thanks everyone, bye!
