XION Integrates Injective as the First Blockchain for its Chain Abstraction Layer

Today, XION announces its integration with Injective, marking a major milestone in bringing chain abstraction into the Injective ecosystem.

As a blockchain purpose-built for mainstream adoption, XION’s Chain Abstraction enhances blockchain usability by seamlessly connecting users, apps, and liquidity across ecosystems, allowing XION to serve as an extension to all major blockchain networks.

This integration sets the stage for new users to onboard onto Injective and utilize the strength of the Injective network, without any friction points of entry, helping to push Injective further towards mass adoption.

What is XION?

XION is the first layer one blockchain purpose-built for consumer adoption through crypto abstraction. Utilizing protocol-level implementations related to abstracted accounts, signatures, fees, interoperability, and more, XION enables secure, intuitive, and seamless user experiences.

XION aims to make Web3 easier to navigate for all users by abstracting away its inherent complexities. Through familiar Web2 methods like email, users can onboard onto XION, creating an account that seamlessly interacts with any application across any device, including desktop and mobile. Users can also enjoy a frictionless experience without the concerns associated with blockchain technology, such as gas fees, providing an accessible interface reminiscent of traditional Web2 platforms.

Mass Adoption for the Injective Ecosystem

The integration will enable the seamless flow of users and assets throughout both ecosystems, enhancing liquidity and in turn creating a variety of novel cross-ecosystem use-cases.

The first dApp to be available on XION through this integration is Talis, the premier NFT marketplace built on Injective. Any user (within Cosmos, Ethereum, Solana or beyond), will be able to create an account on XION and begin using Talis instantly, without needing to grapple with complexities such as cross-chain bridging, browser plugins, seed phrases, gas fees, and transaction signing.

“Just like the internet, users shouldn’t need to know which infrastructure applications they are using are built on. All that matters is that it works,” said Burnt Banksy, a core contributor to XION. He added, “We’re proud to launch Chain Abstraction as it vastly accelerates XION’s impact in making Web3 accessible to all users.”

A New Future of Chain Abstraction

As XION's expansion unfolds, an increasing array of Injective ecosystem dApps will become accessible to users through XION’s Chain Abstraction. This breakthrough enables non-crypto-native users to seamlessly onboard powerful on-chain applications and leverage trailblazing technology, without grappling with the complexities inherent in Web3 finance.

This integration not only propels Injective closer to mass adoption but also streamlines onboarding for non-crypto natives, advancing the mission to democratize finance through decentralization.
