May Update: A Focus on New Integrations and Community
     

May has been a busy month with a number of major integration rollouts for Injective. The Injective ecosystem was also expanded in an effort to continue broadening the community.

For a recap of May, check out this highlight reel.


  1. Injective Announces Partnership with Wormhole

Injective is partnering with Wormhole to bring 10 new blockchains to its already interoperable network. With this integration, Injective will have one of the highest number of cross chain connections out of any blockchain.

Injective is natively able to connect to Ethereum, Cosmos, and a number of other IBC-enabled chains. This new collaboration with Wormhole will position Injective into becoming the primary gateway for cross-chain native assets from Solana and other prominent Layer 1 chains to enter the Cosmos universe.

The collaboration received major press coverage across the crypto universe. You can check out the features on CoinDesk, Blockworks, and much more.


2. Injective Integrates Keplr Wallet

Keplr Wallet is now connected to Injective!

Assets stored on Keplr can easily be used on any Injective dApp, and users can authorize transactions directly from their wallet to have the trust of full ownership.


3. Trading Guilds Consortium

Injective Labs released Trading Guilds to the larger developer community to allow for open source collaboration to occur.

A cohort of Injective’s partners and ecosystem collaborators will be adopting the open-sourced trading guild repositories over the coming weeks to launch unique product offerings that were not previously possible within crypto for their communities.

5. New IBC Bridges Supported on Injective

Injective launched two new IBC bridges in May: Persistence and EVMOS.

New bridges benefit both users and developers within DeFi. Users are able to take assets built on other blockchains and utilize them within Injective, which provides more use cases for the digital assets. In addition, Developers are able to open up their applications to larger audiences, creating more adoption opportunities.

Injective is driving the future of finance, and the newest integrations and broadening of the community sets the foundation for this future to occur.
