The Injective EVM Public Testnet is Now Live: Welcome to the Fastest Unified Layer for Finance

Injective is proud to unveil its groundbreaking EVM Testnet, a major milestone in the evolution of onchain finance. This release introduces a truly native Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) environment embedded directly into Injective’s blazing-fast Layer 1 blockchain. It offers developers and users alike a seamless gateway into a fully unified smart contract experience with unparalleled performance, composability, and usability.

The result is a unified portal where any developer can build and deploy at unmatched speeds and where users can access onchain applications with zero friction. This is not just EVM compatibility. It is the beginning of a new era for decentralized finance where performance meets composability in a single system. A platform where tokenized assets, AI-powered protocols, and permissionless financial infrastructure can be created, accessed, and used by anyone in the world.

Injective: The Chain Built for Onchain Finance

Injective is purpose-built to become the home for the global onchain economy. From tokenized stocks and commodities to real world assets and decentralized derivatives, the chain is engineered to support every asset class and financial primitive. This vision is already becoming reality. For instance, Injective is now the largest chain for tokenized stocks, commodities, FX and more, introducing major RWAs such as onchain Oil, Nvidia and Euros.

With the launch of its native EVM, Injective enables any developer to bring the world’s financial infrastructure onchain. It provides the tools to create complex asset products, next-generation trading systems, and autonomous AI agents, all while delivering a frictionless experience for end users. This is the foundation for a radically open financial system, where anyone can build and everyone can participate.

An Unmatched Native EVM

Unlike bolted-on EVMs that rely on bridging or external layers, Injective’s EVM is natively embedded at the core of the chain. This unlocks a host of advantages:

Massive Throughput: The system can scale to 20,000 transactions per second through advanced account abstraction and parallelization.
Unified Access: Developers use familiar Ethereum tools like Solidity, Foundry, and MetaMask while gaining access to Injective’s native financial modules.
Superior UX: Account abstraction allows gasless and signless interactions, eliminating one of the most persistent frictions in Web3.
AI-Optimized: Injective’s infrastructure supports real-time onchain inference, making it the ideal execution layer for DeFi agents and intelligent dApps.

Early benchmarks have already shown Injective outperforming leading EVM alternatives by more than 400 percent in mainnet-equivalent environments. But performance is just the beginning.

MultiVM: A Unified Development Environment

Injective’s MultiVM architecture allows smart contracts across different virtual machines to coexist, interact, and compose in a single runtime. EVM and WASM contracts can share state and assets through the MultiVM Token Standard (MTS), which removes the need for bridges or token duplication entirely.

This unification means that developers no longer have to choose between performance and compatibility. A dApp can be built using Solidity while leveraging Injective’s advanced modules like the central limit orderbook or frequent batch auctions. It can call into WASM contracts, use WASM-based governance, or deploy logic that bridges both environments by default. Everything becomes interoperable by design.

As Injective continues to break down barriers for builders, platforms like iBuild (an upcoming no-code smart contract creation interface) will make onchain development even more accessible. Unveiled at the first Injective Summit alongside prominent leaders like New York City Mayor Eric Adams, iBuild is part of the broader mission to ensure that anyone, regardless of technical background, can launch and scale on Injective.

Explore the Ecosystem: Build, Trade and Earn

The EVM Testnet Portal already showcases a diverse group of projects leading the next generation of decentralized applications on Injective:

Pumex – An advanced DeFi protocol combining automated market making with yield maximization strategies.
Borderless – A platform enabling permissionless trading across chains, with a focus on pre-TGE token markets.
Yei Finance – Offers leveraged yield farming and undercollateralized loans, enhancing capital efficiency.
Meowtrade – A social trading platform with Discord-native execution and strategy sharing.
Lair Finance – Provides liquid restaking solutions with cross-chain functionality via LRTs.
Stryke – Brings options trading onchain with low-collateral, capital-efficient primitives.
Timeswap v2 – The first oracleless, fixed-term lending AMM built entirely without liquidation risks.
Accumulated Finance – A yield optimization protocol that intelligently reallocates assets across the DeFi stack.
Bondi Finance – Makes sovereign bonds and real world assets accessible to Web3 users globally.
Orbiter Finance – A fast, low-cost cross-rollup bridge supporting major Ethereum L2 networks.

Each project is a testament to what becomes possible when speed, modularity, and true composability converge. This is just the start with a flurry of new projects set to arrive on Injective before mainnet later this year.

The most compelling way to understand Injective’s vision is to experience these applications firsthand. Every project on the portal is live and ready to use on the testnet, offering users the chance to explore, trade, stake, and interact directly with some of the most innovative protocols in Web3. This is your front row seat to the future of finance.

Getting Started is Instant

Joining the Injective EVM testnet is simple and seamless. You can get started directly through the testnet portal with no wallet setup complexity required.

A New Paradigm for Finance Begins

The EVM Testnet Portal is now open to all. Developers can begin deploying with Solidity, users can explore dApps without friction, and protocols can push the boundaries of what’s possible in onchain finance. And most importantly, the feedback from all of you will play an instrumental role in us creating the best mainnet possible. So leave any and all comments across Injective socials, interact with us via Discord and give us any and all feedback to make this already amazing experience better than ever!

Injective is years ahead of the curve, offering not only the fastest and most secure EVM environment in Web3, but also the most visionary. Through a combination of native modules, MultiVM interoperability, and frictionless onboarding, Injective empowers a global generation of builders to redefine how finance works.

There are no barriers. No limits. The future starts here. The future starts on Injective.
