If you’re building a DeFi portfolio, I think @injective definitely deserves a spot. It’s built on the Cosmos stack, which means it can connect to a bunch of other chains through IBC that’s the inter-blockchain communication protocol.
And the testnet of Ethereum or ERC-20 tokens is now here.
It can bring in stuff from Cosmos, Solana, BNB Chain, even Kronos, and a bunch more that already run on IBC.
It’s got an actual DeFi suite. You can do token swaps, provide liquidity, lend and borrow, even trade perpetuals on their orderbook exchange.

Injective is a lightning-fast blockchain optimized for decentralized finance and trading.
@injective supports fully on-chain spot and derivatives markets, offering orderbook-based execution, real-time settlement, and zero gas fees for users.
Designed from the ground up for finance, Injective combines powerful trading infrastructure with seamless cross-chain functionality—connecting major layer-1s into one unified DeFi hub.
Since launch, Injective has surpassed $10 billion in total volume, driving innovation across DeFi apps, protocols, and interoperable ecosystems.
