Injective has introduced a new governance proposal, IIP-701, for the Meridian Mainnet Upgrade. The goal is to make Injective a stronger Layer-1 for tokenization and on chain finance. Here’s what’s coming with the upgrade: > Institutional Grade RWA Issuance Large companies and institutions will be able to tokenize real-world assets like stocks and bonds directly on Injective in a legally compliant way. > Native On Chain Privacy Built-in privacy features will give users more privacy for transactions and trading on the chain. > Unified RFQ Perp Markets Institutional-style RFQ trading will be integrated with perpetual futures markets, which could improve liquidity and execution. > More Utility for $INJ With more activity and new use cases on the network, $INJ will have an even bigger role within the ecosystem. What happens now? $INJ stakers can vote on the proposal. If the proposal passes, the Meridian upgrade will be implemented. Injective is continuing to strengthen its infrastructure for finance and tokenization, and Meridian looks like another major step in that direction.
