Injective launches the INJ Supply Squeeze: doubling the token's deflation

Injective, the layer-1 blockchain designed for finance, has announced a significant breakthrough in its monetary structure: the introduction of the INJ - $4.505 Supply Squeeze. This initiative, officially communicated on January 20, 2026, in New York, marks a permanent acceleration in the reduction of the native INJ - $4.505 token supply, effectively doubling the deflation rate and reinforcing scarcity as a fundamental characteristic of the asset. The INJ - $4.505 Supply Squeeze represents a structural update that ushers the INJ - $4.505 token into a new deflationary phase. The mechanism operates on two fronts: on one hand, it tightens the issuance dynamics; on the other, it works in synergy with the already existing Injective Community BuyBack. The goal is twofold: to reduce the issuance of new tokens and to continue regularly burning those already in circulation, thereby consolidating a long-term supply contraction.
