 <p>In response to this data, the Injective team promised that half of all available tokens would be staked soon.</p>
 <p>In a comment to the post, cryptocurrency expert and influencer Muhmmad Azhar emphasized that the growth of INJ’s share in staking is a remarkable phenomenon, marking a turning point in the decentralization of the network. If the protocol crosses the 50% staked mark, the implications for token holders and the ecosystem’s security will be profound.</p>

 <p>Last week, Injective released a&nbsp;major mainnet update called Volan. It aims to improve scalability and compatibility and also contains many additional improvements.</p>
 <p>The developers consider this one of the most monumental updates in the project’s history. With multiple improvements, the number of users is expected to increase, and the development of the Injective ecosystem will significantly accelerate.</p>
 <p>In addition, The Hong Kong Virtual Asset Rating Agency (HKVAC) has included INJ in the new list following index adjustments. HKVAC&nbsp;rates digital asset trading platforms and crypto market indexes and is a significant barometer of the ongoing shifts in the crypto market.</p>
