Injective vs Near

Two best protocols in my opinion, let's start with Injective 🠗

📌ARCHITECTURE

🔹 $INJ

▪ Layer-1 blockchain built on Cosmos SDK with Tendermint consensus.
Specialized for DeFi (decentralized exchanges, derivatives, prediction markets).

▪ RWA accessibility, you can trade commodities like (Oil, stocks, gold, silver  ect.) with no governance.

▪ Features cross-chain bridges (Ethereum, Solana, Cosmos IBC) and a decentralized order book.

▪ Optimized for high-throughput trading.

🔹 $NEAR

▪ Sharded, proof-of-stake Layer-1 using Nightshade sharding.

▪ Focuses on scalability and usability for dApps (DeFi, NFTs, gaming).

▪ Dynamic resharding adjusts to network demand.

▪ Human-readable addresses and WASM-based smart contracts (Rust/AssemblyScript).

---------------------------------------------------------

📌TOKENOMICS

🔹 $INJ

▪ Max Supply - 100.000.000 $INJ (deflationary)

🔹 $NEAR

▪ Max Supply - XXXXXXXXXXXXX $NEAR (inflationary)

---------------------------------------------------------

📌 SCALABILITY

🔹 $INJ

▪ 1-second block time, ~10,000 TPS.
▪ Low fees ($0.01–$0.05 per swap).

🔹 $NEAR

▪ Sub-2-second finality, scales to 100,000+ TPS via sharding.
▪ Ultra-low fees ($0.01 per transaction).

---------------------------------------------------------

📌CONCLUSION

What conclusion can be drawn from this:

🔹 Choose $INJ
You prioritize high-performance DeFi trading, cross-chain interoperability, and deflationary tokenomics. Ideal for traders and DeFi developers.

🔹 Choose $NEAR

You need scalability for mass-market dApps (gaming, social, NFTs), low fees, and developer accessibility. Suited for Web2 onboarding.

They are both truly great protocols ever, And what's your take on this btw?
