This development marks a novel approach to integrating staking rewards into ETF structures, potentially setting a precedent for other crypto funds and increasing demand for INJ tokens.
- Canary Capital's ETF will stake most INJ tokens to earn rewards.
- Rewards will be reinvested to increase INJ backing per share.
- Fund maintains liquidity reserve for redemptions and unbonding periods.
- INJ price down 7.79% in 24 hours amid broader market decline.
Canary Capital has announced a new structure for its 
Injective (INJ) ETF that will integrate staking rewards into the fund's operations. The firm plans to stake most of the INJ tokens held by the ETF to generate additional returns for investors.
The staking rewards will be reinvested into the fund, increasing the amount of INJ backing each share. This approach aims to enhance the fund's value over time by leveraging the staking mechanism inherent to the Injective protocol.
To manage the 21-day unbonding period required for unstaking INJ tokens and to ensure liquidity for redemptions, the fund will maintain a reserve of liquid assets. This reserve will help mitigate potential risks associated with the unbonding process.
The announcement comes as the broader crypto market experiences a downturn, with 
Bitcoin down 3.14% in the last 24 hours and the overall market cap at $2.81 trillion. Injective's native token, INJ, has also seen a decline of 7.79% in the same period, although it has gained 13.14% over the past week.
The integration of staking rewards into an ETF structure is a novel approach that could set a precedent for other crypto funds. It highlights the growing sophistication of crypto investment products and the increasing adoption of staking as a means of generating returns.
Since this brief published about 2 hours ago, Injective (INJ) has moved from ₹762.43$8.06 to ₹752.02$7.95 — -1.36%.

At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 INJ ≈ ₹829.58 (about $7.95), down 8.9% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 10.3% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
