Canary’s INJC fund began trading with built-in staking and $16.12 million in assets after Injective’s CEO rang the Nasdaq bell. Injective (INJ) is trading at ₹750 ($7.97), down 0.3% since this brief published. This is an original Token Times brief based on reporting by Crypto.news, with live market data added, as of Mon, 09 Nov 2026 11:00:01 UTC.

Why it matters

The launch gives investors a listed avenue for INJ exposure while incorporating staking into the product structure. Its early asset base and broader market conditions provide the first measured context for the new fund.

Key takeaways
  • Canary’s INJC staked Injective ETF began trading on Nasdaq on Nov. 5
  • The fund held $16.12 million in assets by Friday
  • INJ traded at $7.99, down 2.06% over 24 hours
  • INJ gained 10.43% over seven days amid broad market weakness

Injective’s CEO rang the Nasdaq bell as Canary’s INJC staked Injective ETF started trading on Nov. 5, according to Crypto.news. The launch combines listed access to Injective with staking functionality built into the product, marking a notable step for the network’s token within a traditional exchange-listed fund structure.

By Friday, the ETF held $16.12 million in assets and had 600,000 shares outstanding, Crypto.news reported. The available figures establish the fund’s initial reported scale, although the summary did not provide trading volume, share-price performance, fees, or the amount of INJ held or staked through the vehicle.

Canary’s product is specifically structured as a staked Injective ETF rather than a conventional ETF without staking. Its Nasdaq debut also follows a period in which INJ has performed differently from the wider crypto market: the token rose 10.43% over seven days even as the broader market was broadly lower. Future assets, share counts, and the size of any staking activity were not included in the supplied report.

Live market data showed INJ at $7.99, down 2.06% over 24 hours, with a market capitalization of $798.56 million. The total crypto market capitalization stood at $2.56T, while Bitcoin was down 1.62% over the same 24-hour period. The Fear & Greed index registered 29, placing sentiment in the “Fear” zone despite INJ’s positive seven-day result. The figures to monitor are the ETF’s subsequent asset and share growth alongside how INJ and the broader market move from this mixed backdrop.

At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 INJ ≈ ₹796.88 (about $7.97), down 2.8% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 6.3% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
