November 9, 2025 – In a decisive show of community confidence, the Injective Altria Mainnet Upgrade Proposal (IIP-583) has passed with overwhelming support from $INJ stakers, setting the stage for the network’s most significant evolution to date, a fully permissionless Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) mainnet. The upgrade, slated to go live on November 11, 2025, marks a new chapter for Injective, the Layer-1 blockchain purpose-built for decentralized finance (DeFi), promising real-time transaction speeds, instant finality, and full Ethereum interoperability.
The governance vote ended on November 8, with strong staker turnout showing clear faith in Injective’s next evolution.
Major partners such as The Graph and RocketX confirmed post-launch support, while developers and DeFi builders filled X with anticipation.
Market sentiment reflected the excitement. $INJ traded around $7.81, holding multi-year support as traders priced in the upgrade’s impact.
“Everything changes forever in five days,” Injective posted, counting down to what could be one of Web3’s most transformative EVM launches.
Analysts expect Altria’s rollout to draw both institutional and retail inflows, as developers tap into Injective’s hallmark speed, low fees, and composability.
At the core of the Altria upgrade is Unified MultiVM Execution, a breakthrough that lets WASM and EVM smart contracts run together in one runtime.
This setup allows assets, liquidity, and state to move seamlessly across environments. It removes the need for external bridges, cutting fragmentation and boosting cross-ecosystem security.
Injective also revamped its EVM economics with the EIP-1559 DynamicFeeTx integration. This update brings predictable gas fees and deterministic execution, aligning with Ethereum’s latest standards.
The network now operates on Geth v1.16.3, improving performance and syncing perfectly with Ethereum’s developer tools.
The exchange module also received major upgrades. Features like subaccount offsetting, open notional caps, and dynamic position limits give traders refined risk-management controls.
Together, these upgrades underline Injective’s focus on institutional-grade DeFi infrastructure built for precision and speed.

With Altria’s mainnet going live on November 11, Injective officially enters a fully permissionless EVM era.
Any developer can now deploy smart contracts instantly, no approvals needed.
By merging Ethereum compatibility with Injective’s sub-second block times, the network positions itself as a core hub for DeFi, real-world assets (RWAs), and AI-powered financial applications.
As the Injective Foundation summarized:
“Altria activates full public EVM access, creating a frictionless, composable environment across ecosystems.”
With DeFi TVL surpassing $200 billion globally and Injective’s multi-chain expansion accelerating, the Altria upgrade may prove a watershed moment for Web3 scalability and open finance.
Real voices. Real reactions.
@injective Bullish for the new era 🥂
@injective the blockchain ecosystem is not ready yet! 2026 is the year for $INJ
