Injective stated that it has submitted a transfer agent registration application to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The transfer agent is responsible for maintaining the official ownership records of securities and handling transfer changes, a function typically maintained by specialized institutions off-chain in traditional markets.This application aims to migrate this core market function on-chain, allowing the tokens themselves to serve as ownership records, thereby enabling the registration and transfer of tokenized securities to be completed in seconds and reducing intermediary verification steps.

According to official news, Agora announced that starting from April 3, 2026, it will gradually stop the issuance and support of AUSD on the Injective network. According to the latest adjustments, no new AUSD will be minted on Injective from today, and AUSD held on this network will no longer earn any rewards. However, users can still redeem AUSD at a 1:1 value, and the redemption window will last until September 28, 2026. This adjustment only applies to the Injective network and does not affect the operation of AUSD on other chains.Regarding the redemption process, Agora stated that its clients can complete the operation through their account contacts. Users only need to send AUSD on Injective to the official channel, and the platform will assist in converting it to AUSD on the user-specified chain or exchanging it for US dollars and other supported stablecoins. The official emphasized that September 28, 2026, is the standard redemption deadline, and after that, remaining assets can still be processed, but may require additional KYC verification processes and related fees.Agora pointed out that this decision stems from its regular evaluation mechanism for multi-chain deployment, with key considerations including actual usage, ecosystem health, and infrastructure costs. After a comprehensive assessment, Agora decided to strategically shrink the AUSD business on the Injective network to optimize resource allocation and improve overall operational efficiency.

Layer 1 blockchain Injective announced that it will support the native issuance of USDC and integrate the cross-chain transfer protocol (CCTP) developed by Circle, allowing USDC to be directly transferred between supported blockchains.This integration will enable USDC to be natively issued on Injective, rather than through a bridged version, allowing users to transfer USDC between Injective and other networks without relying on wrapped assets or third-party bridges. CCTP reduces bridging-related risks by destroying USDC on the source chain and minting an equivalent amount of USDC on the target chain.

White hat hacker f4lc0n posted on the X platform revealing that he discovered a "critical" vulnerability in the Injective protocol that could lead to over $500 million in assets being directly withdrawn from the blockchain.

After submitting a report through Immunefi, the Injective team initiated a mainnet upgrade vote the next day to fix the vulnerability, but they were "unreachable" for the following three months.Currently, f4lc0n has disputed the amount of the bounty and stated that the $50,000 bounty has not yet been paid. He announced that he will allocate 10% of future bug bounty earnings to continue publicizing this matter until Injective pays the compensation as per the standard.
