Participants get access to Microsoft\u2019s Azure AI services, Injective\u2019s proprietary development tools, and financial backing that includes grants exceeding $10,000.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad-banner leaderboard-in-article cb-deferred-ad cb-block14-wrap\">\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p><template\/><\/div>\n<p>For projects that really stand out, the Injective Foundation is offering potential venture capital investments reaching up to $1 million. The program was first unveiled at the Hong Kong Web3 Festival earlier this year. Now the Token2049 side event serves as its next major public-facing moment.<\/p>\n<h2>Agentic commerce, explained<\/h2>\n<p>Injective has been building infrastructure specifically for this use case. Its platform now includes onchain identity capabilities through ERC-8004, a standard that gives AI agents verifiable identities on the blockchain. The blockchain also features efficient fee routing mechanisms designed for high-frequency agent trades, along with x402 micropayments tailored for agent-to-agent commerce.<\/p>\n<p>Injective\u2019s underlying architecture already supports a decentralized central limit order book for both spot and perpetual trading.<\/p>\n<h2>The bigger picture for Injective<\/h2>\n<p>The platform has processed over $6.8 billion in volume related to real-world assets as of mid-2026. In a move that separates it from most of its DeFi peers, Injective became an SEC-registered transfer agent in 2026. That designation allows it to maintain official records of securities ownership and handle transfers.<\/p>\n<h2>What to watch at Token2049 and beyond<\/h2>\n<p>Token2049 Singapore runs October 7-8, with side events spanning October 5-11. The October 6 agentic commerce event will likely serve as a demo day of sorts for projects built using the Nova Program\u2019s resources, though the exact format hasn\u2019t been disclosed.<\/p>\n<p>                    <!-- Editorial Disclosure --><\/p>\n<div class=\"mt-8 pt-4 border-t border-border text-xs text-muted-foreground not-prose\" readability=\"30.057971014493\">\n                        <strong>Disclosure:<\/strong> This article was edited by Editorial Team.
