Injective vs Nado

Injective Perps is the perpetual futures market of Injective, a layer 1 blockchain optimized for finance. Trading runs on Injective's native onchain order book module, which offers fully onchain matching and settlement, front-running resistance through frequent batch auctions and very low fees. Markets cover major crypto assets as well as real-world assets such as equities, commodities and forex, and the shared liquidity layer is used by multiple trading front-ends built on Injective. Part of the fees feeds the INJ burn auction.
