The real test isn't tech. It's distribution. How do you get a coffee shop in Ohio to accept it? That's a sales and marketing problem orders of magnitude harder than building the chain.

I trade forex on weekends sometimes, except I can't because forex markets are closed. Stock markets? Closed. Commodity exchanges? Closed. The entire traditional financial system just shuts down for two days every week because that's how it's always worked. Banks need weekends too, apparently.
Then I'm sitting here on a Sunday morning, bored, wanting to take a position on something, and it hits me that @Injective just runs continuously. No weekend closures, no holiday shutdowns, no "please try again during business hours." The market is whoever shows up, whenever they show up, from wherever they are. That simple difference represents a fundamentally different financial architecture.
My coworker got liquidated on a traditional margin account once because the market gapped over the weekend on news that broke Saturday. Position went underwater while markets were closed, nothing he could do except watch. Monday morning opened with massive losses that wiped his account. That gap risk exists purely because markets close. Continuous markets don't gap like that because price discovery never stops.
The global accessibility creates weird dynamics where Asian trading hours blend into European hours blend into American hours without the artificial segmentation traditional markets impose. You're not waiting for New York to open or worrying about liquidity drying up at market close. Activity ebbs and flows naturally based on when people want to trade rather than when institutions permit trading.
$INJ facilitates this continuous operation through validator networks that don't sleep. No central authority deciding when markets open or close, just infrastructure that runs whenever anyone wants to use it. That 24/7 availability sounds minor until you want to react to news at 2am on Sunday and realize you actually can.
The psychological difference of continuous markets is underappreciated. You're not forced to hold positions through weekends wondering what news might break while you're locked in. You can enter and exit whenever conditions suit your strategy rather than when the market deigns to be open. That flexibility changes how you think about risk management entirely.
Traditional finance closing for weekends made sense when trading required physical presence at exchanges. Humans need rest, buildings need maintenance, whatever. But digital infrastructure doesn't need weekends. The continued closure of traditional markets is institutional inertia, not technical necessity. Platforms that recognize this and operate continuously have genuine advantages for anyone who values flexibility over tradition. #Injective @Injective $INJ
