TronWeekly reports that 
Injective’s token-buyback strategy has removed more than 7.27 million INJ from circulation, representing approximately $58 million in value by October 22, 2026. The supplied headline places the deployment at $57.5 million, while the article summary rounds the figure to approximately $58 million; no other outlet provided corroboration or an alternative figure.
The program is presented as a supply-reduction measure for INJ. TronWeekly also cited nearby resistance levels of $8.29 and $8.60, alongside a $50 conditional long-term breakout level identified by analyst ZAYK Charts. That longer-term figure was framed as conditional rather than a guaranteed outcome.
Live market data show INJ at $7.46, below the cited $8.29 and $8.60 levels. The token has fallen 9.28% over 24 hours and 6.59% over seven days, while its market capitalization stands at $745.64 million. That weakness contrasts with the buyback’s reported reduction of circulating supply and could keep attention focused on the relationship between purchases and trading performance.
The broader crypto market capitalization is $2.51 trillion, with the overall market described as flat. 
Bitcoin is up 0.06% over 24 hours, while the Fear and Greed index stands at 28, indicating a fearful market backdrop. For INJ, the next points to monitor are whether the token can move above the cited near-term levels and whether the reported pace of buybacks continues as its seven-day decline weighs on sentiment.
Since this brief published about 6 hours ago, Injective (INJ) has moved from $7.46 to $7.50 — +0.54%.
The chart plots INJ's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from TLT's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 INJ ≈ ₦10,494.38 (about $7.50), down 9.6% over 24 hours. The naira itself trades about 3.7% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Nigerian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
