  2. White Paper: Service Layer

A New Standard for DeFi

One of the key decisions in not building Glue on a traditional Layer 1 blockchain and devoting considerable resources in building Glue as a new Layer 1 was to enable these types of small but strategically meaningful innovations. The ability to integrate such services seamlessly required a fully integrated stack, something that could not be achieved on a blockchain lacking these features.

These small changes in both technology implementation and strategic vision result in a significant impact, making Glue a pioneering force in the DeFi space. DeFi as a major use case of blockchain technology has suffered a great deal due to the absence of basic services. Glue is not just another blockchain project; it is a holistic ecosystem designed to bridge the gap between traditional financial services and decentralised finance. By focusing on the needs of retail users and providing the services they expect, Glue is poised to drive mass adoption and set a new standard for what a blockchain ecosystem can achieve.

Glue’s commitment to user experience, coupled with the integration of essential services, positions Glue as the leading choice for users seeking a reliable and efficient DeFi solution and sets up the entire ecosystem to compete and prove its advantages over the traditional banking system.
