Introduction

Glue is not merely constructing the future; it is orchestrating a paradigm shift in the blockchain domain by leveraging the Substrate framework to forge an accessible and user-centric ecosystem. In a field where technological sophistication frequently eclipses practicality, Glue distinguishes itself by offering a cohesive Layer 1 and Layer 2 ecosystem, all deployed by the foundation with a product vision in mind that facilitates seamless communication, asset transfer, and decentralised application (dApp) deployment. By rectifying the fundamental inadequacies of traditional blockchains, chiefly accessibility and usability, Glue guarantees an unparalleled user experience.

The prevailing notion that the future of finance must be universally accessible is not a mere platitude for Glue; it is a mandate. While the industry is mired in the complexity of technology for its own sake, Glue advances a novel doctrine: security through ease of use. One of the critical failures of other ecosystems, such as Ethereum, is their lack of a unified product strategy. In Ethereum, anarchy reigns: disparate teams work on the core technology and Layer 2 solutions without coordination, fostering adversarial relationships rather than collaboration. This fragmented approach leaves dApps to a chaotic wait-and-see strategy, often resulting in suboptimal outcomes.

In contrast, Glue adopts a holistic tech stack approach, meticulously planning and integrating each layer of the ecosystem while maintaining fully decentralised deployments. Glue will deploy a Layer 1, multiple Layer 2s as well as the cornerstone dApps needed for a flourishing DeFi ecosystem. This strategy ensures cohesive and user-friendly results, moving beyond the hope and prayer method (combined with bribes for incentives) that other ecosystems rely on. Contrary to the prevalent misconception that the underlying technology stack is the entirety of a Layer 1 blockchainโ€™s product, Glue postulates that it is merely one facet of a comprehensive strategy. Glueโ€™s focus extends beyond the technological and the technical to encompass a broader vision.

Subsequent white papers will delve into the intricacies of the dApp stack and the service layer, elucidating how these components coalesce to form a holistic and user-centric blockchain ecosystem. This approach not only simplifies blockchain interaction but also fortifies security, ensuring that the sophisticated potential of blockchain technology is accessible to all, without the labyrinthine complexities that have historically stymied broader adoption.
