About GlueX

GlueX is the execution and data layer of decentralized finance (DeFi) providing a unified suite of onchain and offchain services designed to simplify the complexities of DeFi. Our modular framework abstracts away the complexities by standardizing integrations across diverse blockchains, exchange venues and liquidity providers within a unified framework to simplify, optimize and expedite the access to DeFi. This architecture enables the creation of truly composable applications without requiring developers to build and maintain complex manual integrations across multiple protocols
BEYOND SWAPS
GlueX allows you not only to do swap but also equips you for entering and exiting lending positions, borrow or repay loans, depositing into yield farming strategies, adding or removing liquidity to diverse pools, stake or unstake in vaults and staking contracts, mint or redeem assets, execute flash loan and more
  • Smart Routing Our advanced routing engine continuously aggregates liquidity from multiple liquidity modules, analyzing every potential execution path in real time guaranteeing optimal trade execution by identifying the most efficient and cost effective routes, ensuring users always receive the best possible outcomes for their transactions
  • Metachain Liquidity Access unparalleled liquidity depth sourced from diverse DeFi modules including DEXs, lending protocols, staking platforms, restaking services, AMMs, yield generating vaults and other specialized protocols spanning both primary and secondary markets, providing unprecedented access to liquidity across the DeFi ecosystem
  • Optimal Pricing Through our sophisticated routing algorithms and deep liquidity aggregation, GlueX consistently delivers optimal pricing. We minimize slippage and ensure your orders are executed at the most favorable rates available across all integrated networks, translating to better returns for every transaction
