GRANTS / BOUNTIES
From the beginning it has been our goal to collaborate with the cryptocurrency ecosystem and our focus on Gluon we are excited to support with technical knowledge and expertise and incentivize and reward involvement.
GRANTS
We are specifically looking for submissions for improvement of Gluon core code base, migration to the chain, and interoperability. If you have a novel idea on how to improve Gluon please fill out our submission form, and you’ll hear back from us.
We also offer grants for improvements to the Leverj trading system running on Gluon. Specifically, new order types, interoperability, and market making and liquidity providers.
We ask that for highly technical submissions you have the skills to create the core development, our team will help as needed with any specific questions. If you’re interested in migrating any project, application or any other item we will assist you with this and provide a grant for growing the ecosystem and the time to implement.
BOUNTIES
We are still working on our Bounties program.

USE CASES
DEX
Gluon is purpose built for Decentralized Exchanges. Leverj, a decentralized futures exchange powered by Gluon, demonstrates the High Frequency Trading (HFT) and scalability is able to rival a centralized exchange. Anyone can look at the Leverj code base, and create a decentralized exchange that is congestion tolerant and performant.
AMM
AMM or automated market makers are powered by a set of smart contracts that provide liquidity to markets. Gluon is looking to incentivize AMMs to join and provide liquidity as AMMs can provide liquidity across exchanges built on the Gluon Network meaning you’re not limited to one implementation.
NFT Exchange
NFTs are becoming increasingly popular, platforms like opensea and rarible are rapidly scaling. However, they still require high fees to trade items. Unfortunately this adds an unpredictable additional cost on top of the item. This can skew profits, and makes it unnecessarily more expensive to trade. Using Gluon an NFT creator could mint their token and make it available on the Gluon chain for gasless trading. If a user decides to take out ownership and move to another market or hold it in a standard Ethereum wallet, they can execute the withdrawal function and will now have full control on the Ethereum mainnet.
Tokenized Energy Market
Virtually any tokenized market with incentives can utilize Gluon. An energy market is one such case, where nodes or individuals who sell or lease power from solar panels for instance can quickly exchange with micro-transactions. Since this type of marketplace is high frequency, it makes sense to move to an alternative than the Ethereum mainnet. In this way you have the interoperability and fungibility of ERC20 tokens while running the main energy trading functionality on Gluon.
