The Glue protocol implements two distinct types of loan mechanisms:

  1. Flash Loans (Single Glue)
  2. Glued Loans (Multi-Glue Flash Loans)

These two systems complement each other, offering advanced functionality, wide compatibility, gas efficiency, and an exceptionally low borrowing fee of 0.01%. The fees from both Glue's Flash Loans and Glued Loans are paid entirely to the Glues that provide the collateral. This approach puts all locked assets to work, generating indirect revenue for the respective Sticky Token holders.

Glued Loans (Multi-Loans)

Glued Loans are an advanced, gas-optimized system allowing users to borrow from multiple Glues in a single transaction. This system provides maximum flexibility by letting users handle the repayment logic themselves, making it ideal for complex operations and special token types.
