What is Glider?

Glider is building the next generation of investing. We’re focused on long-term, diversified portfolios, automated rebalancing, and calm, intelligent UX—bringing the familiarity and safeguards of traditional investing to onchain finance. Our goal is abstract away all of the complexities of DeFi to allow anyone to invest onchain.

Since launch, we’ve had over 75,000 users join Glider. As the world’s assets move on chain, everyone will need novel and better ways to manage their assets. We’re excited about RWAs, onchain stocks and bonds—real investable assets fully onchain with all of the superpowers that being onchain brings.

Glider is backed by a16z CSX, Coinbase Ventures, Uniswap Ventures, Ondo Finance, MoonPay Ventures, GSR, Selini, and many others.
