Abstract

This paper introduces Gluon W, a novel stablecoin protocol inspired by nuclear physics and named after the particle responsible for the stability of matter in the universe. The key idea in Gluon W is to split (as in nuclear fission) an existing volatile asset into its stable and unstable components. These components can be merged back (as in nuclear fusion) into the original asset or transmuted into each other (as in nuclear beta decays). Various stability theorems are proven and their proofs are formally verified using the interactive proof assistant Rocq.
