Purpose and Scope of This GitBook

The purpose of this GitBook is to provide readers with a deep, technical explanation of Gradient and its core technologies, starting with liquid staking and the TAO Network. A thorough understanding of the Gradient protocol and its underlying mechanisms is essential to embrace its power. With the development of Gradient, a new opportunity arises for our users and the whole ETH ecosystem. Our goal is to leverage DeFi integration to strengthen liquidity and reach a new generation of users, ushering in a new dimension in decentralization and governance to the DeFi space. We hope this book serves not only as a knowledge base for users to better understand the Gradient ecosystem, but also as a guidebook that indicates possible future growth and prosperity of the space.
