Talus Network Raised $6M for Decentralized AI Expansion
With the spearhead of Polychain Capital, Talus Network raised $6 million at a $150-million valuation. The funding is committed to reinforcing Talus’ infrastructure: the blockchain framework underlying the project and Nexus, the end-to-end development toolKIT meant for developers desiring to create self-governing AI agents.
By utilizing the Sui Move programming language, Talus enables developers to implement AI agents with smart contract systems. The agents perform tasks autonomously, such as DeFi portfolio optimization, treasury management, and the working of NPCs in gaming. The funds raised will also be used to introduce a TAI token for network transaction fees and staking rewards, which will further build the decentralized ecosystem for Talus, according to The Block.
