Tau is a decentralized blockchain network intended to solve the bottlenecks inherent in large-scale human communication and accelerate productivity in human collaboration using logic-based Artificial Intelligence. Agoras is an application over Tau-Chain, being first and foremost a smart currency offering predictable and verifiable contracts, and will offer several markets.

AGORAS CODE-FOR-MONEY MARKET

Eliminating the trust problem between programmers and entities who hire them. Can publish a smart contract that whoever supplies a code with proof that it meets given requirements, wins coins automatically. Thanks to Tau language, such proofs can be trusted.

COMPUTATIONAL RESOURCES MARKET Everyone will be able to rent out their computational resources (CPU, GPU, Disk) and get paid for them. The lack of many computers is a major bottleneck in many fields (especially medicine design) and cloud/supercomputing companies cannot compete with the higher quantity and lower cost that home computers can offer.

DECENTRALIZED SMART SEARCH ENGINE With a large enough network, Tau can crawl the web overnight. We will have a self-incentivizing search engine such that the data is shared by everyone and supporting nodes get paid.
