Talus (US)

Talus (US) is the native token of Talus Network, a decentralized infrastructure protocol and layer-1 blockchain built on the Sui Move stack that is purpose-built for on-chain autonomous AI agents. The network lets developers create, deploy, own, and monetize AI agents that can reason, make decisions, and execute actions with verifiable, auditable outcomes recorded on-chain, addressing the gap between blockchains that can verify information and AI systems that can act on it. Its core framework, the Talus Agentic Framework and its Nexus implementation, standardizes off-chain computation, data retrieval, model inference, and workflow execution into composable, verifiable agent pipelines, using techniques such as opML, zkML, and teeML to keep agent decision-making transparent.

The US token is central to the Talus ecosystem: it pays fees for AI agent workflow execution, is staked to secure the network and support service providers or validators, and is used to register new agents and tools. Holders also use US to vote on protocol proposals through the Talus DAO, and the tokenomics include a deflationary mechanism that directs a share of protocol revenue toward buying back and burning tokens. Total supply is capped at 10 billion US tokens. The project launched its token in December 2025 on the Sui blockchain and has attracted backing from investors including Polychain Capital and Animoca Brands, alongside strategic support from the Sui Foundation and Walrus Foundation.
