Talus Network Secures $6 Million in Strategic Funding Round
Talus Network, a leading AI training infrastructure for smart contracts and decentralized applications, has announced a successful strategic fundraising round of $6 million. The fundraising was led by Polychain Capital, with participation from notable angel investors from Polygon, Sentient, and Allora, as well as Foresight Ventures, Animoca Brands, Geek Cartel, and Echo.
The fresh capital will be utilised to further develop the Talus ecosystem, focusing on the blockchain infrastructure Protochain and the Nexus framework. The company aims to strengthen its position as a powerhouse in AI training for smart contracts and decentralized applications.
According to Olaf Carlson-Wee, founder of Polychain Capital, AI agents are becoming active economic entities, and Talus is leading the way in building a new economy where AI-driven agents are an integral part of the digital landscape.
Talus Network's AI infrastructure offers a unique solution for portfolio optimization, MEV protection in DeFi, grant allocation for DAOs, treasury management, NPC management, and automated testing in gaming. The company's innovative approach allows AI agents to be converted into on-chain assets, enabling developers, trainers, and users to participate in the economic model of the agents.
In a move that could disrupt the AI and blockchain industries, Talus also plans to use part of the capital to build an AI-powered "dating experience" app on the blockchain.
The strategic round was announced on Tuesday, bringing the total raised to date to $9 million, following a seed round announced in February. With this funding, Talus Network is poised to continue its growth and innovation in the AI and blockchain sectors.
The company's valuation, as per their announcement, is now at $150 million. More details about the specific plans for using the proceeds to advance AI training infrastructure and the Talus ecosystem are expected to be revealed in future communications.
News of Talus Network's successful $6 million strategic funding round has attracted attention in the technology and blockchain sectors. The new funding will be used to develop their AI-powered ecosystem, particularly focusing on the integration of artificial intelligence with decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), such as AI-driven agents in a blockchain-based "dating experience" application.
