TL;DR: Talus Network is integrating with Babylon. Through collaboration with Babylon, Talus sets the foundational step to introduce Bitcoin liquidity and staking into its ecosystem, broadening the scope for smart agents' transactions in the DeFi space, including the potential for BTC-backed stablecoins and other assets, offering increased decentralization and rewards.
Talus Network is setting the new standard for AI smart agents by creating an ultra-fast platform with bountiful liquidity for their creation, management, and monetization. Talus synchronizes a wide array of AI resources, including data, computational power, and sophisticated foundational models. It utilizes the MoveVM to create a performant blockchain execution environment with unparalleled developer experience tailored toward decentralized AI. With its stack, Talus enables smart agents to execute transactions and engage with smart contracts for off-chain and on-chain decentralized AI consumer applications.
Without the capability to conduct financial transactions and access to ample liquidity, the potential of advanced autonomous agents remains unrealized. Smart agents require access to capital, and their success is hindered by existing closed infrastructure, which does not allow AI to open bank accounts, undergo KYC checks, or transfer money easily. To transact and manage assets effectively, smart agents will need to leverage the open and distributed infrastructure of blockchains. One of the core focuses of Talus, in creating an environment for smart agents to thrive, is giving them access to such liquidity and composability. This is where the collaboration with Babylon becomes a game-changer for Talus Network.
Before Babylon, the use of Bitcoin was largely limited to transactions on the Bitcoin L1 network. Only centralized organizations facilitated the use of Bitcoin liquidity on other chains via wrapped assets. Babylon revolutionizes this by laying the groundwork for trillions of dollars in Bitcoin to secure various ecosystems while preserving native bitcoins on the Bitcoin L1. Through this collaboration with Babylon, smart agents on Talus can access Bitcoin security, protecting their ability to perform complex transactions and tasks within the DeFi space.
Babylon enhances the security and trustworthiness of its protected chains, and Talus is proud to be among the first. Through this collaboration, Talus Network is strategically positioned to harness bitcoin staking and lay the groundwork for unlocking a new realm of possibilities for smart agents and the broader DeFi ecosystem.

About Babylon
Babylon is a blockchain project that designs security sharing protocols for the decentralized economy, founded in 2022 by Stanford Professor David Tse and Dr. Fisher Yu. Professor Tse is a member of the U.S. Academy of Engineering. He is renowned as the inventor of the legendary proportional-fair scheduling algorithm for wireless communications, and is the recipient of prestigious awards such as the IEEE Claude E. Shannon Award and the IEEE Richard W. Hamming Medal. The project is led by a team of consensus protocol researchers and experienced layer 1 engineers from around the world.
Babylon's mission is to scale Bitcoin to secure the decentralized economy. To achieve this, Babylon utilizes the three primary facets of Bitcoin: its asset, its reliable timestamping service, and its most censorship-resistant blockspace in the world. To leverage these facets, Babylon is developing three innovative security-sharing protocols: Bitcoin Staking Protocol, Bitcoin Timestamping Protocol, and Bitcoin Data Availability Protocol. Through these pioneering protocols, Babylon envisions a more secure and decentralized future.
