The lengthy article from @Talus_Labs, let me summarize it

1 ) Traditional blockchains can verify states but cannot infer; smart contracts can execute logic but cannot act. Talus Network aims to empower blockchains with intelligence and action capabilities, enabling them to support more complex autonomous AI agents.

2 ) $US serves the function of coordinating assets, ensuring economic interactions between developers, users, node operators, and agents.

3 ) $US flywheel: Real usage → Real demand → Stronger tokens → Stronger ecosystem

· Applications → Workflows: More agents, tools, and workflows

· Workflows → Revenue: Each workflow pays a coordination fee

· Revenue → Token demand: Fees converted to $US, increasing scarcity

Scarcity + Utility → Value appreciation

4 ) Functions of $US

· Workflow execution: Each workflow running on Nexus will generate economic activity paid in $US

· Execution priority and coordination: Users can request higher priority executions using $US

· Monetization of tools and agents: Developers can earn $US for each tool call or agent call

· Staking mechanism: Operators leading the network need to stake $US to securely coordinate workflows.
