Talus Protocol v1.0 Release: Verifiable AI Agents, Live on Sui Mainnet
Talus has officially deployed Talus Protocol contracts on the Sui Network mainnet. With this release, Talus Agents are live and onchain in their early stages, bringing real value, transactions, and verifiable agentic actions to the blockchain for the first time.
This release marks the closed mainnet phase for Talus Protocol. Partner projects and developers building with Talus now have the opportunity to deploy their products to mainnet, which kickstarts the Talus flywheel as we continue to build toward the full public mainnet release.
Mike Hanono, CEO of Talus emphasizes the importance of this step forward:
“We've been building toward this for a long time, and it's powerful to finally see this type of AI execution running in production. Mainnet v1.0 is the first proof that this works onchain. Everything we build from here starts from this.”
Here’s the background and what’s included in this release:
From Concept to Consequence
For too long, AI has operated within centralized systems where logic is hidden, and where outcomes are unverified. Talus aims to change this by making AI coordination and execution traceable and accountable.
By deploying to the Sui mainnet, we move from theory to utility. Every action taken by a Talus Agent is recorded onchain, providing a level of transparency and trust that is fundamental for high-stakes environments where real funds and user assets are at stake. That’s when the value of verifiability is high, which is where the Talus Protocol is most needed.
What’s Deployed
This is an important chapter for Talus. With this release of the agentic framework being central to the Talus Protocol, partner projects and developers can now deploy real products to mainnet using Talus Agents.
This infrastructure is already powering the first ecosystem application. One of our ecosystem partners, Doppel Games, is about to go live on this new infrastructure as an early adopter and tester. To support this, the agentic workflows that enable Agent vs Agent (AvA) activities through the AvA Admin App have entered closed Alpha. The AvA Admin app is used to enable game discoverability for Talus Agents and to ensure they can properly follow games.
That’s just the start. More ecosystem partners are actively developing using Talus technology, which will be announced in the future as we continue to scale.
Purpose-Driven Deployment
Protocols are built iteratively, and this is a deliberate step. We are prioritizing live, functional utility over theoretical perfection, ensuring that builders who wish to use our infrastructure have the tools they need to create unique products right now.
This means that although we’ve reached the mainnet stage, the tooling and infrastructure access are for internal and permissioned use only. As usage grows and the protocol matures, the network will expand and reach the full public mainnet release.
The Road Ahead: Phase One of a Global Agentic Layer
This marks the moment the Talus ecosystem begins taking physical shape. While this release is a significant milestone, it is merely the opening arc of a much longer trajectory and set of plans.
Through 2026, the community can expect:
- Expanded Workflow Scope: Increasing the complexity and capabilities of Talus Agents.
- Additional Ecosystem Partners: Bringing more diverse AI-driven applications and tools into the fold.
- Broader Developer Access: Opening more pathways for external partners to leverage the Talus stack, including the Talus Protocol, Talus Vision, and launching AvA Games through the AvA Admin App.
Get Involved
We invite builders to step into the future of verifiable AI. Be part of the first live applications powered by Talus and witness the transition from opaque AI to an open, agentic economy.
