Launch with Automatic Adaptive Governance
Tau Net enables governance systems that automatically evolve in real-time according to consensus. Specify the governance logic for your DAO or project, Tau Net builds the software directly.
Evolution from Consensus
Software automatically adapts in real-time according to collective and designated user consensus. As user needs change, DAOs and Projects autonomously evolve to continue to satisfy requirements.
Large-Scale Consensus
Detection
Specified Intent replaces traditional voting hierarchies. User specified intent for governance is formally reasoned over to detect agreement and disagreement between users, across all DAO's and Projects, and visualized in a real-time Opinion Map.
Self-Referential
Rules
Laws and regulations often refer to themselves and others. Self-Reference is the next gen. Specify live adaptive rules with their own complex governance for change in your DAO or Project.

Verified Updates
On-Chain
Adaptive Control
Governance on Tau Net is fully customizable. Launch DAOs and projects with any custom control setup, and adapt control over time as desired, they differ only by control logic.
Automatic Coordination
Enable DAOs and projects to automatically coordinate in response to rapidly changing information.
Governing Tau Net
Tau Net itself is controlled, and developed, by its DAOs, Projects and Users under the same principles of automatic development and evolution from consensus. All stakeholders have an equal right to specify the intent for Tau Net’s functionality and governance, including the tokenomics of its native token Agoras ($AGRS)
Governing Tau Net FAQ
What level of influence do Participants have?
There are 4 fundamental concepts that enable Participants to govern Tau Net, all which require the use of Tau Language’s logical reasoning.
Worldviews: Participants can create a logical set of their desires, proposed rules and requirements called a “Worldview”, and maintain it over time as their opinions change.
Agreements: are simply areas where participants agree, similarly for disagreements. Agreements are highlighted to the users in a real-time opinion map. Even as users agree and disagree, Tau Net will only update according to its conditions for change.
Consensus & Rules: Users create Tau Net’s governance rules, including the conditions for the rules to change. Consensus is where Participant agreement meets conditions to change existing system specification.
Automatic Synthesis: Tau Net automatically builds its next version from the agreed upon new specification, enabling updates to happen with guaranteed accuracy according to the specification itself.
What can governance on Tau Net look like?
Governance includes any rules and their conditions for change, as long as the Participants agree to them. For example, rules may require that only participants with logically verified knowledge in the system govern a feature until they violate defined principles. Any change must follow the existing logic conditions for updates.
How can Participants prevent hostile takeovers?
Participants play a crucial role in preventing hostile takeovers. Because Participants can define the logic of what it means to “collectively agree”, they can implement governance rules that prevent such a takeover from occurring, ensuring the network’s security. Takeovers are only possible if the governance logic permits them to happen.
For example, rules can contain requirements for participant authentication, restrict majority voting, and mandate approval from domain experts in the system.
How are malicious outcomes prevented?
Participants can define constraints, such as “Never transmit private data.” The protocol then enforces the specification automatically, and the constraints remain active until new governance logic formally modifies them.
Will the Tau Net team create all the rules?
No, as that wouldn’t adhere to our decentralized ethos, though we will assist in establishing the initial ruleset. The Testnet provides participants with the freedom to control the initial ruleset before the Mainnet is launched. From there, the system can change based on the governance framework as users participate. Our role is to facilitate this process, not to dictate the rules.
