Tau, in development, is the world’s first fully 
user-controlled blockchain, capable of understanding and implementing 
users’ consensus in real-time. It allows you to understand and be 
understood by billions of people, on a platform so advanced that it 
changes and updates itself based on how you as its users collaboratively
 decide what its next version should be like. 
Ohad Asor and Prof. Enrico Franconi recently joined the Bitcoin.com News Podcast to explain the advanced technology behind Tau:
By writing in languages that the Tau platform and its users can 
understand, it unlocks truly revolutionary features such as the ability 
to make your knowledge machine accessible, creating the world’s first 
knowledge economy to trade specific pieces of knowledge for cash (using 
the Agoras cryptocurrency (Ticker AGRS)) as well as the ability to host 
efficient discussions and collaboration of ideas of up to billions of 
people. As users are able to make themselves understood to Tau, the 
network then can process everyone’s opinions, generate the opinion map 
from it and automatically upgrade itself seamlessly according to the 
overall users’ consensus, all without the need to ever hardfork again.

Ohad has been a Software Developer and Mathematician at top tech 
companies in Israel since 1995. He was the youngest university student 
in Israel, studying Mathematics and Computer Science at the age of 13. 
Over the years he has accumulated extensive knowledge and experience in 
programming and various areas of math, with recent focus on logic, 
machine learning, complexity theory, philosophy of science, economics, 
social choice, and decentralized networks. He designed and implements 
Tau and Agoras. As the founder, he is currently leading the development 
of the project.

Being a professor in knowledge representation databases, Prof. 
Franconi’s research focus lies in the application of database, 
artificial intelligence, and semantic technologies to concrete problems 
in information systems design and maintenance, in data integration, 
intelligent access, analysis and restructuring of big data. Prof. 
Franconi is the creator of various theories and tools for ontology 
modelling, reasoning and querying. He is the founder and director of the
 KRDB Research Centre for Knowledge and Data and provides research 
advise to Tau’s technical developments.
