RE: What Is Tau? - My Only Other Crypto Investment

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

Extremely well put. It was like reading my own thoughts right down to "I don't understand the tech but I know it sounds awesome!" Except due to my work load I haven't had time to stay on top of any of developments and had no idea why the price had spiked! Good to know!

AGRS has been one of my few recommendations in the space and I still continue to recommend it and largely for the reasons you highlighted: I invest in people and Ohad is clearly an amazing person who I have no doubt has assembled a world-class team. I'm happy to fund his hair-brained scheme even if it might not work, just like I was happy to fund Elon Musk's hair-brained schemes over the years.

Also shout out to @dana-edwards who brought this project to my attention, and no doubt many of us here on Steemit. This project is one of the few truly ambitious projects in the space and I'm happy to wait years for any kind of return on my investment.

Hey andrarchy, thanks for popping by

The price spike was due to the first release of working Tau Meta Language code on the github

He is truly going for something revolutionary here, and the guy is just a pure genius. Not much hair, but definitely a lot of brain, hair brained schemes or not :)

And yes, I added a shoutout to dana in the post, I can't believe I forgot it in the initial post. Steem and Tau are my only crypto investments. I truly expect great things from them.

Thanks for all the hard work Andy.

Hi @trafalgar

TML is the most ambitious project I know of. What I learned from a quote from Bruce Lee (I remember you appreciate martial arts), is that one of the keys to his success was to aim high.

The quote:

“Don't fear failure. — Not failure, but low aim, is the crime. In great attempts it is glorious even to fail.” - Bruce Lee

This holds very true. Whether we are talking about Facebook which had the extremely ambitious mission of making the world more connected, or Google to organize the world's information and make it useful, or Bitcoin to create peer to peer electronic cash. Tauchain and Tau has the kind of ambition where the reward for success of this project is a world changing impact.

TML being not just a language, but a meta language, allowing for advanced users to define and configure languages. This is something no other crypto project has even attempted.
