SingularityNET (AGIX)
SingularityNET is a decentralized AI service network utilizing blockchain technology. It is dedicated to advancing Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and aims to create a global platform where AI, influence, and technology are accessible and fairly distributed.
Overview
SingularityNET (SNET) is a decentralized network that leverages blockchain technology to facilitate the publication and access of AI services. Developers can use the platform to offer their AI services, which are accessible worldwide via the internet. These services range from basic AI algorithms to complex problem-solving tools. The platform uses its native AGIX tokens to manage service charges. SingularityNET is designed with scalability and regulatory compliance in mind, aiming to minimize reliance on the Ethereum blockchain.

Key components and concepts
Registry
The SingularityNET Registry operates as a smart contract on the Ethereum Blockchain, serving as a repository for organizations, services, and type repositories. Developers publish their AI services through this Registry, and consumers use it to find services. The Registry supports operations such as Create, Read, Update, and Delete (CRUD) for various data categories like Organizations, Services, and Tags.
Multi-party escrow (MPE)
The Multi-Party Escrow (MPE) contract facilitates secure transactions between AI consumers and providers. It offers wallet functions for deposits and withdrawals and supports unidirectional payment channels for efficient transactions with minimal blockchain interactions.
Services
SingularityNET's platform allows users to buy and sell a wide array of AI services. Each service is defined by its specification and metadata. This decentralized marketplace streamlines the composition and utilization of AI services.
Daemon
The SingularityNET daemon, or snetd, connects AI services with the platform. It handles payments and request translations, ensuring that consumers have funded the escrow contract and have an active payment channel before service usage. It also supports SSL termination, comprehensive logging, and rate limiting.
Products
AI marketplace
The SingularityNET Marketplace is a decentralized application that simplifies interactions with AI services via a user-friendly interface. It manages payments, service ratings, and data aggregation, ensuring that only vetted services are displayed.
AI publisher
The AI Publisher, or Publisher Portal, aids developers by streamlining the process of publishing and managing organizations and services. It simplifies the listing of services on the Marketplace DApp, enhancing user experience.
AGIX token
The AGIX token, based on the Ethereum blockchain, is central to the SingularityNET ecosystem. It facilitates transactions for AI services and products within the marketplace and is compatible with several blockchains, including Cardano and Binance Smart Chain.
AGIX staking
AGIX Staking supports the AI marketplace's operations by allowing token holders to earn rewards while facilitating the conversion of AGIX tokens to fiat currency when needed. This mechanism ensures a liquidity pool for ongoing token exchanges.
The fiat-crypto gateway
The Fiat-Crypto Gateway enables users to interact with AI service providers using fiat currency, while the platform internally uses AGIX tokens. This dual functionality maintains the economic logic of the AGIX token.
