Abstract

Proximus Protocol is a blockchain-based platform built at the convergence of Artificial Intelligence and distributed ledger technologies. The protocol works by incorporating blockchain technology to create a decentralized platform for AI models to be trained, validated, and deployed. This allows for more secure, transparent, and trustworthy AI models, as well as the ability to share and monetize the models in a revolutionary decentralized AI marketplace. Users can create, experience, and monetize content and applications in form of intelligence-bearing avatars / intelligent non-fungible tokens. These intelligent avatars are fully owned by the community members, which gives them full control over their creations.

The adoption of blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI) paradigms is proceeding at a high pace and is reflected in the market size of the global blockchain, AI-based crypto solutions. The market size was valued at around $4 billion at the start of 2023 and is expected to hit $ 10 billion by the end of 2023 if it maintains the current growth rate.

Blockchain AI technologies enable data monetization, which is expected to be the most significant factor driving the market during the forecast period. This shows a huge potential for Proximus protocol, especially with its revolutionary decentralized marketplace set to serve the whole web 3 space, especially the AI-as-a-service niche.

We acknowledge the success and innovation of other blockchain-based AI projects, such as Ocean Protocol and DeepBrain Chain, as they push the limits of possibilities in this field. It's probably thanks to Alethea AI that the concept of iNFTs even exists. At Proximus Protocols we aim to create something beneficial for the entire ecosystem and leave our own mark.
