The important thing to think when marketing this is: THINK GLOBAL. Not just crypto market. You have to be thinking Disney / Google sized scope when coming at this. We want the world the adopt this, not just the crypto community.

We must think BIGGER! Include everyone on this planet.

i completely agree, and that's why the materials i'm preparing now are intended for any thinking reader, not only techies. ofc this makes the writing much harder. but not x100 harder, as the audience size grows

Allow me to disagree on some points here. Thinking global in Disney / Google sized scope is right but the approach and ways to reach the global in today's information and connections world are very different. The world is very colorful if you don't speak to techies, if you talk about black some people see grey in it and you are invisible for them. It's better to concentrate on a group of people outside the tech box (non tech crypto community), to frame your story in they worldview but to frame it in a way that it will be easy for them to spread it to the rest of the world. The story about Tau should be "spreadable".
here is the best book of Seth Godin that talks exactly about those concepts: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B4FrvXeliUyYQTlBZTRQR0ZZTnM/edit

While I agree that this 'spreadable' explanation will be critical to Tau's success, I think the first stage is the technical explanation of the vision. (and resulting adoption inside the crypto community)

We are all here because of the technological advancements Ohad is working on - the creation of a better ecosystem. The technical underpinning of this needs to be shared and vetted by those within the developer crypto scene. To me, this 'developer adoption' phase is the key first step here.

I think a good analogy here is the growth/adoption of Ethereum. Ethereum is now THE ecosystem for dapps - primarily because of developer adoption. Ethereum understood that their initial target was developers experimenting and building within their ecosystem.

This could all be released at one time - packaged nicely for non-techies and crypto devs - but I think the real meat behind the bones are the technological advancements Ohad is working on. IMO, this is the critical piece that everything hinges on - not the ELI5 explanation of Tau.

TLDR - The grand picture must be packaged for the masses but, to me, it's actually the crypto community that needs to understand the technical benefits / advancements within this new ecosystem.

From my understanding Tau is much more than ecosystem for dapps. We deal here with right explanation of "decentralized artificial intelligence" to the masses. I can't even clearly explain it to myself for now,waiting for the white paper

I agree that the technical explanation of the vision is very important and indeed it will have it huge effect inside the community but it hardly can be spread outside of it so we definitely need two packages here.

100% agree with you. Tau is much more... my explanation was very oversimplified. It will need to be packaged for the masses.

My main point was that explaining/sharing the technical breakthrough within the crypto community should be the current priority.

Ohad - thanks for the graph above. Even with my limited understanding I was able to get a better idea of how everything works together.
