Fabric is an **AI-centric Layer 1 blockchain** designed to decentralize computation, enhance smart contract functionality, and integrate AI-driven reasoning into blockchain applications. It is **EVM-compatible, fast, and low-cost**, providing a scalable foundation for AI-powered dApps, DeFi protocols, and decentralized infrastructure.

At the core of Fabric is its **Micro-Networks** system, where nodes not only validate Fabric blocks but can also opt in to support **decentralized databases, autonomous servers and AI Agents**. With **built-in oracles that connect to OpenAI, xAI, web search and other AI services**, Fabric enables smart contracts to access real-time data and AI-powered decision-making, making blockchain applications more intelligent and capable than ever before.
