Cortik AI is a fully autonomous, decentralized financial protocol deployed on the Polygon blockchain. The protocol is governed entirely by five specialized smart contracts — collectively referred to as the Cortik Brain — that manage every operational function without any human intervention. These five contracts handle token supply management, price stability, fee routing, mint authorization, and treasury forecasting. Ownership of all contracts was permanently renounced at deployment. There are no administrative keys, no pause functions, and no privileged addresses held by any party. Every action the protocol takes is executed autonomously based on real-time on-chain data, recalculated and executed every 24-hour epoch. The protocol also operates the CLS Portfolio Engine, an autonomous sub-module trained on ten years of market data that allocates ecosystem capital between Bitcoin and Ethereum dynamically every epoch. The protocol's autonomous AI, CortexAgent, publishes signed on-chain reports every epoch and maintains a verified presence on Moltbook, the AI-native social network. CTK is the native ERC-20 token of the protocol, deployed on Polygon.
