# Core Technological Pillars

1. **Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE):** The engine of TORUS. FHE allows computations to be performed on encrypted data without ever decrypting it. The result, when decrypted, is identical to the result of operations performed on the plain text.
2. **EVM Equivalence:** TORUS is built to be familiar. It supports the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). If you can write Solidity, you can build on TORUS.
3. **FHE Coprocessors:** To solve the latency issues of the past, TORUS offloads heavy cryptographic operations to specialized validator nodes (coprocessors), keeping the base layer fast and cheap.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.torustoken.xyz/2.-torus-the-privacy-layer-for-the-infinite-web/core-technological-pillars.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
