Tether announced the upcoming launch of QVAC (QuantumVerse Automatic Computer), a decentralized development platform for locally operating AI agents.

Paolo Ardoino, Tether’s CEO, claimed that the company is aiming for a full launch in Q3 2025. Before this happens, it will also release a few QVAC-based AI apps for general use.

Tether is Entering the AI Agents Market

The prominent stablecoin issuer Tether has been investing in AI for several months, even as the prevailing market trends looked bearish.

Earlier this month, crypto AI agents staged a massive comeback, and the firm is now revealing its project. Tether’s QVAC is intended to keep the AI space decentralized, empowering individuals to use sophisticated protocols:

A little over a week ago, Tether teased its upcoming peer-to-peer AI platform, which now seems like a reference to QVAC. Ardoino claimed that the company aims for a Q3 2025 release, which may take longer.

Because Tether won’t be fully releasing QVAC for several months at the earliest, there aren’t many details available. However, the company’s statements describe some very ambitious goals.

QVAC will center around AI agents, specifically on developing them for local use. It will use modular architecture to create functional tools that run on personal devices.

Tether was very clear that QVAC’s agents won’t require users to remotely connect with external servers. Even where it employs collaboration, QVAC will focus on peer-to-peer contact with other small-scale developers.

The firm will also launch the first QVAC-based apps “soon,” but it has provided no further details.

At first glance, these look like extremely ambitious goals. Still, it’s important to remember that DeepSeek recently changed the whole paradigm.

This Chinese AI model boasts dramatically lower hardware requirements than its competitors, enabling users to host it locally. DeepSeek can do this for an entire LLM, so Tether hopes to employ QVAC for more niche AI agents.

Hopefully, Tether will continue releasing technical details about QVAC during Q2 before a full launch in Q3. If the company can meet this imposing challenge, it would significantly contribute to global AI development.
