Faster local models can keep personal context on-device, but wallet authority still depends on deterministic limits, assertions and human approval.
The partnership puts consumer hardware into the AI assistant race, making latency and data control more important alongside cloud scale.
Buterin's 2-bit quantized benchmark — 35 tok/s on Apple silicon, 7 tok/s on AMD — is the first public test of whether CROPS-style private inference can run on consumer hardware.
Buterin's framing matters because it pushes CROPS beyond the "decentralized AI" label — the same local-AI stack should also be Ethereum-native at the access layer, from ZK-paid LLM calls to private…
