Tether has launched QVAC, a decentralized AI platform that runs directly on local devices, supports peer-to-peer communication, and enables autonomous BTC and USDT transactions via its WDK system.

Tether has announced QVAC (QuantumVerse Automic Computer), a decentralized AI development platform designed to run AI models and agents directly on users’ local devices rather than in centralized cloud infrastructure. According to Tether, QVAC provides a single SDK and API for building AI applications that can operate on hardware ranging from smartphones and laptops to robots and wearables, with an emphasis on privacy, resilience, and user sovereignty over data. The platform includes peer‑to‑peer networking so devices can communicate directly, forming large swarms of collaborating AI agents without reliance on centralized servers. A notable feature of QVAC is its Wallet Development Kit (WDK), which allows AI agents built on the platform to transact autonomously in Bitcoin (BTC) and Tether’s USDt stablecoin, enabling machine‑to‑machine and agent‑driven payments without intermediaries. Tether positions QVAC as an open, local‑first alternative to mainstream AI platforms, claiming that on‑device inference removes per‑request costs, rate limits, and the need for persistent internet connectivity once models are downloaded. The SDK is released as free and open source under the Apache 2.0 license, and Tether plans initial QVAC‑based applications focused on privacy‑preserving use cases such as translation and health tools.
