Vitalik Buterin is pushing a local, private, and self-sovereign approach to AI, arguing that users should rely less on cloud models and more on secure personal control over their LLM stack.

Google says future quantum computers may be able to break the elliptic curve cryptography used across crypto with far fewer resources than previously estimated, increasing pressure on blockchains to plan post-quantum upgrades.

The Ethereum Economic Zone proposes a new L1-L2 framework designed to make rollups extend Ethereum instead of fragmenting it, with synchronous composability, shared liquidity, and ETH-native execution at the center.
