What’d they ship? CryptoModels 1.1.9 just dropped:

– Now supports multi-model serving, so you can load a whole fleet of models with one command

– Works out of the box with chat, embeddings, and image gen

– Smarter fallback logic, cleaner CLI logs, and Mistral model support

– Includes Devstral-Small by Mistral, preserved with verified hashes on Filecoin

Basically turns your local agent into a mini open-source ChatGPT stack but you own it, and it runs on your machine.

Now pair that with what’s coming :

🔹 Local Model Installer: Redesigned UX makes it dead simple to get models running on your machine, even if you're not technical

🔹 Local ChatGPT Agent: Talk to a ChatGPT-style model with full privacy. No internet needed. DeepSearch and DeepThink baked in

🔹 Local Claude Code Agent: Private coding assistant that helps you debug/write without leaking your keys to OpenAI or Anthropic

🔹 Local Image Generation Agent: Create any pics you want, fully offline

Everything’s running on your own device now. No sketchy server in the middle, just speed, privacy, and zero cost after setup.

As models shrink and hardware gets cheaper, local compute becomes the default.

Eternal’s building for that future built on privacy, peer to peer connections, and permissionless infrastructure. And $EAI is the native fuel that binds it all together.

Volume’s ticking up again, and with low float, real product, and a team that ships weekly.
If AI infra rotates back into focus, this might be one of the cleanest spots on the chart.
