Imagine a network of self‑governing software entities—agents—that can execute private business logic, exchange proofs of correct execution, and dynamically compose workflows without relying on a single trusted party. Such a system promises: ...

Introduction The rapid evolution of large language models (LLMs) has transformed how we think about automation, reasoning, and interaction with software. While commercial APIs such as OpenAI’s GPT‑4 dominate headlines, an equally exciting—and arguably more empowering—trend is the rise of open‑source LLMs that can be run locally, customized, and integrated into complex systems without vendor lock‑in. One of the most compelling applications of these models is the creation of decentralized autonomous agents (DAAs): software entities that can perceive their environment, reason about goals, act on behalf of users, and coordinate with other agents without a central orchestrator. Think of a swarm of financial‑analysis bots that share market insights, a network of personal assistants that negotiate meeting times across calendars, or a distributed IoT management layer that autonomously patches devices. ...
