DeepSeek V4 could reshape Ethereum privacy as Vitalik Buterin mentions it directly
Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin (비탈릭 부테린) has pointed to Chinese AI model DeepSeek V4 as a key technology for strengthening privacy on Ethereum. He said security and privacy are hard to guarantee under centralised AI structures as AI increasingly handles crypto wallets and blockchain interactions. Buterin described combining local AI models with an Ethereum access layer and zero-knowledge proofs to reduce exposure of metadata, IP addresses and wallet balances.
