Press Release

Qtum Ally Brings 12 AI Models and MCP Together in One Secure Desktop Application

Published

on

The Qtum Foundation today announced the launch of Qtum Ally, a next-generation desktop AI agent designed to move beyond basic conversational tools toward true intelligent automation.

Unlike most cloud-based assistants, Ally runs directly on Windows and Mac, giving users greater privacy, performance, and control. Built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), a universal interface standard that enables AI systems to interact with external data and tools, Ally provides seamless integration and coordination between multiple AI models.

With access to 12 leading large language models (LLMs) preloaded, Ally allows users to build advanced, multi-model workflows, host their own models, and connect MCP servers, all within a single, easy-to-install desktop app.

You can download Qtum Ally for Windows or Mac here: https://qtum.ai/download

“Qtum Ally makes productivity about orchestration, not overload,” said Miguel Palencia, Co-Founder of Qtum. “By bringing multiple LLMs into one refined workspace powered by MCP, we give users real control and simplicity. Ally eliminates clutter and turns AI into a genuine performance multiplier.”

Actionable AI Beyond Chat

Qtum Ally fully supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling AI models to do more than generate text – they can perform coordinated actions.

MCP functions like the “USB-C of AI,” a universal connector allowing models to share data and issue commands across software tools, APIs, and online services.

Using Ally’s built-in MCP hosts and servers, users can automate multi-step workflows, combine different AI models for reasoning, planning, and execution, and complete tasks with minimal input – for example, locate available rentals, generate a presentation, and automatically send it by email.

Ally comes pre-configured with several MCP hosts and lets users easily add more. Each host provides specific functions to connect local databases, APIs, or online data sources, turning Ally into a customizable automation hub.

Desktop Control and Data Privacy

Qtum Ally runs locally, not in the cloud, ensuring data privacy, transparency, and control. It operates natively on Windows and macOS, runs offline for secure and consistent performance, and collects no personal information beyond what is required by the models themselves.

This local-first design aligns with Qtum’s long-standing principles of user independence, decentralization, and open standards.

Access Premium AI for Free

Qtum Ally is free to download and use, and for a limited time, users can enjoy complimentary access to premium features from top models such as ChatGPT-5, Qwen, DeepSeek, Claude, and Gemini.

Download Qtum Ally directly from the official Qtum GitHub repository:

https://github.com/qtumproject/ai-agent/releases/tag/v0.0.6

About Qtum

Founded in 2017, Qtum is a hybrid blockchain platform that merges Bitcoin’s UTXO stability with Ethereum’s smart contract flexibility. Powered by Proof-of-Stake consensus, Qtum operates as a fully decentralized network listed on major exchanges such as Binance, Kraken, Upbit, OKX, and Huobi.

Qtum has delivered nearly 50 core updates since inception and continuously integrates advancements from both Bitcoin and Ethereum. In March 2024, the foundation expanded into AI through the acquisition of a large-scale NVIDIA GPU farm. Qtum Ally represents the next step in this initiative, with upcoming plans to integrate the Qtum blockchain token directly into the Ally platform.

BlockDAG Presale Nears $600M With Alpine F1® Sponsorship as Litecoin & Polygon Approach Critical Q4 Breakout Levels

Published

on

Crypto markets are entering Q4 with volatility returning, and major altcoins are testing important resistance levels. Litecoin (LTC) has been consolidating strongly above $100, positioning for another push higher, while Polygon (POL) is compressing beneath the $0.28–$0.29 resistance zone.

Both projects carry credible catalysts: Litecoin benefits from a rising network hashrate, while Polygon has its Rio upgrade and token migration almost complete. Yet, the project commanding the most attention is BlockDAG (BDAG). Its presale has already raised more than $415M at a fixed $0.0013 price and secured a global sponsorship with the BWT Alpine Formula 1® Team, placing it among the most impactful presales ever.

Polygon (POL) Price Forecast: Rio Upgrade & Token Migration

Polygon (POL) has traded between $0.24 and $0.29 for months, creating a setup where a breakout could be close. A weekly close above $0.29 would confirm a base breakout, opening initial upside toward the low $0.30s and extending toward $0.35–$0.39 if momentum continues. Failure to reclaim $0.29 keeps the price rotating within its established range.

Two catalysts stand out for Q4. The Rio upgrade, completed on testnet in September, is scheduled for mainnet deployment in October and aims to improve throughput and validator economics. In parallel, the MATIC → POL migration is now 99% complete, reducing supply risks and finalizing the new token economy.

Prediction for Q4: If Rio launches smoothly and POL breaks $0.29 with RSI above 50 and stronger volume, the breakout case strengthens. Otherwise, expect continued sideways trade within $0.24–$0.29.

Litecoin (LTC) Price Prediction: Network Growth Supports Breakout

Litecoin has spent the last several months consolidating between $103 and $125, building a stable base above $100. Key support remains between $103 and $106, with resistance at $125–$135, the level that capped its rallies in June. A weekly close above $125 would confirm bullish continuation, opening the path toward $150–$155, where prior 2024 supply remains.

Network security continues to improve. Hashrate has risen nearly 19% in the past 90 days, reaching multi-year highs. This growth in miner participation supports long-term chain health. Technical signals are constructive as well, with daily RSI neutral and price above the 50- and 100-day EMAs, leaving room for further upside.

Prediction for Q4: If LTC holds $103 and clears $125–$135 with volume support, a rally toward $150 is realistic. If support breaks, a pullback toward $95–$100 may occur before another move higher.

BlockDAG: The Presale Setting New Standards

BlockDAG (BDAG) is changing expectations for presale projects. With more than $415M raised, 26B+ coins sold, and 312,000 holders already onboarded, it is scaling at levels many Layer-1 networks only achieve years after launch. Adoption is visible across both retail and infrastructure: over 3M people mine through the X1 Mobile Miner app, and 20,000 hardware miners have shipped to 130+ countries.

The landmark sponsorship with the BWT Alpine Formula 1® Team elevates BDAG beyond crypto circles, making it the first Layer-1 blockchain to secure a Formula 1® partnership. This places its brand before billions of fans each season, linking it with speed, global culture, and mainstream credibility.

At a fixed presale price of $0.0013, with less than $200M left before the $600M cap, the opportunity is becoming increasingly limited. Analysts highlight that presales often accelerate in final phases, and BDAG’s momentum suggests sellout could come sooner than expected. With long-term speculation pointing to $1, the ROI potential exceeds 62,000%, making BDAG stand out as the best crypto presale of 2025.

Summing Up

Litecoin and Polygon both offer strong Q4 setups. Litecoin’s improving hashrate and supportive structure suggest a path to $150+, while Polygon’s Rio upgrade and POL migration provide catalysts for a breakout above $0.29. Both carry potential, though gains may be measured.

BlockDAG, however, is showing a different trajectory. With over $415M raised, adoption proven through millions of miners, and cultural visibility secured through the BWT Alpine Formula 1® Team partnership, it is positioning itself as the best crypto presale of 2025. At $0.0013, BDAG presents a rare asymmetric opportunity in a market that rewards both adoption and credibility.
