From LLMs to Agents: Why Context Engineering Needs Decentralized Infrastructure
Visual representation of decentralized context infrastructure connecting AI agents and models in a Web3 environment
AI is evolving beyond prompts
Today’s leading tech firms—like Meta, Apple, and Microsoft—are shifting from LLM chatbots to agent-based systems powered by real-time reasoning, memory, and multimodal capabilities.
But this evolution brings a new challenge: context.
From Prompts to Context Engineering
As highlighted in recent research, the future of intelligent systems depends not just on bigger models—but on better context.
Context engineering involves delivering LLMs:
Dynamic user history
Long-term memory
Real-time tools and signals
Model-agnostic system prompts
Secure, verifiable execution
This shift makes the infrastructure behind AI more important than the models themselves.
Why Centralized Context Is a Risk
Major players are struggling:
Meta is poaching top AI minds but rethinking whether to keep Llama at the core
Apple may abandon its own models, leaning on Anthropic or OpenAI
Closed ecosystems limit context portability, transparency, and long-term AI utility
In contrast, context in decentralized systems is:
Persistent
Permissionless
Interoperable across agents and models
Owned and controlled by users
