According to CoinMeta, the official version of DeepSeek V4 ( V4 GA ) may be postponed until mid-August. Netizens have reported that DeepSeek will soon start a closed beta test for its self-developed harness tool, selecting a small number of users from those who participated in the questionnaire. About 1 to 2 weeks after the closed beta test ends, V4 GA will be made available, with a release date likely to fall between August 10th and 20th. If these reports are true, the official version of DeepSeek V4 may face stronger competition when it goes live, as by then, next-generation models such as GPT-6, Claude Fable v5.1, and GLM-5.5 might already be on the market.
