Bittensor boosters argue decentralized training can offset severalfold compute gaps

The post says decentralized training efforts around Bittensor, TAO subnetworks, Chutes, Parallax, Teutonic, and others are looking bullish. It cites a quoted argument that Kimi K3 shows algorithmic, data, and post-training efficiency can offset severalfold compute disadvantages. The implication is that blockchain-based coordination and decentralized training networks may help close the gap against more compute-rich centralized competitors.
