Kimi K3 sparks a reset in AI infrastructure value capture, with Bittensor subnets in focus

A post argues that the recent Kimi K3 turn has reset the value-capture gameboard for AI infrastructure. The author says there is now outsized opportunity for Bittensor subnets and broad upside for CPUs, GPUs, hyperscalers, neoclouds, rack makers, and other infrastructure players.
The core claim is that frontier labs may have exposed a weaker business model than markets assumed. If their revenue engine proves unsustainable, the winners may be the layers beneath them rather than the model companies themselves.
