China's Moonshot AI just dropped Kimi K3.1 Pro and it's actually competitive
65.7% on Terminal Bench 4.0
- Nearly matching Claude Opus 5.5 (66.4%)
- Crushing GPT 6 Astra (58.2%)
Chinese AI models are no longer playing catch-up. They're at the table.
This matters for crypto devs - more model competition = lower API costs = better margins for AI agent protocols.
Watch the AI x crypto narrative heat up as Eastern models reach parity with Western ones. Could shift where the next wave of AI infrastructure gets built.
