io.net looks to be at the bottom as the AI narrative heats up, and its decentralized GPU network powers actual AI compute, the layer where the real money flows. x.comÂ

AI-compute infrastructure looks attractive as agent demand can grow rapidly while power, grid access, data centers and GPUs take much longer to add. Aethir, io.net and Akash rent compute; Bittensor coordinates subnets. Compute Labs and GAIB finance hardware; Orbio and Cerebro test inference credits. These models differ: marketplace revenue may not reach tokens, and compute is scarce only with the right chips, power, location and customers. x.comÂ
AI infrastructure bottlenecks could give eight stocks as much as 18x upside. Nvidia supplies frontier-model GPUs; Broadcom and Marvell supply custom silicon and networking; TSMC makes advanced chips; Micron supplies sold-out HBM; Vertiv provides power and cooling; Palantir monetizes enterprise AI; Alphabet spans TPUs, research, cloud and apps. The list tracks where AI infrastructure spending is flowing. x.com x.comÂ
Cheaper AI tokens increase usage, which pushes up GPU prices as each dollar buys more intelligence. That is extremely bullish for AI infrastructure companies including Nebius, whose stock looks completely disconnected from its fundamentals, data, tailwinds and management commentary. x.comÂ
Anthropic's customer spending and compute buildout show AI monetizing at scale, a bullish read-through for Nvidia, Broadcom, Alphabet, Amazon, Microsoft, Nebius, CoreWeave and Hut 8. Its IPO filing reports H1 revenue up 14-fold to $16.3B, 11,900+ customers spending $100K+ annually and 1,900+ spending $1M+, alongside $9B in H1 infrastructure spending and about $430B in future compute commitments. x.comÂ
The broad AI trade is among the most undervalued markets in years on a growth-adjusted basis because demand for intelligence keeps rising. Usage of open-weight and closed frontier models keeps climbing, while GPU rental prices are up around 80% this year despite exploding supply. Nvidia, AMD and SpaceX share this demand bet as long as both lines keep rising. x.comÂ
Nvidia's CUDA retains developers, putting it among 12 stocks that could dominate the decade ahead. Nebius's GPU rental price rise signals demand; Fabrinet and Credo supply AI connectivity. DraftKings has betting scale; Microsoft has Azure and an OpenAI partnership; Figma anchors design work; Shopify powers stores. TeraWulf pivots power sites to AI leases; Constellation, the largest US nuclear operator, signs big-tech power deals; Meta spends on AI; Uber has autonomous-vehicle partnerships. x.com … Show more
Agent payments and AI infrastructure make AI crypto one of the strongest early-bull-market narratives. Coinbase's x402 is the clearest signal: agents made 138 million-plus Base transactions, mostly under 10 cents. Bittensor subnets earn outside revenue; Render and Akash supply GPU power; NEAR builds agent rails. Grayscale's AI crypto sector rose 54% in September vs roughly 24% for the broader market. Still early and volatile; rotation may follow if Bitcoin holds a base and the narrative sticks. … Show more
More AI tokens mean more compute demand for Nvidia even as pricing power starts to slip. OpenRouter data via the FT show weekly token use up ~250-fold since January 2025; the FT links the surge to agents' long call chains. Bloomberg's breakdown of a 1 GW AI campus that could cost roughly $30B puts well over half the bill in chips and servers, most landing at Nvidia as GPU racks. Servers wear out in 5-6 years, making AI capex a recurring chip refresh. x.com x.com x.com x.com x.com x.com x.comÂ
Cheaper open-weight models make AI infrastructure more valuable, since falling cost per token creates more compute demand, as Jevons saw with coal. Chamath predicts top models will soon be open source; if models are free, the moat moves to power, land, buildings and chips in the ground, and supply grows only at the speed of substations. IREN has 5GW secured and $1B ARR; Nebius and CoreWeave sell compute; Cipher and TeraWulf rent buildings; Micron has pricing power; Credo and Lumentum move data. … Show more
Inference demand, not model release cadence, drives AI infrastructure, so dips in inference suppliers are unwarranted. Anthropic's CEO, with OpenAI's Sam Altman agreeing, committed only to third-party evaluations before releases, saying pacing does not mean halting training. Even if releases slowed, inference demand keeps climbing and older models need more infrastructure, benefiting Nvidia's GPUs, Micron's memory, Astera Labs' GPU connectivity, Marvell and Broadcom. x.com x.com x.comÂ
