Moonshot's Kimi K3 took the top spot in frontend coding away from Claude and OpenAI, and it's free. Semiconductor stocks fell, and crypto fell with them.

  • Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies fell after Beijing-based Moonshot AI released Kimi K3, an open-weight coding model that topped Anthropic and OpenAI on a key leaderboard.
  • Kimi K3, a 2.8 trillion-parameter mixture-of-experts model with a one-million-token context window, is set for full public release July 27, challenging assumptions that frontier AI capabilities will remain scarce, expensive and U.S.-controlled.
  • Bitcoin is increasingly trading as a leveraged bet on the AI capital cycle, with its price now moving in tandem with semiconductor and AI infrastructure sentiment rather than crypto-specific, on-chain developments.
