No. They still have enormous profit margins on inference with these prices.

Their margins doesn't impact my own assessment of end user pricing as cheap.
Any source to backup this claim, pretty please?
Source? There are a countless number of providers serving open weight models for fun and profit.
I highly doubt there is any margin on those inference pricing.

And yet, OpenCode Go offers DeepSeek flash 6 times cheaper than DeepSeek itself. And they claim they are still profitable.

Part of their model is that not everyone will use their entire quota each month. I don't think I will. I use under $1/day with deepseek v4 flash. We get $60 for the $10 sub.
