> **Visual Note:** **Caption:** A WSJ exclusive headline announces "Stripe in Talks to Buy Buzzy AI-Model Marketplace OpenRouter," noting the NYC startup was most recently valued at $1.3 billion but could fetch around $10 billion in a sale.

**Relation to post:** The image confirms the $10B acquisition figure for OpenRouter, which the post uses to highlight the immense value of a centralized LLM API layer—contrasting it with the underappreciated on-chain alternative, $surplus, which ranks #3 by transactions on Base despite the token being down 70%.  

> 
> "Stripe wanting to pay $10B for OpenRouter tells you what a neutral API layer between apps and LLMs is worth on the centralized side.

meanwhile OpenRouter onchain metrics quietly did 50x in 2 months and the token's down 70% anyway.

$surplus is also #3 app by txs on Base, ahead"
