Part 17The weak link pays first
Kakashii noted on September 24 that Oracle entered the AI era already owing tens of billions of dollars.

Kakashii
Kakashii is named in 8 Parts of The Buildout, most recently Part 17: The Guarantee Has No Date. Argued in Part 2 (Exit liquidity), Part 6 (Scarcity as a warning), Part 8 (Guarantees, not faith), Part 10 (A model, not a price), Part 16 (The seller funds its demand).
What Kakashii argued
On the record, by story.
Paraphrased and attributed, with the date and a link where one exists. DeepStack keeps no score of who was right; the dated tests do that work in the open.
Part 16 · The seller funds its demandAug 25, 2026
Nvidia, acting as supplier, investor, financier, and deal broker, introduced Nebius to four major customers worth over $1 billion each in Q1, demonstrating Nebius's dependence on Nvidia for customer acquisition.
Part 10 · A model, not a priceOct 5, 2026
Kakashii calculates that Nvidia's plan to ship over 10 million chips of Blackwell and Rubin by the end of 2026 implies a total required power of roughly 17 to 23 GW, averaging around 20 GW, and questions whether enough data centers are under…
Part 10 · A model, not a priceOct 5, 2026
Kakashii's long-standing thesis, which they say has gained support and validation over time, is that Blackwell GPUs had to be shipped to warehouses because there were not enough compatible datacenters (with the needed cooling and equipment) to…

Oracle's free cash flow was positive every year from FY2018 to FY2024, then turned slightly negative in FY2025 (-0.39B), dropped to -23.69B in FY2026 on 55.66B of cash capex, and sits at -28.72B on a trailing twelve months basis through Q1 FY2027…

Part 08 · Guarantees, not faithSep 24, 2026
Oracle's record Q1 operating cash flow of 23.103B (up 184% YoY) is largely explained by 11.363B of customer prepayments with a significant financing component; excluding that prepayment, operating cash flow would be only about 11.740B (up a more…

Part 06 · Scarcity as a warningAug 20, 2026
Profitability requires mature deployments to fund the next build without another financing wave, a condition that has not yet been met and that revenue, backlog, and gigawatts rising alone do not prove common equity earns an attractive return after…

SpaceX deployed 0.4 gigawatts of nameplate compute in the last quarter while Musk promises more than 10 gigawatts by end-2027 and describes close to 15 gigawatts at the PowerPoint level.

SpaceX's AI segment reveals the industry's bad accounting habits: how AI revenue is counted, what is hidden in construction-in-progress, and where the Nvidia GPUs everyone calls short-supplied actually are.

In The Buildout
Where Kakashii appears.
One line per story, from the story itself.
Part 16The seller funds its demand
Kakashii argued on August 20 that CoreWeave exists mainly to create demand for Nvidia's GPUs: Nvidia is its only GPU supplier and also an investor, customer and sponsor, and its cash spending on equipment came to about 84% of its gross debt proceeds.
The Seller Holds the PaperPart 11Lede
Kakashii, on September 24, reads Oracle's first fiscal quarter the other way: most of the $26 billion rise in remaining performance obligations came prepaid or with the customer's own hardware, so the new contracts need no incremental capital from Oracle.
The Backlog Is Not the QuarterPart 11Funded, not forecast
And Kakashii's September 24 point about Oracle is the strongest word on this side: most of the new obligations arrived prepaid or with the customer's own hardware, so they depend on no one raising capital.
The Backlog Is Not the QuarterPart 11The tests ahead
Oracle reports on December 14: whether new remaining performance obligations keep arriving prepaid or with the customer's own hardware, the condition for Kakashii's reading that capital spending peaks in fiscal 2027 and 2028.
The Backlog Is Not the QuarterPart 10A cheap top
Kakashii estimates that Nvidia’s plan to ship more than 10 million Blackwell and Rubin chips by the end of 2026 implies roughly 20 gigawatts of power, and holds that Blackwell GPUs ended up in warehouses because too few data centers had cooling and equipment.
The Bubble Is in the DenominatorPart 06The rent will move
Kakashii’s figures are spectacular: CoreWeave revenue rose from $229 million in 2023 to $5.1 billion in 2025, active power from about 70 megawatts to more than 1.5 gigawatts, and backlog to $104.2 billion.

Kakashii read the same quarter and found 0.4 gigawatts of compute actually deployed.
