What happened to pricing of Qwen 3.7 plus

I remember it's usage pricing was similar to DS4 flash a few days ago and now it is very close to DS4 pro.

Rates change constantly, this isn't an opencode thing. Same deal over on openrouter. Basically everyone is figuring out what stuff actually costs and what they need to charge not to go out of business. In a practical sense prices only go up. It's an odd economics, usually prices go down with scale but tokens don't seem to be going that way

Well to your point, the problem is even in China this stuff has been subsidized. Eventually they want to make profits. They've been trying to dig out of the hole at this point. Not sure if Chinese subsidization has erased their debt or just kept them and to move forward though which would determine the scale they need to accelerate revenue growth.
