Don’t listen to what they say.
Watch what they do!
$META president says a newly elected governor who made data centers a campaign issue asked to meet after inauguration:
“As soon as we get past the inauguration, let's meet, because we don't want to lose this investment in our town."
"We don't want these jobs to go elsewhere.”
A few years ago, @elonmusk asked: “Where is Jack Ma?” as China cracked down on its tech entrepreneurs.
Now a US congresswoman @RepYassAnsari threatening @elonmusk with “See you soon” after he criticized her call to pause advanced AI.
This smells like the beginning of political witch hunt. If yes, will it be the beginning of US tech crachdown ?
B300 hourly prices are all over my feed, but I’m not seeing people refer to Silicon Data or Ornn.
CME plans cash-settled compute futures using Silicon Data. If a benchmark isn’t a shared reference in the physical market, how much confidence can it give hedgers?
Bitget last month. Binance and Polymarket this week. Now Chainalysis disclosing a breach.
AI can read through code, spot weaknesses, and help attackers try more ideas at a fraction of the cost. Defenders have to keep up every day. Attackers only need one good day.
Holly, something is cooking

A lot of us have posted about our submissions to the CFTC's compute derivatives RFC. How many of us have had time to read through the other comments?
AI/chips getting crushed all week. If the VARA liquidation rumor is true, maybe that’s the final flush.
Forced sellers out, rebound next?

Everyone is talking about hedging in compute markets: futures, derivatives, credits... Financing structures are popping up everywhere.
But most are skipping a fundamental question:
Who is actually on the other side of the trade?
Thanks @baseposting for the spotlight!
Our mission is to bring transparent price discovery, liquidity, and hedging to AI compute. Starting with inference forwards, building toward a global compute market.
Excited to build on @base!
BASE BATCHES 004 TEAM:
Mercatus AI (@mercatus_ai) is building an open exchange for AI inference on Base.
Spot market for pay-as-you-go usage, plus monthly forwards that settle in inference tokens, priced in a standard unit so usage is comparable across models.
