GPU Compute Futures?🖥️ Starting October 5th, CME Group will start offering Computer Futures contracts in collaboration with Silicon Data. These futures aim to track the hourly rental price of Al chips and standardize GPU hours into a tradable commodity with a publicly available price, similar to existing commodities like...

Announcing ComputeConnect, the financial industry’s first exchange-for-physical (EFP) network for compute, coming soon from Architect and Compute Desk. ComputeConnect links US exchange-traded compute futures to compute capacity delivery. Exchange-listed cash-settled compute futures are entering US markets to correct course on the current AI economy, reorienting debt to long-term growth: • Creating price discovery and transparency independent of any single capacity provider. • Establishing a forward curve for measuring deprecation and forecasting supply and demand. • Providing financial hedges for compute consumers and producers. • Enabling hedge funds, ETF companies, and traders to gain long and short financial exposure to compute. US cash-settled compute futures lack a physical delivery mechanism, and ComputeConnect fills this gap. Existing physically settled futures such as energy and agriculturals require their clearing house (DCO) to set a uniform standard for the grade and delivery method for the underlying commodity. Compute, by contrast, is highly fragmented, heterogeneous, and rapidly evolving, making it infeasible for any single DCO to define and enforce comparable standards. ComputeConnect establishes a network of compute capacity providers and links the network with Architect’s US futures products using exchange-for-physicals (EFPs), OTC contracts in which futures positions are exchanged for the assets the futures track. EFPs allow counterparties to negotiate the grade, timing, location, and other characteristics of the commodity along with a basis tied to the futures settlement price. ComputeConnect will • Build a network of capacity providers and capacity marketplaces. • Establish an open protocol for members of the network to receive delivery requests and advertise available GPUs. • Publish standard basis tables for different SKUs, memory configurations, and locations for GPUs. • Book the futures legs of the transactions to Architect’s DCM, the American Innovation Exchange. • Facilitate and guarantee delivery of capacity using Compute Desk’s ComputeClear platform. The advancement of US AI is constrained at every link in the supply chain: materials, power, chips, capital… The American Innovation Exchange, ComputeConnect, and our industry partners aim to secure compute’s dominance as an American asset class.

Carmen Li , CEO of Silicon Data and Compute Exchange , joins the show to explain how compute is becoming a brand-new asset class. A former energy options market maker at DRW who later ran global data integrations at Bloomberg , Carmen was pre-seeded by DRW founder Don Wilson to build the GPU industry benchmarks. Silicon Data is the referee "the Bloomberg for compute" while Compute Exchange is the liquidity layer where GPUs, tokens and servers change hands. We get into why token price indexes are falling, recent token & model consumption trends, why GPU residual values are above accounting depreciation schedules, and how neoclouds, their lenders, and compute users can hedge GPU exposure to reduce business volatility. • "The A100 has been around for six years at this point, and we still see three-year contracts signed on A100s." Residual values are still hovering above five-year straight-line depreciation. • “we'd definitely be looking at 30 trillion of [GPU] derivatives every year." Topics: Compute as an asset class, GPU indices, CME compute futures, GPU depreciation and useful life, neoclouds, token pricing, AI chip supply chain, 💡 This episode is presented by: Oxford Data Plan –The Home of Alternative Data *Not Investment Advice. Highlights: (0:00) Doug introduces Carmen Li, CEO of Silicon Data and Compute Exchange (0:20) From energy options market maker at DRW to Bloomberg Data, and why AI startups' swinging GPU costs made compute an industry-wide hedging problem (4:09) How DRW founder Don Wilson pre-seeded Silicon Data, and building products with no product or sales team (6:10) Two sides of the coin: Silicon Data as "the Bloomberg for compute" and Compute Exchange as "the Nasdaq for compute" (7:49) Licensing indices to CME for H100 and B200 compute futures, and four ETFs filed before the futures even trade (10:22) What makes an index the source of truth: tracking supply-demand, resisting manipulation, staying neutral (12:57) Normalizing 50 B200 server configurations, and what earns a premium or a discount to the benchmark (16:04) Sizing the market: from 1–3 trillion in spot compute to a potential 30 trillion in derivatives notional (18:13) Who hedges first: neoclouds, hyperscalers and the financiers holding GPUs on their balance sheets (21:06) Michael Burry's depreciation bear case vs. the physical market: A100s still signing three-year contracts after six years (22:49) Why older chips stay productive: cooling, floor weight, wait times and the second-hand market (26:20) 300+ neoclouds and why more data sources make an index harder to manipulate (28:48) B200s at ~$5 per GPU hour, the implied forward curve and the shift into contango (31:18) Why an index provider can't give forward guidance, or own the assets it measures (33:59) Token indices on the Bloomberg Terminal, and a leading indicator for AI revenue (37:03) Why token prices are falling: workflows moving to open-source and open-weight models (38:51) Token pricing has no transparency, and why customers will demand control (41:49) Where to invest in the AI stack, lessons from the internet era and why "AI is a gigantic baby" (45:03) Homegrown silicon, fab capacity and why a hundred chip designers can't create a bubble (48:56) Why compute futures enable price discovery, not a bubble (49:29) Running a data company and a marketplace at the same time (52:47) Carmen's lesson for entrepreneurs: pick something you love (54:08) The vision: the liquidity provider and the referee for every layer of the cake Research Sponsors: Fiscal.ai - Delivering Modern Financial Data Infrastructure. 15% discount with code PITCH AlphaSense Grade AI Carbon Arc Infrastructure for the AI Economy Pitch The PM Links: 📩Early episode drops episode feedback on Substack Daily industry chatter and market color on LinkedIn Carmen Li Links: Carmen LI on LinkedIn: Silicon Data: Compute Exchange:
