“Investors increasingly want to trade compute like a commodity, betting it could make the historically expensive AI buildout more sustainable and efficient.”

“Operators building compute-intensive products should watch CME and ICE futures launches closely — hedging tools could materially change how AI infrastructure costs are managed and budgeted.”
