I'm currently using a 5080 GPU. I was thinking about upgrading to a 5090, but the ones sold domestically are all heavily downgraded 5090DV2s, and they still cost 23,000 RMB. The overseas version of the 5090, without warranty, starts at 36,000 RMB.
Recently, I checked again, and the 5090 is now over 40,000 RMB. Can you believe this thing launched at $1,999, which was just 15,000 RMB? You could buy it, game on it for two years, and then sell it for 35,000 RMB—someone would definitely take it.
It got me thinking: if GPU companies have stocks that people trade, why isn’t there a futures market for computing power prices or hardware prices themselves?
In the AI era, computing power and hardware like GPUs should eventually become one of humanity's universal currencies, right?
Then I came across @Travix_fi. It's one of the few platforms offering leasing contracts for computing power prices, including B200 and H100. Computing power prices clearly fluctuate in tandem with hardware prices.
To be honest, traditional crypto Perp DEXs are way too homogeneous right now. If you don’t align with agents or emerging product contracts, it’s really hard to attract users and create differentiated competition.
That said, Travix’s seed round was backed by Amber and a few other major institutions.
Their testnet is decent, and the mainnet is in progress. It’s a project worth keeping an eye on.
Currently, they’re working on the Agentic Omnibroker: a single account for trading crypto, U.S. stocks, East Asian assets, and computing power RWAs.
Feels like it has a lot of differentiation and room for imagination.
