We're still testing ideas internally and tracking different metrics and improving ideas.

Thank you, everyone, that has been here so far. Let's keep building and pushing the frontier forward.

[Trion @TrionTrades]

GPU compute is one of the biggest markets in the world, and it still has no price everyone trusts.

We want to fix that at Trion, and we want to do it with the industry.

At Trion we're building CMPT, an open benchmark for what GPU compute actually costs. We are counting what people actually paid, not what's listed.

That needs data from the people who run the GPUs: clouds, marketplaces, brokers, resellers. We'd rather license it properly than scrape it. So I'm reaching out to the owners directly.

What's in it for providers:
• your real prices count in the benchmark
• attribution and a fair data-licence deal
• free index access for you and your customers
• a say in the methodology before it's the standard
• later, a way for your customers to lock in compute costs

A benchmark is only worth something if people can trust it. So we'll get everything independently audited: the index methodology, the data pipeline and the smart contracts. And we'll publish the results.

Every commodity that grew up got a trusted price: oil, power, freight, etc. Compute is next bet. The benchmark should be built by the people who make the market.

If you run GPUs my DMs are open. I've reached out reached to all the industry well known names to get this done right.

[Trion @TrionTrades]

@MemeCoinMaxxor @johnarnold Yes we will do audits.

[Trion @TrionTrades]

In this video @JohnArnold is right: compute will only trade like a real commodity once there's either a standard product with deep liquidity or an index the industry trusts. Both are hard. That's the problem we're working on at Trion.

What we have today:

• CMPT, an index of what it costs to rent one NVIDIA H100 GPU for one hour. Instead of indexing "compute" in general, it prices one standard unit.

• It's built from a panel of GPU cloud providers and marketplaces, including executed rental prices from the Akash network.

• Our price oracle publishes every CMPT price on-chain on Robinhood Chain, together with a cryptographic hash of the exact inputs behind it.

• CMPT-USD, a perpetual contract on that price, is in beta.

What we're testing in the background:

• A more reliable way to calculate the index: one that holds steady when a provider's data goes down or goes stale, brings providers in and out gradually instead of all at once, and screens out one-off price spikes until they're confirmed.

What's next:

• A separate product: an S&P 500 for GPUs. A broader index that weights each provider by how much capacity it actually rents out, with caps so no single provider can dominate. The hard part is that almost nobody publishes those numbers, so building a weighting the market can trust is what we're working on.

• We know this is hard, and nobody has fully solved it yet. That's exactly why we want to be at the cutting edge of it: building in the open, testing new methods, and helping set the standards this industry will run on. We have ideas, we're testing them, and we're going to figure it out.

• I'm happy to be taking this on. I have more ideas up my sleeve.

Arnold Ventures Co-Chair @JohnArnold on what’s stopping compute from becoming a real commodity market:

“Compute is not a commodity where one data center is providing the same product as another data center.”

“You either have to deliver into a certain product that has a lot of buyers and a lot of sellers… or you need some type of index that the industry trusts.”

“There just aren’t that many short-term deals. Transparency into those is difficult.”

“The distinctions between the chips and the design of the data center and all the specific needs is just different.”

“Trying to either come up with the physical delivery mechanism or the index that everybody trusts to be right is really hard.”

@AlphaSeeker21 Lets go!

[Trion @TrionTrades]

Thank you for testing out the beta @whoy3k . If anyone would like to test it out join discord and just let me know.

https://t.co/Ap2R64VJM7

Excited to keep building this out. This early in the process and goal is to continue refine and make progress everyday.

I have more ideas that I will continue to share with you all.

[Sonson | CrypτoVangelisτ @whoy3k]

Just got early access to @TrionTrades !

$TRION’s Compute Perp Beta. Building a real market around GPU-hour pricing is a wild idea and compute is starting to get the attention it deserves. The team even sent me real $USDG test funds to try the platform. Now that's what I call 'building progress' in the open!

My first impression: "The platform is better than expected! I can't believe I'm this early!"

[Trion @TrionTrades]

@aglioglioliolio @jing0_ @saucylemonnn @TheFlowHorse @nadoHQ @AmoebaFarm Yes, correct we are doing things differently. It is early on for all these types of markets. There is still a lot to be worked out.

[Trion @TrionTrades]

We're literally paying beta testers.

Get $20 in USDG plus ETH for gas to trade the CMPT-USD perps beta on Robinhood Chain main net.

Join the Discord. Let me know you want to test it and dm an address. Then I will add you to the beta testing group.

[Trion @TrionTrades]

Thank you Dailyupgrade.

Still lots to improve.

[dailyupgrade.sats @upgrade_daily]

I was just given early access to $TRION's Perp Beta for Compute - truly a visionary task to create an options market for as asset that is starting to gain massive attention...

With that being said - was even sent funds to test out the platform and all I can say is 'Impressive'

[Trion @TrionTrades]

First beta tester.

Thank you for testing out the platform.

Already implementing some improvements.

[dailyupgrade.sats @upgrade_daily]

@TrionTrades works well

dev is cooking

[Trion @TrionTrades]

Started sending out friend requests. If you would like to test it, you could join the Discord and just let me know and I can send you the links for testing.

[Trion @TrionTrades]

Trion Trading Competition starts next week.

$3,000 prize pool for the top 5 traders on the CMPT-USD perp beta:
1st $1,200 · 2nd $750 · 3rd $500 · 4th $300 · 5th $250

You can even hook up your AI to trade for you.

[Trion @TrionTrades]

The NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Workstation Edition has officially been purchased.

First GPU of the fleet.

1 down many more to come.

[Trion @TrionTrades]

8 beta testers signed up for Trion so far - looking for 7 more people.

We're putting $20 of USDG straight into each tester's trading account, so they can trade CMPT-USD (the price of one H100 GPU-hour) with real money on mainnet without touching their own funds. No gas needed to get started.

Beta testers get:

- $20 USDG to trade with on mainnet
- A direct line to us for bugs and feedback, and a say in what we build next

sign up below.

[Trion @TrionTrades]

I'll open up all channels later today. I'm about to head out to go buy GPU.

[Trion @TrionTrades]

Trion is on Discord.

Channels for feedback, feature requests and bug reports opening later today.
