What's not built yet, said plainly:
- public history endpoint + charts — next
- self-serve checkout (pay → auto-provision)
- automated provisioning for users
- slashing, external audit
- options. That's the direction, not a date.

Dev update 👨‍🍳

Redeem is now live in the terminal!

Now you can ask Node Hour for real GPU-hours, priced at the live index, and get SSH on a real machine.

Plus everything we shipped this week 👇

[Node Hour @nodehour]

A GPU hour has a price. Nobody was quoting it.

Trade compute like any other market. Buy GPU hours, sell what you hold, every position marked to a live index built from provider rate cards.

Small fix on the index. ✅

When a provider rate card stops answering,

the last good quote is now carried with its timestamp and marked as such, instead of dropping the market

Fresh vs carried is visible in GET /api/prices.

[Node Hour @nodehour]

The index is the benchmark.

One measured $/GPU-hour per class, every input published. H100 today: $2.69.

On top of it, the terminal:

- Buy it
- Trade it
- Soon, redeem it for SSH on a real machine

Think of it as Brent for compute.

[Node Hour @nodehour]

Most people think buying AI compute is simple:

User -> Cloud -> Pay the rate card.

But that's not how markets work.

Oil has Brent. Gas has Henry Hub. The GPU hour had nothing.

At Node Hour, the GPU hour gets a price, and a market on top of it.

Terminal update.

Mark on H100/USDC was drifting too far from the index on thin books

Tightened the spread logic, amber stays amber

If you see a number that looks off, reply with a screenshot.
