@Chevron is burning West Texas gas to spin 2.7GW of turbines so Microsoft can sell GPU time.
Same megawatt, three prices: gas, power, compute. They don't move together.
CME and ICE both launched compute futures on a GPU-hour index last month for exactly this reason.
Just wrapped meetings with Senator Michael Bennet and Senator @Hickenlooper's office alongside @standwithcrypto and @fund_defi .
As a founder and developer, I shared what regulatory clarity would mean for builders in Colorado and made the case for keeping developer protections in place as the Clarity Act moves toward a floor vote.
Thank you to the Senator's staff for the time. 🇺🇸
Excited to be on with the @RevolveToken team here in a bit for a live space here on X.

AI might be a bubble. The build-out isn’t.
The share of U.S. power consumed by data centers is set to increase 3X by 2030, hitting 11.7%. By 2030, they'll consume 606 TWh.
Electrons > parameters. The race to train models has evolved into a race to energize sites.

The AWS east outage is a firm reminder as to why decentralizing your infrastructure is so important.
Critical service outages across exchanges and blockchains led to extreme volatility across tradable assets.
Hopefully you weren’t left holding the bag.
Official tokenomics are launching soon. What are you hoping to see?
