Compute and inference are markets. Build the exchange.

AI infrastructure should be traded like a financial asset that can be bought and sold digitally at market rates. For compute, think compute.exchange. For inference, think an open market where buyers purchase discounted model calls and sellers monetize surplus serving capacity. Want compute or inference? Purchase the token. Have capacity? Sell the token. Under the hood, this could work like a stablecoin, with whitelisted mint/redeem to ensure only verified providers can supply capacity and only verified purchasers can redeem it. Like stablecoins and futures, most traders would never take delivery, but they could participate in the market. Have a better solution? Build it. The core idea is simple: AI infrastructure should be tradeable, instantly and cheaply.
