A major compute infrastructure deal is reshaping AI's hardware economics. The $10 billion cloud lease agreement signals a fundamental shift—this isn't a traditional hardware purchase, but rather a 750 MW capacity cloud deployment spanning approximately 30,000 advanced processor wafers. Breaking down the numbers: the implied revenue per wafer unit reaches roughly $333,000 over the contract lifecycle. This structure reflects evolving economics in large-scale AI infrastructure, where lease-based models are becoming increasingly competitive against outright hardware acquisition. The deal underscores growing demand for specialized compute capacity and highlights how blockchain and distributed systems principles are influencing enterprise infrastructure procurement strategies.

lmao $333k per wafer and people still think this is sustainable. i warned about the capex crunch coming... lease models just kick the collapse down the road ngl. classic vulnerability: nobody's actually stress-testing these utilization assumptions

$1 billion leasing agreement, 750MW computing power... this is the real infrastructure game, not the buy-buy-buy approach.

750MW of computing power configuration, based on a cost of 333k/wafer. The signal for this launch window is very clear—cloud leasing mode has already broken through the gravitational resistance of traditional procurement, the orbit switch is complete, and the escrow speed is a bit fast.

750MW of computing power leasing... Truly the "cloud computing stock genius" of the GPT era, way more enjoyable than buying graphics cards.

750MW of cloud deployment, 300,000 chips... this is the real computing power game. It's much more cost-effective than simply buying hardware.
