10-29 11:22	Injective	Other	The cost of AI compute is becoming a major financial market, and Injective is now making it possible to hedge that cost with options. Hundreds of billions of dollars are flowing into AI infrastructure, with demand expected to accelerate as model training, inference and autonomous agents scale globally. Yet despite this growth, financial markets for GPU compute remain largely undeveloped. Injective recently introduced the Super Intelligence Compute Index ($SICI), the first onchain index tracking rental prices across five NVIDIA GPUs. Now, with the launch of Injective Options, that same index can be used to hedge against changes in GPU pricing. → AI companies can purchase $SICI calls to help protect against rising compute costs. → GPU infrastructure providers can purchase puts to help offset declining rental prices. This is only one example of what’s now possible. Developers can leverage the recently unveiled new options infrastructure on $INJ to launch white label exchanges, create custom derivatives markets and build entirely new financial products without developing the underlying technology from scratch. The initial launch also supports options across US equities, gold, silver and oil, with fully collateralized contracts backed by native Injective USDC. As the AI economy grows, Injective is bringing the financial infrastructure needed to trade and manage its underlying costs onchain. Watch the complete demo for executing AI compute index options on Injective below 👇 @injective on X ↗
