This is a concept for what an order book would look like for GPU compute instead of the current listing model. It would use standardized SKUs so users know what they are getting. Its pre product, I'm curious to know what people think.
Regarding "verified" and "secure cloud", the idea is to have "terms". Each contract can list requirements. For example, we have secure/enterprise gpu owners who are required to collect KYC for anyone using their gpus. This can be specified as a "term" on the contract.
For the gpu owner:
list an open 4090 contract, anyone can redeem:
gpubook provider sell 4090-standard-v1 --date 2026-06-01 --ask 8.40 --terms open
list a secure/enterprise contract that requires buyer identity + compliance info:
gpubook provider sell h100-premium-v1 --date 2026-06-01 --ask 42.00 --terms identity,organization,compliance,workload
For the gpu buyer:
only buy from AAA-rated providers, and only if the terms are open:
gpubook buy h100-premium-v1 --date 2026-06-01 --bid 39.00 --min-rating AAA --open-only
buy from at least A-rated providers, and accept enterprise/KYC terms:
gpubook buy h100-premium-v1 --date 2026-06-01 --bid 42.00 --min-rating A --accept-requirements identity,organization,compliance,workload
So the book is still one market for h100-premium-v1, but each order carries its terms. A bid only matches an ask if the price crosses, the provider rating is high enough for the buyer, and the buyer has accepted the contract’s requirements. Open contracts and enterprise/KYC contracts can sit on the same book, but buyers can filter or restrict what they’re willing to take.
