Physical Settlement
A settlement method in financial transactions that requires the seller to actually deliver the underlying asset (such as GPU resources) at contract expiry rather than paying the price difference in cash, ensuring that the value of the transaction is anchored to real hardware delivery.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Physical settlement requires the seller to actually deliver usable GPU resources at the agreed time, and the transaction value is anchored to real hardware delivery.
Physical settlement means market design must handle engineering issues such as delivery verification, time window alignment, and failure replacement.
By combining GPU trading, physical settlement, and independent markets, compute transforms from a static resource category into a composable, orchestratable infrastructure layer.
