CoinWorld news, NVIDIA is advancing a project called the "AI Computing Partner Program," committing to provide computing capacity guarantees for participating startup cloud service providers. If their purchased GPUs cannot be rented out, NVIDIA will fund the leaseback of these idle computing resources. In return, NVIDIA will take a share of these cloud providers' revenue or receive stock warrants. Due to the enormous costs of data center construction and GPU procurement, startup cloud providers with lower credit ratings often struggle to obtain financing. NVIDIA's capacity replacement guarantee provides them with key credit backing, helping them secure loans smoothly. By supporting startup cloud providers, NVIDIA aims to reduce its reliance on large customers.

“Capacity backstop” sounds great, but NVIDIA wants to take a cut of the revenue or swap for equity. The interest rate is way higher than what a bank would offer. Do startup cloud commerce providers have a choice? No, they don’t.

Old Huang pulled off a slick move, locking in downstream shipments, shifting the risk, and conveniently snagging equity. Cloud vendors look like they got a protective charm, but they've actually been roped in long ago.
