Arjun(@clipsofcrypto):"Nvidia is now the Federal Reserve of AI" Qiao and Imran on the financing moat Nvidia is building around its own chips "There was news of Jensen working with BlackRock and Wall Street banks, trying to turn the Nvidia chips into collateral so that the neoclouds can pledge the GPUs as collateral to get financing. Because right now it's hard for the neoclouds or the new data centers to get financing to build the data centers in advance of the demand." "Because the thing is, the hyperscalers, they're able to do it, like Google, Amazon." Imran: "They have infinite funds, they can issue debt." "Their balance sheet is so big that they can build ahead of the demand, whereas the smaller neoclouds and data centers, they can't." "So how do they do that? Well, they can use the Nvidia chips as collateral to borrow money for all that build out. So now the Nvidia chips, or at least Jensen, hopes that the Nvidia chips are going to become a new asset class to use for collateral. Imran: "I mean, it's in his best favour, then he reigns supreme, like Nvidia chips are trading publicly, like no one can compete with that." "Because if you're a new data center, if you want to build ahead of the demand, the only chips you can buy to do that is Nvidia chips, because no one else will give you the kind of financing."
