Your costs are volatile. Lock them in.

GPU prices surge. Cooling costs spike in summer. Bandwidth rates swing quarterly. SmartECN lets you trade against these variables before they hit your P&L.

1

Identify your exposure

Running GPU workloads? Cooling data centers in hot climates? Buying bandwidth? These are all tradeable variables on SmartECN.

2

Choose your instrument

Futures to lock in a price. Binary contracts for event hedges ("Will GPU spot exceed $3/hr?"). Both settle automatically against oracle feeds.

3

Trade on the orderbook

Place orders on a real-time, price-time-priority matching engine. Automated market makers provide liquidity. Settle at expiry or exit early.

What can you hedge?

Real-world cost exposures, traded as financial instruments.

Cloud Compute & GPU

Lock in GPU spot prices before your next training run. Hedge against EC2 rate increases for your production fleet.

GPU-A100-SPOT AWS-EC2-M5XL AWS-S3-USE1

Weather & Cooling

Data center cooling costs spike with temperature. Hedge against heat waves in your co-lo markets. Binary contracts like "Will LA hit 100°F?" give built-in risk limits.

TEMP-LA TEMP-MIA HUMID-NYC

Bandwidth & Transit

IP transit pricing swings with demand. Lock in rates for the next quarter. Trade bandwidth cost futures to stabilize your network budget.

BW-TRANSIT-US CF-LAT-US

Crypto & Commodities

Exposure to BTC, ETH, gold, or FX? Trade futures to lock in exchange rates or commodity prices. Binary contracts for event-driven hedges.

BTC-USD GOLD-OZ EUR-USD

Two ways to trade risk.

FUTURES

Lock in a price

Go long or short on any instrument. Put up 5-20% margin and settle at expiry against live oracle readings. Classic hedging for ongoing cost exposure.

Margin-based (5-20% of notional)
Long or short positions
Auto-settlement against oracle at expiry
BTC-USD-MAR26 — Bitcoin March future
Buy 2.0 @ $98,500 → margin: $19,700 (20%)
BINARY

Bet on an outcome

YES/NO contracts priced $0.01–$0.99. Settles at $1 or $0. Built-in risk limits — max loss is the price you pay. Perfect for event-driven hedges.

Max loss = purchase price (no margin calls)
Price reflects market probability
Oracle-settled: YES ($1) or NO ($0)
BTC-100K-MAR26 — "BTC above $100K?"
Buy YES @ $0.65 → cost: $0.65, max profit: $0.35
