## Quote — verbatim

> We're doing DeFi rails... we can decouple the ownership of the asset from the earnings... sell the ownership of the asset to someone that wants depreciation... crypto has got incredible primitives — the DePIN primitive and DeFi primitive, when you bring them together you can create amazing financial assets... you can purchase an asset that will give you like 15% return.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Financing structure for superclusters (CDO-like tranching of GPU earnings and depreciation); also partnering with an unnamed big bank that likes GPUs as liquid collateral.
