Provider comparisons
Lium vs Vast.ai
GPU marketplace — independent providers list machines and set their own prices, so rates move with competition rather than a fixed rate card. Renters top up by card or crypto and are billed per second, deploying containerized pods with persistent volumes. Almost all capacity is datacenter "secure" tier (a spot tier exists and can be reclaimed by its provider at any time). Note that a third of nodes have a minimum order of more than one GPU.
