4-bullet brief | narrative

Kalshi prices a 99% chance the H200 hourly compute rate stays above $5.49 through December 31.
24h volume of $27K is 83% of all-time flow, nearly the entire contract history printed today.
Surge implies a repricing event in GPU cloud markets, possibly a new rate card or capacity announcement, that validated elevated pricing.
Resolves December 31, 2026; at 99% this is functionally a settled view.
