P2P marketplaces Live data

Lium.

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.

When to pick Lium

Best for

Cost-sensitive experimentation and hobbyist training.
Batch inference where occasional host swaps are fine.
Anyone willing to filter hosts by reliability score.

Avoid for

Production inference with strict latency SLAs.
Multi-host distributed training — hosts don't share infrastructure.
Workloads with data-residency or compliance requirements.

Frequently asked

How is Lium billing measured?

Most providers bill per-second once the instance is running, with a small minimum (often 60 seconds). Some first-party clouds round up to the minute. Headline $/hr is the right comparison unit.

Which regions does Lium offer GPUs in?

P2P marketplaces aggregate hosts worldwide so region varies per offer. First-party clouds and hyperscalers expose explicit region pickers (US, EU, APAC). Filter on the provider's site after clicking through if region matters.

Does Lium offer an SLA?

Hyperscalers (AWS, GCP, Azure, Oracle) publish formal SLAs. First-party clouds (Lambda, CoreWeave) offer support contracts. P2P marketplaces and decentralized networks have no SLA — uptime depends on the individual host.

What's the refund / cancellation policy on Lium?

Per-second billing means you only pay for compute used — stop the instance and billing stops. Pre-paid credits and committed-use discounts have provider-specific terms; check the provider's billing docs before pre-paying.
