> **Visual Note:** A promotional graphic for io.net features a world map dotted with blue location markers and the headline "Data Sovereignty in the Age of AI: Why Location Matters for Training and Inference," visually reinforcing the blog post's message that geographically distributed GPU resources are essential for cost-efficient AI training rather than compliance alone.  

> 
> "Cross-Atlantic training run: ~$71K/year in wasted GPU idle time.

EU-pinned nodes on 
io.net: ~$1,200.

Compliance isn't the expensive part. 

Ignoring geography is.

> **Visual Note:** The image shows a 1-day price chart for IO/USDT on TradingView, displaying a dramatic price crash from highs around $6,000 in late 2023 down to approximately $0.40-$0.50 by 2026, with a highlighted "Average" entry point marked around $0.70, matching the poster's average cost basis. The visible ticker "IO" and current price level illustrate the steep decline the poster is referencing in their post about holding IO at a $0.70 average entry price.

And historically, that’s where things get interesting.

First came brutal seller pressure.

Then another leg lower.

Price has basically stopped moving.

Months of compression around $0.12 while attention"
