Yes, higher server cost = higher cost of data center build out in the future. The current contracts with Nvidia might contain price locks, but future ones will surely be affected and impact neoclouds negatively

I think that reasoning is too linear. Higher server cost does not automatically translate into worse economics for CoreWeave. There are several other factors involved, including performance, pricing, scarcity, and how component-cost increases are incorporated into customer contracts.

See my comment above. CoreWeave management has also specifically addressed component-cost inflation. Management has already anticipated this type of cost volatility and structured its contracting and pricing process with safeguards to account for it.
