Sichuan's First "Token Computing Power Scenario" Loan Lands in Chengdu

September 8 news, according to Xinhua Finance, the Chengdu branch of Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) issued Sichuan's first "Token Computing Power Scenario" loan to a high-tech enterprise in Chengdu High-tech Zone, marking the first time that "computing power bills" such as enterprise AI computing power consumption and Token procurement costs have been incorporated into the credit evaluation system. The enterprise is mainly engaged in software development, mini-program and App R&D, and AI agent implementation, and previously struggled to obtain loans due to a lack of traditional collateral. ICBC used real computing power bills, token call logs, computing power service contracts, AI business orders, and accounts receivable as core basis for the loan, with funds earmarked for large model API call fees and computing power rental costs, aiming to alleviate the cash flow mismatch pressure of "paying for computing power upfront while project payments arrive later."
