With right delta v. I mean, if it is in wildely wrong orbit, than it is no more useful than same thing on earth.

- twic 9y agoOoh, that's interesting. Commodities trading makes use of contract specifications which can include the physical location of delivery [1] - futures for delivery of aluminium to Singapore can be a different price to those for delivery to New Orleans. Perhaps the contract specifications for space commodities will name, not particular places, or even orbits, but delta-V zones. So, the asteroids and the earth-moon L2 point might be in the same band, because it doesn't take much energy to move between them, but the surface of the moon and low earth orbit would be different, because, despite having similar delta-Vs when coming from the asteroids, they are expensive to move between - at least, according to the map [2].
