Why use Illiquid?

Illiquid Market offers a unique solution for buying and selling obscure or non-liquid assets in a decentralized and trustless manner.

Illiquid is similar to the popular NFT marketplace OpenSea, but for ERC20 tokens. With Illiquid Market, you can list any asset and find a counterparty, and get paid in any asset of your choice.

Many protocols generate novel ERC-20 tokens, such as LP tokens, vesting tokens, and liquid staking tokens, and creating pool-based DEX liquidity for all of these can be impractical and capital inefficient. Markets where DEX liquidity does not exist are currently served by off-chain OTC books, which are subject to counterparty risk and high fees. Illiquid Market offers a more efficient and secure alternative for trading these assets.

Benefits of Illiquid Market include:

  • Ability to trade any token, no matter how obscure

  • Trustless and decentralized trading experience

  • No need for liquidity providers or central counterparties

  • No counterparty risk or high fees

Use cases for Illiquid Market include:

  • Trading assets with low liquidity or low DEX adoption

  • Trading assets that are not listed on DEXs or OTC books

  • Trading assets in a secure and efficient manner without relying on central parties

  • Integrating Illiquid Market into your own projects or protocols to provide a decentralized trading solution
