Overview: What Is the Buy/Sell Feature?

The Buy/Sell feature in Liquidity.io enables investors to trade tokenized private assets directly on the platform.

This feature lets you:

• Buy tokenized shares or assets listed on Liquidity’s secondary marketplace.
  
  
• Sell your holdings when you wish to exit or take profits.
  
  
• Participate in real-time, peer-to-peer trading, similar to a traditional exchange but for private market assets.

‍

It’s designed for speed, security, and seamless execution, bringing liquidity to previously illiquid investments.

Use Cases

• ‍Sell
