Web2 asset liquidity refers to the ease with which assets from traditional internet platforms can be bought, sold, or exchanged. This concept applies to digital goods, intellectual property, or data existing within centralized online services and applications, such as in-game items or social media accounts. Historically, these assets often lacked true ownership and a robust secondary market, limiting their transferability and financial utility. The liquidity of such assets is typically constrained by platform-specific rules and centralized control.
Context
The current discussion around Web2 asset liquidity centers on the potential for blockchain technology to enhance the tradability and ownership of these assets. A key debate involves the tokenization of existing Web2 assets, transforming them into verifiable digital properties on a blockchain. Future developments will likely include bridging mechanisms that allow Web2 assets to be represented as NFTs, thereby accessing decentralized secondary markets and improving their overall liquidity and financialization.
