Editorial interest 88/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An interactive fictional exchange where houses, watches, cars, sheds, and hostile neighbor listings become leveraged perpetual markets.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-21 issue.

Why it surfaced

ILLIQUID turns ordinary possessions into synthetic assets with mark prices, funding, liquidations, and formal Notices of Listing. Its rulebook insists that ownership need not be verified—only conviction—and the site is unusually careful to explain that the whole exchange is paper, fictional, and non-binding.
