Liquidity Layer is an artwork on an ERC-20 token, transforming market activity into a collaborative, generative, self-consuming force.

Each trade leaves a mark. Buys and sells pile up.

Until nothing remains but speculation.

Infrastructure as art

The work operates across multiple layers

1. Visual: Each trade leaves a mark
2. Economic: A self-consuming coin that destroys itself as it's traded
3. Extensions: A growing NFT series, each minted by burning the original coin

Visual layer: Rendering speculation as image

Each buy or sell modifies the image, stacking transactions as visual noise. The more liquidity flows, the more the original artwork disappears.

+ and – elements use a subtractive blend mode: when they overlap, they cancel out, turning black. Over time, these overlaps accumulate, erasing the image instead of revealing it.

Every transaction is a visual trace. But more activity doesn’t bring clarity. It brings void.

With enough volume, the image disappears entirely. Not in a sudden flash, but through slow erosion. A visual record of exchange, fading to darkness.

Economic layer: The self-consuming token

Liquidity Layer doesn’t just visualize speculation. It consumes itself through it.

Initially deployed with 1 billion tokens, the total supply is being slowly reduced as the token is traded.

The project earns 0.5% - 1% of all trading volume involving the token. These rewards are sent to a public, permissionless contract which swaps the rewards for Liquidity Layer tokens and permanently burn them.

This turns every trade, every movement of value, into destruction.

The more speculation there is, the faster the artwork erases itself.

This mechanism extends the core idea of Liquidity Layer. Turning speculation into both medium and message, until nothing remains but proof of participation.
