Turn donated art into
real charitable impact.
A permanent on-chain receipt for every gift. Illiqua turns donated artwork into thousands of on-chain contribution receipts, crowdfunding its full value for charities and museums through collectors, artist fans, and donors worldwide.
The problem
A donated artwork has two options. Neither maximises its value.
Display it and unlock no capital. Sell it and lose it forever. A signed artwork appraised at $50,000 sitting in storage helps no one. Illiqua creates a third option.
How it works
From donated print to global crowdfund
A signed original print is donated to a charity or museum. It is held, insured, and authenticated.
The print is mapped to a precise grid by the Patina Protocol. Each cell represents an individual contribution.
Cells are sold as NFT certificates to collectors, artist fans, and the charity's donor community.
As cells sell, a gold mask lifts in the gallery, revealing the artwork piece by piece in real time.
Who participates
Three communities. One crowdfund.
Art collectors who want a verifiable, permanent record of participation in a significant work at an accessible price point.
The artist's own fanbase and community, people who love the work and want a permanent on-chain record of support for it.
The charity's existing donor network, supporters who want a lasting, visible way to show their support on-chain.
Common questions
Illiqua FAQ
The gallery
The artwork never leaves the world.
Every funded work is anchored in a permanent digital gallery, live and publicly viewable. A gold mask covers the artwork at launch. As each cell is purchased, the mask lifts in that exact position, revealing the underlying artwork piece by piece.
The gallery remains open indefinitely. Certificate holders can view the collective work they helped fund and watch the reveal unfold over time. This is not a static NFT collection. It is a living, on-chain crowdfund with a visual heartbeat.
