# System Overview

Beramarket technical design is driven by two tenets:\
\
1\) **General marketplace features** like buying, listing, selling, sweeping, bridging, and NFT aggregation offer important value and allow for a free market around creativity to grow on any chain.\
\
2\) Smart contracts can allow **gamified liquidity provision**, creating **autonomous free markets** that grow perpetual price floor liquidity for NFTs.\
\
Our liquidity concept is originally inspired by the paper [*Intrinsic Value for Digital Content & the Perpetual Price Floor Liquidity Mechanism, by Carlo Acutis.* ](https://beramarket.gitbook.io/beramarket-wiki/introducing-beramarket/intrinsic-value-for-digital-content-and-the-perpetual-price-floor-liquidity-mechanism)The smart contracts and mechanism design are modeled after the technical paper [*NFT Treasury and Liquidity Concept (NTLC), by Indigo and FullyAllocated*](https://hackmd.io/@ind-igo/ntlc?utm_source=preview-mode\&utm_medium=rec)[*.* ](https://beramarket.gitbook.io/beramarket-wiki/introducing-beramarket/nft-treasury-and-liquidity-concept-ntlc)\

The authors of the above documents have drawn inspiration from each other, as well as protocol owned liquidity models like OlympusDAO, Baseline Markets, among others. The authors are not affiliated with Beramarket. \

The Beramarket backing contracts were originally written by[ JeffX (OlympusDAO, HyacinthAudits)](https://x.com/JeffExtor), with development contributions from [*WraithWorks*](https://x.com/WraithWorksCo), [*Miyamaker*](https://x.com/miyamaker2), and other independent developers. \

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://beramarket.gitbook.io/beramarket-wiki/system-overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
