Fictional registry preview

Nothing lists without an active publisher program.

The registry versions the transfer authority, supported asset types, eligibility rules, fees, finality, outages, and kill switch before a digital listing can exist.

Fail closedMissing, expired, paused, or unverifiable permission blocks the marketplace action.

Versioned rulesEvery listing and quote snapshots the program version used.

Publisher authorityOwnership and transfer results come from the game or publisher service.

Kill switchPrograms can pause listings, quotes, transfers, capture, and settlement independently.
