# HOW IT WORKS

Eroteme is using the Ethereum Protocol to mint Tokens which are then stored on the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), which will be immediately tradable no need for any authorisation Just a Metamash account with ETH for gas fees. To the user it's as easy as just clicking and buy.

Note: Metadata stored on the IPFS such as the answer to the question is encrypted and on decrypted for the buyer on the Eroteme Platform
