Etherente : Marketplace of tokenized Real Estate Investment

Important : This project is for educational purposes only and the source code shouldn't be use in production

Description

Etherente is a marketplace for buying and exchanging ERC 20 tokens of real estate 🏡 investments in order to receive a rent each month powered by blockchain technology, inspired by the US RealT plateform. Ownership in most real estate properties is determined by paper deeds, on the Ethereum blockchain, on the other hand, they are denominated by digital tokens. Etherente replaces paper deeds with digital tokens; a new mechanism for asset ownership, based on the Ethereum blockchain.

Reminder: this project is for educational purposes only, no ownership is transmitted through this project.
