@aussiesloth mentioned well, to add: the blockchain accepts plain text descriptions, and the blockchain based essentials like price: which is connected to the purchase, feedback, price oracle, and the cash and token systems. So this part is like any transaction: the offer listing, and anyone can query the blockchain to see the listings; however, to more nicely interact with the marketplace system we provide an open source API: [github.com/safex/twmapi](http://github.com/safex/twmapi) This API stores its own database of the safex marketplace from the blockchain. This API can be hosted by anyone, and people can navigate to the URL of that API instance. The API has an admin panel that lets you enable which users, and then which products from the blockchain will be served. In this way the blockchain acts as the internet, and you can put your own “google” ontop of it and curate products OR use it personally and host your own instance of your own store. The API also has the messaging system inside of it. So essentially you can control your own data entirely with your customers. If you use the public API that we will launch initially like all other instances, messages are asymmetrically encrypted with the seller’s public key so that means no one can read the messages coming through the API except who is the recipient. Same with the buyer, with every purchase the wallet generates a new set of keys to communicate with the seller.
