1) How does this system work?
2) How are we confident this system can't be "faked?"
3) Does this increase the "use" of ether, or does it have nothing to do with cryptocurrency? (Is it basically just an alt coin operating independently from any other cryptocurrency)
Very exciting to see solutions like this becoming operational!
