**How Does Ivy Live Work?**
{% endhint %}

In the Ivy Live app, both content creators and other users can earn or spend $IVY tokens in many different areas.

Earned $IVY tokens can be traded on centralized or decentralized exchanges. If a user needs $IVY token to use in the app, they can purchase it from centralized or decentralized exchanges.

In-app earnings are sourced from the $IVY token pool. This pool continues to fill through 3 different channels. 1- Share from Ivy Live usage fee 2- Share from tokens earned from applications 3- Share from Tokenomics oscillation

Additionally, with the Affilate marketing section, 27.65% of Ivy Live usage fees are automatically distributed back to other users.
