# Verification

The verification process in the Toknox app ensures the authenticity and integrity of documents by leveraging the Algorand blockchain and IPFS.

Users can upload a document file directly. The system then calculates the document's hash SHA-256, generates the unique asset name, searches for the original tokenization on the Algorand blockchain through the Algorand Indexer, retrieves the Asset's metadata from IPFS, and displays the details within the app.

### Now, let's see how this works in a practical scenario
