WHAT IT IS?
Gilgamesh is a self-governing, knowledge-sharing social network platform powered by Ethereum smart contracts, IPFS and blockchain technology to create a secure, fair, and engaging ecosystem that connects readers, critics, authors, and self-publishing service providers to influence the book industry and remove the role of publishers as the middleman between the flow of knowledge from authors to readers.
THE PROBLEM
THE SOLUTION
The platform is an open market for users to socialize; find, buy, review, and discuss books; and directly influence the publishing industry. Authors will be able to publish their work through service providers and receive the full financial benefit of their sales on the platform, which will bring new authors into the market and influence the way people consume books.
WHY BLOCKCHAIN AND THE TOKEN
Readers could buy books for GIL tokens, which are internal currency of the platform and which they could earn by their activity or simply buy it through cryptocurrency exchanges where GILs are tradeable.
The self-publishing platform will allow for the transfer of GIL between authors and self-publishing service providers and will act as a token earning source for the Gilgamesh platform. Self-publishing service providers include: book designers, copy editors, distributors, book printers, and marketers, who advertise their services on the platform to make valuable connections and earn GIL as income.
Ethereum smart contracts, IPFS, and blockchain technologies creates a transparent, censorship-free and secure ecosystem for the book market.
TOKEN SALE
Gilgamesh Token Sale is already opened to the public from Jan 15th, 2018 4:00 PM (16:00) UTC and will run for 10 weeks until March 26th, 2018 4:00 PM (16:00) UTC
