First of all you will ask why Gilgamesh? What or who is it? The Gilgamesh platform is named for The Epic of Gilgamesh, conclusively considered the first written story, which dates back to 2000 BC and is written in the Sumerian cuneiform language. This is the oldest written story known to exist and is loosely based on the historical King Gilgamesh who ruled Sumerian Uruk (today it’s Iraq) in 2700 BC. The oldest written version of the poem dates to circa 2000 BC. And cuneiform is one of the earliest forms of writing. In its written form the poem denotes the first marker in the evolution from oral storytelling to the tradition of the written word.
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 Gilgamesh platform is a knowledge-sharing social network powered by the Ethereum blockchain and IPFS that socially connects readers, critics, authors, and service providers, and empowers all users to become more knowledgeable and information-centric through a cohesive and engaging user experience. The platform is a resource for knowledge-seekers to unite and create an organized and infallible outlet that transforms the publishing industry and the way readers interact with one another by using Blockchain technology. The platform is an accessible, fair market ecosystem that incentivizes readers, critics, authors, and service providers with “GIL” Tokens in proportion to their contribution through Ethereum smart contracts.
Phase one of the Gilgamesh platform will focus on organically growing user participation through interactive knowledge-sharing and incentives, and will meet a need in the market for a social platform that allows readers and participants in the book reading tradition, to share knowledge with one another in an interactive way.
Phase two of the Gilgamesh platform will establish a network that removes the middleman in the publishing industry to garner more financial support for authors and remove the barrier of access for people to transfer and receive information. The selfpublishing platform will replace traditional publishers, the “middleman”, by employing the marketplace power of Ethereum network, blockchain technology, and IPFS. By removing the middleman, society will experience an increase in the flow of knowledge between authors and consumers since more people (authors) will have affordable, unencumbered access to share knowledge, experience, and expertise with readers.
The Gilgamesh platform is named for The Epic of Gilgamesh, conclusively considered the first written story. The Epic of Gilgamesh dates back to 2000 BC, and is written in the Sumerian cuneiform language.
The problem :
Books have been our main source of knowledge for thousand of years. However, with the advent of new technologies and the internet, there is no simple, meaningful, and productive platform that encourages book readers and authors to connect, engage, and gain knowledge. Instead, the market is full of stagnant and outdated platforms that no longer satisfy the demands of the book community.
The Solution :
The Gilgamesh Platform removes the communication barriers established by eliminanting the publisher as a middleman. As a result, the platform gives readers, critics, and authors an opportunity to control the book market.
Authors can break free a monopolizing business partner (publisher) and gain full control of their.
I think it’s really great idea that creates true and fair interaction between Readers/Critics, Authors, and Service Providers. And Gilgamesh Platform is the world first platform which will do this on blockchain technology through Ethereum smart-contracts and also IPFS technology. IPFS is peer to peer hypermedia protocol and a cryptographic hash that will be used to store critical information such as book files and user information, IPFS is a great match for blockchain based software, we can store large amount of data with IPFS and insert immutable IPFS link into the blockchain transactions or smart contract, this can secure and timestamp our content without having to put the data on the blockchain.
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

GIL tokens will be retained for distribution to users based on productive contributions to the platform. however, every year 5% of tokens will be injected to the platform for 6 years, afterwards it's expected that Gilgamesh Platform earns enough tokens to pay GIL tokens for platform users.
