Gilgamesh Review

Gilgamesh is an interactive social media a platform that promotes the expansion of secured knowledge powered by Ethereum smart contracts and blockchain technology. In this platform, users can receive and transfer knowledge in a safe way because Gilgamesh changes the way users can interact and connect with each other. Their platform encourages widespread learning and education to improve as humans and to become more thoughtful and information-centric than before to ensure a modern educated society.

Since the platform is powered by Ethereum users can earn or buy tokens by productive interactions and engagements that will appear through Ethereum’s smart contracts blockchain, the users with these tokens called GIL tokens can spend them on app goodies or services, they can also, vote on how the platform it’s run with them.

The Gilgamesh social app is the first social media app that prioritizes knowledge sharing and it’s based on the
Ethereum blockchain. The design of the app it’s very simple and clean, it doesn’t feature any type of complicated design that can’t be understood, it’s very straightforward and thanks to its design cognitive load it’s removed on book readers and authors.

The Social aspect of the app it’s very simple as well and nothing new for those that are comfortable using social media platforms, the only that it’s different it’s the concept. You can engage, interact, connect and share your favourite books and authors with other people as well as you can share knowledge through a simple dashboard.

Thanks for your contribution and engagement you can earn GIL tokens, so the more meaningful and constant your contribution to the app is, the more you can earn GIL tokens in a secure way since all the sensitive data is protected, in fact, it’s encrypted and secured in a storage called IPFS and through Ethereum smart contracts. Once you earned GIL tokens you can spend them on books and services.

There it’s also a high level of privacy, since all the sensitive information it’s stored in a decentralized and distributed network there is no censorship.

With this platform, the Gilgamesh creators decided to tackle a modern problem that exists for books readers around the world, the existence of all the outdated social media platforms for authors and readers that don’t longer satisfy neither, so they took the manner into their own hands to fix it. But the problem it’s not only that, the solution it includes both book readers and the authors of the books. Before there wasn’t a way for these two to really connect and engage. Readers couldn’t share their finds with other readers and authors couldn’t get real-time updates and reviews left on their books.

All forms of interaction couldn’t be available because there is also another factor and that it’s that authors have to deal with a middleman, that middleman being the publicist. The book industry it’s run by powerful publishing companies and these companies really limits authors and what they can do to contribute to the market. By maintaining that control publishers can get in the way of the author to not only not contribute directly to the industry but also limit their chances of them retaining the rights to their work and gaining a fair wage for it. Thanks to this control they act as the intermediary in the publication, distribution of the books and the sales, earning a high commission for this without ever having to step down or face threats of losing their position for their contributions to the industry.

They are the middlemen that create communication and access barriers for authors so they can take advantage of the power they hold since they hold all the monetary and legal power and prohibit any type of communication between the authors and another industry service providers. Dealing with all this can cause authors to give up on the idea of publishing their work since self-publishing requires a great sum of money to start with a lot of authors so they leave the industry to earn a fair wage in other industry.

This is when Gilgamesh enters the picture as the solution for these common problems that are still in place within the book industry despite technologic advancements. Gilgamesh it’s not only a knowledge sharing platform but it’s also an open market where users can socialize, buy, review and discuss books while simultaneously influencing the publishing industry. In this open market author and books readers can openly socialize and authors can publish their works through publishing services on the platform and retain the rights and benefits of their sales.

Gilgamesh hopes that this platform can revitalize the book industry and the way people consume books while offering the chance for users to create their own success so they can become happier and intelligent as people.

GIL tokens can be used by authors to pay for the services providers on the platform where they can filter them by type, fee, rating or recommended ones. The Gilgamesh platform can later advertise your book to readers on the platform and they secure the self-pushing of the eBooks on IPFS and Ethereum smart contracts.

With the GIL tokens, Gilgamesh wants to create a conscious and intelligent society that will strive to make meaningful contributions for others to learn and vice versa. It’s a constant sharing of knowledge that it’s going to be beneficial for everyone.

Gilgamesh it’s run by industry professionals that have experience in several industries. Coming out with an app like this to promote a new way to enjoy books and share knowledge making it unique and different from all the other social media platforms catered to book readers and authors.

It’s simple, clean, straightforward and beneficial for those who know how to best the best out of it. The good thing about it’s that you don’t need to be an expert in Ethereum to be able to make a good use of the GIL tokens, the tokens are simply powered by them and for the platform and nothing else. You can’t use the GIL tokens outside of the platform because they were created to be earned and spent on the platform itself.
It’s highly interactive and built and designed for knowledge seeking individuals.
