Gilgamesh is a social network for the dissemination of knowledge based on the blockchain, Ethereum, and IPFS. This platform will bring together readers,critics, authors and service providers, and will help users become more educated and informed. This platform will be a source of knowledge, organizing a reliable means of information, transforming publishing activities and user interaction with
by using blockchain technology.

Gilgamesh is an affordable and fair market, which is
to encourage all users tokens "GIL" through a smart contract on the basis of Ethereum.

First of all, the implementation of the platform Gilgamesh all attention will be
given the growth of users over the interaction: the exchange of knowledge and encouragement. Next, there will be the exclusion of intermediaries in the publishing industry to attract support from the authors and remove barriers in the search for and dissemination of information. A platform for self-publication will be created, which can replace the established system of publishing houses, which will have a positive impact on the direct communication of authors and readers.

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 Instead, the market is full of stagnant and outdated platforms that no longer satisfy the demands of the book community.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.
