Challenge

Currently when you buy an eBook or Audiobook, you do not own it – you only bought a license to view it. And it’s stuck forever on that retailer’s platform. You can never give it away or sell it. Readers deserve to truly own the digital goods they purchase.

‍

Solution

Book harnesses the power of Web3 technology, using NMKR’s API to make this possible and forever change digital reading. These are not public NFT images of book covers – they are fully Decentralized Encrypted Assets (DEAs). They are the entire book, fully decentralized and living on-chain forever.

For the first time ever, readers are now able to buy and truly own their eBooks and Audiobooks and can sell them on secondary marketplaces. Plus, authors and publishers earn royalties on the secondary sales of their books in perpetuity – rewarding creators for their hard work.
