Project Description

RESHOW is a new web-3 service that is changing the way we think about interacting with paper books. It is a platform that not only makes books more accessible, but also allows people to earn money from their book collections.

Three Key Entities, One Unified Ecosystem:

In RESHOW, we have three main entities that create a symbiotic ecosystem: Readers, Sharers, and Owners. These entities interact seamlessly to create a mutually beneficial environment that redefines the way we experience books.

Reader: The core of RESHOW's community, readers enjoy cost-effective access to a diverse range of modern books within curated libraries, saving money without compromising on choice or quality.

Sharer: Sharers play a pivotal role by contributing their own books to RESHOW's libraries, earning passive income as readers engage with their collections, all managed by the library owner.

Owner: Library owners are the architects of RESHOW's ecosystem, creating spaces where readers access a wide variety of books, including sharer-contributed titles, while earning income through book rentals and managing the entire process.

In essence, RESHOW stands as a unique platform that combines the benefits of digital access, cost-effectiveness, earning opportunities, and environmental consciousness. While traditional libraries, bookshops, and bookcrossing have their own merits, RESHOW's innovative approach addresses the evolving needs of readers, sharers, and owners in a technology-driven world.

CASES

In poor countries, RESHOW allows you to read your favourite literature without breaking your budget

Emma is an avid reader who loves to discover new books. Recently, a whole series of books by her favourite author was published. In the country where Emma lives it is very expensive to buy new books, and the local library has no modern literature at all. But there is another option - RESHOW service. By renting books, she gets a few weeks of exciting reading without breaking her budget.

RESHOW's environmentally conscious approach is useful in a wealthy country

Sarah, a conscious consumer and avid reader, lives in a wealthy country where environmental awareness is high. She appreciates the value of reusing resources to reduce her carbon footprint. Instead of buying new books every time she wants to read, Sarah joins RESHOW.

How it's Made

At the moment we are using the following affiliate networks: Optimism, Base, ZORA, Mod. In the course of testing and user feedback, we will be more specific with the network. Our smart contract interacts with the Chainlink oracle, from which we get the current price. To get data about a book, we interact with the Google Books API.
