An amazing week is coming to an end but it marks only the beginning of something bigger!

History's first BOOK ICO is LIVE

A huge step forward for Publica and its community is the launch of the first Book ICO. Ever.

A milestone that has been awaited by both our community and the team itself. In general it is also very meaningful for the publishing world as it paves the first steps of a new avenue through which authors will be able to fund their books.

We are excited to see this ICO go through and be the eventual success story!

We also would like to thank our community for their patience and support in the slight delays with the launch.

We can't stress this enough — be sure to participate in the first EVER book ICO: https://publica.com/nomadicmatt/

Here are just a few good reasons to participate in the book ICO:

You SUPPORT PUBLICA’s idea and want to HELP Publica to showcase its success
Not only will You receive token, but the actual BOOK from a best selling author!
The BOOK token is a crypto collectable (you can sell it later, it is an ERC20 token with a limited supply)
We have a giveaway for those who have bought at least one Matt’s BOOK token. Right now if you buy a book you have good chances to win 500 PBL tokens.
The book will be delivered to you (regardless of how many copies are sold)
If everyone will buy 1 book token now, the BOOK ICO will be sold out in few minutes.
Majority of community members have PBL tokens. After showcasing the success more media coverage will follow and talk about PBL, so this will help both the project and tokenholders.

Giveaway campaign

In honor of the first BOOK ICO, we also want to thank our community in a more practical way.

Any supporter of the book ICO that owns the token for “Backpacker's guide to Europe” can take part in the giveaway to win 500 PBL tokens. 5 lucky winners will get the prize that will far outweigh their initial investment!

Apart from entering the giveaway with an owned token, there are several other ways to increase your chances of becoming one of the few lucky ones, be sure to explore them in the link below!
