How to Publish on the Blockchain with RicoMatrix
The digital world is evolving, and the way we own and share knowledge is changing forever. For too long, authors have been at the mercy of centralized platforms that take massive cuts and offer little transparency. RicoMatrix.com is shifting the power back to the creators.
By leveraging blockchain technology, we’ve built a transparent, fair, and rewarding ecosystem. In this guide, we’ll show you exactly how to publish on the blockchain, how readers can buy your work, and how revenue is shared fairly with the community.
What Does it Mean to Publish on the Blockchain?
When you publish on the blockchain with RicoMatrix, you aren’t just uploading a file; you are minting a Soulbound NFT (ERC-1155)
The Power of Soulbound NFTs
Permanent Ownership: Once a reader buys your book, it is “bound” to their wallet. It cannot be moved or resold, ensuring your intellectual property is protected from secondary market piracy.
Censorship Resistant: Your book is hosted on IPFS (InterPlanetary File System), a decentralized storage network. This means your work stays online and accessible forever, independent of any single server
Transparent Royalties: Every transaction is recorded on the public ledger, ensuring you get paid exactly what you are owed, instantly
How to List Your Book: Step-by-Step
RicoMatrix makes it easy for any author to transition into Web3. Here is how you can publish on the blockchain today:
1. Connect and Prepare
First, visit RicoMatrix.com and connect your Web3 wallet (like MetaMask or SafePal). You will need a PDF version of your book and a high-quality thumbnail (cover image).
2. Automated Moderation
Submit your book for “Automated Fingerprint Moderation.” Our AI scans the content to ensure it meets community standards and is free from copyright violations.
3. Finalize the Listing
Once approved, you will see a “Listing Readiness” dashboard. To officially publish on the blockchain, the system confirms:
IPFS Storage: Your book is safely stored on the decentralized web.
Listing Fees: A small fee of 3 USDT and 100 RICO tokens is required.
The RICO Burn: The 100 RICO tokens used for listing are automatically burned, reducing the total supply and increasing the value of the ecosystem for everyone.
4. Set Your Price
You choose the price for your book in USDT. Click “List on the Blockchain,” sign the transaction, and your book is live for the world to see!
How Users Buy and Gift Books
Buying a book on RicoMatrix is a seamless, secure experience:
Direct Purchase: Readers pay the USDT price and instantly receive the Soulbound NFT in their wallet.
Gifting: Want to share knowledge? You can enter a friend’s wallet address and “Gift” the book directly to them.
The Purchase Burn: Every time someone buys a book, 5 RICO tokens are burned, further supporting the token’s scarcity.
