Inara World is a publishing platform that is working to create a new, tokenized economy for ebooks. Its focus is on solving the revenue and engagement challenges that authors face in the traditional publishing market.
The core of Inara's service is its "Streaming Ebooks" platform. This innovative model allows readers to pay for what they read, one page at a time, through a system of micropayments. This eliminates the need for readers to purchase an entire book upfront or to subscribe to a service. For authors, the platform provides a direct and transparent revenue stream, where they are paid for every page that is read.
The entire Inara World platform is built on the Hedera network. This integration is fundamental to the platform's ability to process a high volume of micropayments in a fast, secure, and cost-effective manner. By using Hedera, Inara provides a seamless and scalable solution for its tokenized ebook economy, creating a more equitable and engaging experience for both authors and readers.
